Random Conversation at Church
I meant to post this Sunday but didn’t.
C. a very active 8 year old boy with brown hair and freckles said: “What did you get my Mom for her birthday?”
Me: “When is her birthday?”
C.: ::: In a matter of fact tone ::: “Today.”
Me: ::: slapping my forehead ::: “OH NO! I did not know that! What am I going to do C.? I am in so much trouble!”
C.: ::: trying to be helpful, crinkles his brow in thought.::: “Hmmmmm…” ::: face straightens out, eyebrows up, he looks at me with all seriousness, “Just give her a five dollar bill.”
Me: “What a great idea…whew … that was a close one.”
C.: ::: runs off to go play with the other kids ::::
Me: ::: fishing five bucks out of my wallet ::: Mom gets a kick out of the story when I hand her the five.
Is it me or is money/gift cards the perfect gift for or from bachelors/single men? One example, one single guy gave me a bulldog … made out of concrete…for my apartment in Texas … it wasn’t painted or anything… one lone white porous HEAVY concrete bulldog. I named it Hubert or something. He guarded my balcony. For some reason Hubert didn’t make it to Florida with me.
Just sayin’.
