Go Mom!
Cheers to Mom who got a voicemail from Aunt Pat this morning as follows:
"Louie heard there was a big storm in Colorado and we were worried about you..." This would be the fifth call this week from Aunt Pat along similar lines.
Let us recall for the moment that this is the Aunt Pat of "why isn't Alex moving to Denver with you" fame. She also happens to be the one that started the rumor around Indiana family and friends that I already had a new boyfriend here with whom I was going to live.
So Mom calls Pat back this morning and trying not to laugh at her she says: "Pat - it was a massive storm and we were blown away in the wind. We're in Kansas now!" Pause for response. "Yes Pat, the hail balls were the size of snowballs - I was hit and have a concussion." Pause for response; at which point I actually heard my mother say, "No, Pat! Of course I'm not serious!! How could we possibly be hurt in a storm? I've talked to you five times already this week!!!"
::sigh::
Still fighting my way thru boxes - and searching for a new job. A good family friend, Mr. Bill, is in town now so he came over for dinner the other night. He's the Lord Mayor in the Colorado Renaissance Festival, which is apparently beginning any time now. Any takers? I told him I'd come around and check out the Faire. :)
Otherwise, nothing new here. Hope you're all having a lovely weekend!
