for the past few days we’ve had a tray of marbles sitting at the top of the stairs.

its not that i haven’t noticed them…

its not that i haven’t seen lots of black and white tv skits with comedians losing their footing on marbles…

its not that my safety conscious partner hasn’t seen the marbles…

its not that i’ve lost my marbles, i know exactly where they are, in a tray at the top of my stairs…
