***I wish for once it wouldn’t rain on a weekend, but I guess my wish is attracting the opposite since Mother Nature seems to want to make it rain all the time this spring.  Today’s Friday Email is all about “Opposites Attract”.  Have a great weekend!***

Normally the belief among many people is that “Opposites Attract.”  I printed something on letterhead for Moise but I put the paper in the printer the wrong way, so it came out upside down and scanned it to him without noticing.  He wasn’t happy.  Maybe I subconsciously thought opposites would attract and he’d be ok with reading something upside down.  I said, well my life is upside down.  He agreed.  I was walking with Moise’s nephew and Damian along this long path straight forward.  I told him let’s turn around.  He said no it’s too far to turn around.  But if we keep walking farther it’s going to be longer because we eventually have to turn around to go back.  I guess he did not think that turning the opposite way would attract us being closer to home.  He saw someone laying on the floor at the park and told me don’t let Damian jump on them. I said last time I gave you the leash isn’t that exactly what you let happen?   He said Damian didn’t listen to him.  A stubborn Boston Terrier telling them to do something attracts them to do the opposite of what you tell them to do.  I told Moise I was bringing Damian to the park and making sure I had some water for him.  He said what about me and the kids.  Fine, I’ll bring some for you.  He asked clean water?  I said no sewer water.  When you attract the idea of wanting clean water you might wind up with the opposite. Junior was finishing up a bag of chips and was dumping the bag upside down in his mouth to get every last crumb out of it.  Well, you can’t blame a guy for getting every bit of his money’s worth, I guess.  Junior was talking to me about highly educated people. I said so like me, right?  He just laughed.  I got the opposite of the reaction I was trying to attract.  Moise told me to push Abby on her bike.  We were flying.  He said you are moving way too fast.  Maybe she asked me to show her how I drive Moise.  I didn’t do the opposite and push her slow.  Moise had a code sent to the Accounting Email.  He asks me to read it for him.  975818.  He’s typing the numbers slowly, so I have to repeat it.  I said do you want me to repeat it backwards (as in the opposite)?  818579.  Repeating the code backwards attracted Moise being angry with me.  He said I know you’re smart you don’t have to prove it.  Smart or smartass?  I told Moise I went to the Yankees/Mets game.  He asked how much it cost. I told him.  He said no way you paid for that ticket.  I said what do you think I’m cheap?  He said we know each other very well.  Junior said he wants to spend one week with me and see everything I do (my routines etc.).  Umm Junior so you basically want to marry me for a week?  If I got married it wouldn’t last a week.  But if I got married to you it wouldn’t last a day.  Now when it comes to doing your timesheet just remember that I’m trying to attract you to do it on time but sometimes I get the opposite of that.  Please do your timesheet on time today and remember if you think opposites always attract then just remember that is not always true as Junior and I prove.

Have a great weekend!
