dropped like an unwanted stone

I remember looking at her in her incubator, staring at those big brown eyes, staring right back at me. I was thinking "so, you're the one who's been bouncing around in my tummy for the past 42 weeks". I remember so many things, like they only happened 5 minutes ago.

She remembers not. On her way to adulthood fast and furious. Looking forward, never back. Me, I only look back because there she is with me. The tomorrows, she is not.

What then is my purpose?

In All Fairness to American Tourists...

Well as anyone who knows me already knows, I am disgusted by the ignorance of people visiting our country. I bitch and complain and rant and rave about them. Here is a cheerful change on the flip side of that coin. I was serving a Canadian customer who was unhappy with our store's selection of Coke only products. He asked if our company was American. I said, well yes they are. That's it then! He declared. You are run by an American company, therefore you have to sell Coke products only. REALLLLLLLY! because I thought Pepsi was just as American as Coke. (he wanted Pepsi)

It is so nice to be ejumacated by smart people.
