Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for October 01, 2020

Does spending time with myself count as the 5 hours? Then I could have had the job way back when I was born!!! ;)

First, do they taste good?

I’m not falling for your coloured statements, Aunty!

Insanity does not run in our family; it gallops about frantically.

As I said the other day, you were way overdue for another straight jacket. It is very becoming on you, Aunty.

Love to, Aunty! I hope it’s a brand-spanking-new box of crayons! And there better not be any broken ones!

Well, just spend 5 hours with yourself, Aunty. Problem solved.

I’m betting it will be difficult to commute back-and-forth to 1949. Maybe they’ll find a room for you there/then?

If I applied, they would likely keep me as a resident for a while.

But Aunty, I don’t want a job at a Mental Asylum… ☺

Wow, I wish I had the time. That sounds relaxing.

It’s hard to know who’s who in the cuckoo’s nest.

Does anyone in your family suffer from mental illnesses? No, they all seem to enjoy it.

Maybe the POTUS will hang with you. He might even have a rally with no masks to keep things more exciting

No, that’s Biden.

I can’t afford Crayons. My Reality Check bounced.

I had a semester on an acute psych unit. The patients smoked like chimneys. Yes, the therapists used crayons for the patients to draw various things. I hated psych. Got me a fantastic Crayola collection now. I must have over 200 colors now, including scented, glitter, color change, glow in the dark, et cetera.
