(Actual fact, I think it’s Sister’s birthday – I’d better stop off in Juarez and get her a gift.)
As if.
I found a tiara at Wal-Mart for 88 cents. Got that in the mail to her the other day. I called, just to make sure, left her this message, “I just sent your birthday present, and if it’s the wrong address, let me know before I mail it, and I’ll put down the right address. Thanks!”
Of course, I didn’t read her address to her, and I turned the phone off immediately thereafter. Always trying make everyone’s day a little more surreal.
On the way from breakfast, I noticed that there’s a new Starbucks on Mesa. Wow, wasn’t there last time. It’s the insidious growth everywhere.
Funniest comment from work? After a busy “run” in the afternoon, I took a break, and stepped outside to get some coffee. I stepped back in, and a nice-looking young man, well-groomed, acceptable tats, “Hey, my mom said to tell you, ‘Hi dad.'”
That was amusing, good for a laugh.
Sudden fear? Nope, “What your birthday?”
The year did add up except, perhaps, in a tribal society.
Quad-Aire:
Seems like the boys had a bit of trouble Sunday afternoon while Grace and I were working. Seems like there was a an upset with the four-runners. Quads. The fun-mobiles. Now they’re called “Quad-Errs.”
