On
the other hand
On the other hand, sometimes the universe has a way of
getting even. I had always seen Marty as creepy old man taking advantage of a younger
woman. A year after he finished
treatment, his twenty-something girlfriend cleaned him out. While he
was on an extended business trip, she had an estate sale. She sold everything in their new home for
pennies on the dollar. When there was
nothing left, she invited friends in to steal the copper pipes. They tore out the wiring as well. Just for spite they smashed the sinks and the
toilets.
His ex-wife put a picture of the ransacked house on Facebook
with the caption “TRUE
Colonial for sale. No indoor plumbing, no electricity. LOL.”
Today I will remember the universe has a way of getting even.
