I heard my telephone ringing as I was washing my britches after a rough morning dealing with the consequences of sweet and sour pork from a dodgy shop on the corner of my sisters town. I had to buy the pork because it was on special, and all I could afford. This pork caused me SEVERE diarrhoea and gas pains, so much I almost had to go to the emergency. My wheelchair collapsed in on me as I rushed to this call. I was expecting Betty from home nurse care to call, who usually attends to my needs today. As I tried to make my way out of my wheelchair, my left leg got the cramp of a life time! I breathed through each spasm as my gas pains started up again, causing a catastrophic mess for Betty to attend to later on. When I finally got to my telephone, a voicemail was left. Lo AND BEHOLD! It was a Chinese consulate voicemail, I suspect from the CHINESE place I ate at yesterday! Now I will go finish home and away.
