Leaping

To the lady painting her nails in the coffee shop: please stop that.

Today is my brother-in-law's 14th (actual) birthday. Happy Birthday, Keith!
It is a good thing my sisters and I weren't born on Feb. 29...Dad would have had way too much fun tormenting us. "No, you don't get a birthday this year" every day until surprise, here's your cake. Dad likes to play cruel jokes.

The Colt did his first reading today. He got some good laughs. Nice job Frank. Emily and Dawson also read. But they're seasoned pros.

I have an hour to kill before Keith's birthday gala and I came to the coffee shop. Now I'm wishing I had gone home to check the mail. I think something will be waiting for me. I'm not sure if I think it will be good news or bad. Maybe it will be all three and I won't have to wait anymore.
