A small town problem....

It took less than twenty four hours to get the scoop on the naked lady. If that happened in San Francisco no one would know her name. If it happened in San Francisco no one would bother to look. It didn't happen in San Francisco but Benicia, California with an estimated population of 28,000.

This morning Wanda called and told me the naked lady was a neighbor of someone she knew. I wonder what she wears around the house? Oh yes, and Wanda mentioned something about the lady "not taking her meds." I've never heard that potential side effect, "may cause stupid naked behaviours."

L8ER.....this is my text speak for later. Using L8TR saves one whole character. If I checked I'm sure I could find a text dictionary. But, I really don't care.

I went into Safeway to pick up some prescriptions this morning. I was wearing sunglasses, bi-focal sunglasses, and couldn't see very well. I was talking with one of the workers about the reaction I had after my flu shot. He asked me my age. "I'll be 63 next month" I said. Then waited to hear; really, you don't look it. And I waited, and waited, and waited. I think it's about time I stopped waiting.

Last night I had a small war with the green onions I had on my dinner salad. I was fine until I went to bed. I wouldn't think two small sliced green onions would put up such a fuss, but they did. Finally at three in the morning I took something but couldn't get back to sleep. I sent a text to Rebecca.

I wrote a nice long message asking how she was, asking how her husband was and telling her the short version of my news of the day. I signed off C U L8TR and also added, U must be busy, which is Jewish Father speak for Y haven't U called me?.......Guilt, works every time.

Jammed lavatory door sparks anxiety on airline flight. The Internet is as bad as the news. TV has the "teaser" to get us to stay tuned. After all, you wouldn't want to miss hearing about the next disaster. I was curious about the toilet story so clicked the link.

My first thought was a bathroom door on an airplane was locked and lots of people were getting nervous about it. The story was actually about a pilot who got stuck in a toilet due to a faulty door lock. Through a serious of errors the flight staff thought a hijacking was taking place. The pilot eventually extricated himself and the plane continued on as scheduled.

As for me, I'd rather be stuck inside than outside a toilet, especially now that I'll be 63 next month.
