OH, dash it all! I've been re- hired!
Jaime was quietly minding his own business, and the license process turned up a felony on him. Lord knows what it could have been. Last I had seen him he was training horses at Thistledown. I have heard that some bad tests are third degree felonies...maybe he got a bad test. Just by the way, In the racing world the trainer is responsible for a bad test, no matter how it happened. An unscrupulous vet could give something that might not pass or too much of something and the trainer gets the rap.
It was funny how I heard though. Hardhead Called last night, but that wasn't the killer. The killer was that Charles came home and told me and I said "I know" and he proceeded to tell me what a dressing down he gave Hardhead for firing me to begin with. Bear in mind nobody cares, not me, not him, not Jaime, not Charles...but anyway, Charles said:
-so you use her all winter when its freezing cold, then drop her when your warm weather boy shows up!
-well, Jaime does everything, and....
-no he doesn't! he isn't doing ANYTHING right now. So now you want her back? Well, she's gonna hate that. She was glad you fired her., and she'll be glad you fire her again when you get your handyman back! She told me not to say anything- cuz you're a grouch- but I am anyway.
I guess you had to be there, but when Chas told me I got to laughing so much I couldn't; get back to sleep.
Now I have to get on Hateya again.....
