Sounds like the lyrics to a country song...

    Here's what's going on in our pitiful world right now: Little Drummer Boy's truck needs a major (meaning expensive) repair on it ASAP; our lawn mower suddenly quit working; our air conditioner also quit working. Currently, it's 8:40 p.m. and it's 82 degrees and humid outside. All we have is a little window AC which isn't cutting it (being that it is currently 83 degrees INSIDE our house.) Our septic system needs emptied. We all need to get to the dentist but haven't even made an appointment yet. Two people at my workplace are leaving and I'm working 3 times harder because of it. OK, sorry for the pity party. How are you all doing?

    Jes, and I thought my world has turned to crap... My business, which has always done well, is about to go under and I don't know why... I'll bring my ac and come live with you.

    Thanks for putting it in lyric form (with musical notations, no less). I couldn't have done it better myself. I can just hear the steel guitar whining in the background . . .

    I get where you are coming from - my business is failing, I'm broke, my gun-hoarding assault-on-a-cop-with-a-deadly-weapon drug-using husband is finally going to trial, and it's now over 100 degrees and will be every day until late September. Can I come live with you too? I'll bring some fans.
