Completely At Random

The television is on. A commercial is playing. A man, hawking National rental cars, is pulling a piece of luggage across a parking lot filled with cars.

The mother: “That guy reminds me of Joe Buck.”

Me (shaking head): “Mom, that is Joe Buck.

The mother: “Oh, I guess that would be why, huh?”

******************

In something that is SO typical of my life:

I finished the note last night. While I didn't get it mailed yesterday as I had intended, I at least finished it. I thought, "Now I will write it in the notecard that I had all ready, with the envelope already stamped and addressed. I can put it in the mail today."

O.K. Now where the hell is it?!

Vicki I can totally relate. I couldn't wait to get home for today's installation of "As This D*mn House Turns"!

No high drama required. A brief note has been mailed. MonkeyGirl assures me that my word choice was gracious while being non-commital without shooting him down. I'm sure there will be more to come.
