Well Tux has been in big trouble again! We all know he is not a little delicate creature so I don't know how he did this but he managed to pick up my VISA card off my wooden computer desk and destroy it. There are big teeth holes in the card plus it looks like a 3-dimensional topographical map of a mountain range. Most of the numbers are unreadable. Slide it through a machine....never happen!
After teaching middle school for 26 years and hearing all the excuses imaginable including, "My dog ate my homework," I had to call the VISA people and admit my dog destroyed my credit card. How embarrassing! Fortunately the VISA rep was very nice about it and told me they get lots of calls like this. Whatever, it's still embarrassing. In a day or two I should have my new card. In the meantime, I have suspended Tux's allowance for the month. I don't think he had time to order anything from the internet but I would not be surprised to open the front door in the morning and see a stack of parcels from pet stores piled on my porch. Ah, the joys of living with a spoiled Newf!
