Part man, part monkey

In an effort to show a friend I live with the meanest sister in the world, I told a friend that my sister has taken to calling me Boots. This refers to Dora the Explorer’s monkey sidekick, who has similarly awesome taste in footwear.

It didn’t work.

“That’s adorable,” my friend replied. That’s an actual quote because we were texting.

Of course I didn’t want it to work. She’s great.

Just yesterday I found out my insurer denied my shower chair. I need a new one because I slip forward in my current one without the seatbelt, which I always wear.

I came back from a postwork walk to find her manually raising the front of the seat.

I guess I’ll be Boots.210
