And I’ll leave you w/ today’s edition of conversations w/ grandpa:
Grandpa: Is that you Daniel? (mumbled from my bedroom where I have temporarily been evicted from)
Me: Yeah…good morning gramps
Grandpa: You know…this is what you have to look forward to.
Me: you mean having nothing to do all day but lie around and not work, and forgetting that you told me the same thing yesturday.
Grandpa: Yup…only 35 more years for you.
Me: I know. You’re lucky to be able to get away with repeating stories. And that whole never working again thing is a pretty good deal too.
30min. later, in the kitchen
Grandpa: Where’s my breakfast? What kind of service is this?
Me: Life is better in the old people home, isn’t it?
Grandpa: You should see the breakfasts we get there. The other morning I had eggs and pancakes. Of course, I couldn’t finish even half of it. (opens a pill jar) You know Daniel, when you get to be my age, you end up taking these pills. You see this one here (points to a microscopic sized pill)
Me: is a water pill. It helps you pee. Can’t I just fast-forward to 85 already!

Do you really want to need help peeing? I’m thinking don’t rush to 85, yo. You might miss a lot. =]
So.. you’re going to St Louis? I’ve been there once. It was pretty groovy. Did the whole ride the little egg to the top of the arch and look out the windows at the city thing. It was cool. Especially since the friend I was with was afraid of heights and was pretty much freaking out the entire time, lol.
Ted Drewe’s. Been there, too. Yummy concrete shakes.
The flood picture is really beautiful. Which.. floods are bad, yo.. but still.. gorgeous pic.
Okay, well, sorry to be random, but noticed you stopped by my site, so just saying hey. Comment sometime if ya want.
