the $4 war...

So...last month me and my buddies went to Moab to frolic and play. Cameron drove his Amigo, so I owed him gas money. After much pestering on my part, he finally caved and told me the amount (roughly $41). I decided to write it for a few dollars over, since he drove quite a bit over the summer but would never accept money for it. Just $4. So when I gave him the check, he noticed immediately and reached for his wallet to give me $4 in cash, at which point I ran out to my car and locked him out. He followed, but before I could pull out he put the money under my windshield wipers and took off. I chased him for not very long (he's really fast!) and decided, since he thought the race was still on, that I would just put his money in his backpack. Before I left, I warned my roommates NOT to take any money from him, that it was dirty money. So I went home and relaxed. A few days later I came home from work to find the money and a note on my pillow. I realize it's only $4, but it's the principle of the thing...I gave him the money and he needs to keep it! So I found a dumb little piggy bank and switched the bills for change: $2 in nickels and $2 in pennies. Then I left it in a bag with a snooty note and giggled to myself. That was nearly 2 weeks ago. Cameron is a patient man, I suppose. He lulled me into this false sense of security that I had won the war. DANG IT! Well last night as I was pulling back the covers on my bed, I saw that $4 change spread all over my bed under my sheets. I was shocked, to say the least. I immediately blamed Brooke for "selling me down the river" to help Cameron's cause and I wrote her a note saying as much. (She was sleeping when I found my little treasure trove). So...this morning when I got up, Brooke was laughing and told me that Cameron did his own dirty work this time; he dropped by last night while I was visiting teaching to get a movie from Brooke. I suppose he noticed I was gone and had a little party in my room. (He even left the piggy bank!) Geez! This is a little bit annoying, I must say. However, the war is so not over! Not until he gives up! I have a few ideas...but if you have any ideas, please feel free to send them my way.

Did you ever wonder what $4 in change looks like?

How about $4 in change scattered inside your bed?


Here's a closer look...


And here's the culprit, Cameron.
He looks like such a nice man, doesn't he?
But in reality, he's evil...
