Letter to the Wicked Witch
by SheenaIgnatia on 02/22 @ 5:27pmDear Mother in law,
It is 9.40pm and it is at least the fifth time you have called today. I don’t know how many more times you have phoned, as I was at work. I dialled 1471 when I got in, and then you called again at 5.30, I didn’t answer it. I just looked at the phone and swore. A lot.
I realise that you have worked yourself up into some kind of son’s fortieth birthday/holiday frenzy and I know you are upset that you don’t get to go to the upmarket carvery for your son’s birthday, but is it really necessary to call five times and on a Monday? I know you haven’t been to work since circa1952 unless you consider your current appointment of Wicked Witch of the West to be a job. But you didn’t have to apply for that one did you? You just sort of are…
