For.the.love.of.Zeus.will.you.just.stop.moving

The Wise Guy has me chasing my tail.  While Sweetie was taking swimming lessons and resembling a drowning spider monkey (in all fairness, she is getting better), I would the Wise Guy around the pool deck.  He would try every 10 minutes or so to break through the ropes keeping people off the deck right [...]
