Lost in Translation

via Daily Prompt: Taper

Just how many different ways can he screw things up? Frustration has become my normal state of being. Why or better yet what can I do to deal with this! Is it a problem with hearing? Is he doing it on purpose just to see my reaction? Maybe I need to write it out? The diner is tonight. His only job was the invitations and dressing the table. I asked that he get a taper for everyone. So what did he do……….he showed up with colored paper. Each person at the party was to use the taper to light their candle!

There I am screaming again. No, it is deafening silence instead. Lost in translation: Taper vs Paper. Okay, I needed a picture of a taper!
