Day: April 19, 2014

* I went to a department store to buy my wife’s requested birthday present, a jogging suit and sneakers. I selected the footwear easily, but I couldn’t find a jogging suit I liked. So I picked out a nice silk nighty instead. When I handed the two purchases to the sales clerk, she studied both gifts and asked, “is it the thrill of the chase?”

# The idea that no one is perfect is viewed most commonly held by people with no grandchildren.

# A mother was picking up her child from day care and waited a few minutes with some other mothers. One proud mother proclaimed her son was able to sit by himself at four months, that he crawled at six months and walked before he was a year old. She said now at 16 months he was talking in full sentences. The mother turned to another friend who was listening and asked if her 16 month old son was talking yet. The mother replied, “Andy doesn’t say much, he mainly texts us what he wants.”
