Overdraft

To lessen this OD of mine
I have dried my teabags on the line
The tea's weak, there's no doubt
it needs help up the spout
but at least it's much cheaper than wine.

Very nice, Sharon! I can just picture those teabags on that line--and hmm while you're at it you can actually use this to stain furniture right? or as a soothing patch for your eye---;) hope to chat with you soon again!! ^_^ nikko

Yes yes, this is a good depiction of economic woes. And have you heard of the dad who only lets his family use one or two tiny pieces of TP after they pee? Maybe we are all gonna be like that man one day! Luv, andrea
