The Sick Pack
Jen came for a visit the other night. Apparently she had picked up a cold when she went to Juneau last week. Nothing like being crammed into a confined space with hundreds of other folks to test the old immune system. I hadn't seen much of her recently so I kind of wanted to talk to her and show her what I was doing with the new book and get some input. I knew that she was sick, so before she arrived I grabbed out a large bottle of Cran-raspberry juice for her to take home. I guess it's full of vitamin C or some such thing. Then I got to thinking, maybe I should get a mask for her to wear so I don't catch her cold. She thought that was funny, but she didn't wear it, maybe because it was a dust mask like you'd use when sanding sheet rock and not one like doctors and nurses wear. I guess if a doctor wanted to do a little construction around his house he'd have a ready store of surgical supplies on hand and wouldn't...
Guess you just can't have enough t-shirts.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I was CRACKING up! I also thought that it said, "Who mentioned you", I couldn't understand why they would do that to BB/BS kids! :) Also, I think you should go ahead and sport the LKanes shirt while trying to sell your t-shirts, may sell more that way...at least it will be eye catching! Love ya!
ReplyDeleteHI Camille- I forgot to mention the Bubba Gump Shrimp T that I had and I think one or two others. I finally had to get rid of a blue one that said Pepsi on it, but I've still got a red Coke one. I think Justin passed those on to me. I should go through my hats some time too- I think I probably have fifteen or so of those, though most of them say Hoonah Cold Storage. Obviously I have a hard time parting with things.
ReplyDeleteHi Autumn- Yeah, they may want to reconfigure the saying on that BB/BS shirt. The kids come for a little support and mentoring and leave feeling like second class citizens- probably not the intent of the program. I'm afraid at this juncture of my life I couldn't even get my fat head into the L. Kanes shirt. Best to leave it alone and see if it ever becomes worth anything- and hope that it's not set upon by a band of ravenous moths.
