Two things tonight:
I took a top-down moonlit drive just now. I wore a light sweater and turned the heat on lightly warm, blowing onto my feet. I have fantasies that this is what it feels like up north as the cold comes in, but with a lot more color and bite. We feel this so rarely. We have the occasional ice storm, but usually in late January, early February. We often spend New Year's wearing shorts.
So tonight is a harbinger of the best top-down driving this part of the world has to offer: it is coming, it is here (for a few days anyway).
Also:
A prior post has caused discussion and surfing, accusations and skin diagramming. The Husband reads the Blog. The other night he wanted to know: What Picture? Referring to my breast cancer post. I told him that was the whole point. I couldn't find it!
This morning, the Husband exclaimed from his computer chair, "You did post your picture!"
Did not. Couldn't find it.
"This is YOU!"
So I go in there and my HEAVENS this man has lived with me for fourteen some-odd years. He doesn't know? I pointed.
See these freckles? That's not me.
He pointed. THAT one is yours!
I point. But look - not the other two. I point at the screen and at my bare arm.
I point other bare things at him. And LOOK. I'm much bigger than her. SHEEESH!
He does not relent.
This evening, a friend of mine called. Also a friend of the Husband, but they were never engaged so he's more my friend than the Husband's. While the guys were talking it occurred to me that this friend might have one of the red-bra pictures. Our relationship was of that time period.
So I ask the husband to ask the friend: Does he have one of the red bra pictures?
Husband looks at me. Husband asks friend.
Husband laughs and reports: He says no, but that he has some of the green teddy pictures.
I retort: We didn't have a camera with us that time.
