Vocabulary 86 - C1

"Honestly, Herbert," Margot sighed, watching him attempt to hang a picture, "you'd think after all these years, you'd learn to use a level."

Herbert, balancing precariously on a wobbly chair, retorted, "Now, Margot, where's your faith? Besides, I hired a contractor once, remember? That fiasco cost us a fortune!"

Margot shuddered. "Don't remind me. He promised us a state-of-the-art kitchen and delivered a pile of rubble. We should have sued him."

"He looked legitimate enough," Herbert mumbled, finally hammering the nail in… crookedly. The picture tilted at a distinct angle.

Later that day, Brian rushed into the kitchen, breathless. "Mom, Laura's being weird again! She's trying to get Mr. Henderson to sign a petition!"

Margot frowned. "What kind of petition?"

"Something about saving the park from… uh… corporate donors? She says they want to build a parking lot!"

Margot pinched the bridge of her nose. "Oh, for goodness sake. Is she at it again? That child has a chronic need to save the world."

Herbert, emerging from the living room with a donut in hand, chimed in, "Well, someone's gotta do it. Maybe if those parking lots get built, I won't have to walk so far to get to the Dog & Duck."

Margot just stared at him, then grabbed her keys. "I'm going to talk to your daughter."
