Totally weird. I walked into my bosses office and a young woman was sitting there. She looked oddly familiar. We were introduced and her name did nothing to jar my memory of where I knew her from. I kept thinking and thinking about it and later asked my boss who she was. She said who she was her significant other’s daughter and it still didn’t clarify if or how I knew her. Then she mentioned something about the woman saying she recognized me from Wegman’s! (Auto-incorrect wants to change Wegman’s to Legman’s – sigh) Turns out she is a checker there and we have spoken a few times. Out of context, I just didn’t recognize her. Small, weird world. Now, if only something like that would happen with a woman with whom I was romantically interested, that would be nice. Sadly, that doesn’t happen, or hasn’t happened yet.
I am up at 6 this morning (yesterday) for some reason. Oh, right, the phone was ringing. Mom couldn’t or wouldn’t pick up the receiver. So I leapt out of bed to try to help, but too late. It was Karl calling. And mom was wide awake, so it is a better time, generally, to call than the afternoon when I am not around and mom is likely to be caught napping. I texted him to try again and he did. Huzzuh! I still smile (ruefully) when I think about the time recently when the phone was ringing and I told mom to pick up the phone – and she did – the whole device. Tee hee.
What was the second thing I did after I woke up? (First being get mom and Karl together on the phone) I did Smith stuff. I am a sick puppy. I tried logging on to computers at work and mostly failed. Then I built a ticket announcement email for The Chris Robinson Brotherhood that is supposed to go out today at noon.
Maybe I oughtn’t to say this since Karma has a way of mucking things up, but I haven’t been sick in a long while. Well, not to speak of. And I don’t get owies very frequently, but I got one yesterday. Trying to get out and go to the Smith, I tried to step over the gate at the head of the stairs and just didn’t lift my leg far enough. Owie.

That’s cute how your Mom picked up the whole phone. My Mother in law does strange things like that as well.
