But my purse always calls one person, Paige. I also have a blackberry and I blame the location of the P key. Paige is one of Ben's ex-girlfriends whom I love, but I know she must think it is crazy that her ex-boyfriend's new wife calls her all of the time. At first I would apologize but now I am just embarrassed. Purse dialing is quite a problem for me. But my purse always calls one person, Paige.

I remember as a child as young as four or five drinking coffee for breakfast. If you open my family photo album, you will indeed see photographical evidence. The Grandkids sitting around my Grandparents breakfast table...each with a cup-o-joe. Suffices to say, it was more milk than coffee. I think at first it was just the whole wanting to be a grown up...then turned into an addiction. I've loved it as long as I can remember. And to tell of a little more of my madness...I drink coffee black only in the morning and with cream (no sugar) at night. I always enjoy your blog. Love ya K!

Oh what fun days those were!! The fun times we had playing in the 'library'. Now at the age of 33, I have recently been going through some stuff, throwing away, packing, and tackling the favorite chore of everyone....moving. I have come across some old books in my process, that as i would open the cover up, out would fall 'book cards', and yes, they would have dates written on them. We could spend hours playing and letting our imaginations run wild. Oh how upset we would get when it was time to go home. We made it very clear on many occasions just how upset we were at that point in time. And don't dare tell us we couldn't come over on Sunday night after church. We would express our disapproval very clearly so that there were no questions about it!! Ahhhh!!!!! The good old days!!! Life was simple then! What happened?

[and other random thoughts]… by sue http://cleverkris.com/2009/06/12/what-would-constitute-a-magic-umbrella-and-other-random-thoughts/comment-page-1/#comment-538 sue Wed, 16 Jun 2010 12:51:02 +0000 http://cleverkris.wordpress.com/?p=523#comment-538 Hey Kris ! Hope you are getting in a little rest now that school is over. Are you moving to New York this summer ? If so, we will miss you ! I am sending a link to a supurb Thai restaurant if you ever find yourself in the 5 points area of Birmingham. http://www.surinwest.com/ We would drive over there on a weekend and spend the night just so we could eat here. :-) They serve the best Pad Thai I have ever tasted anywhere. Oh, and if you are ever in Memphis there are some great Viet Namese restaurants up there. (That's really the only reason to go to Memphis, by the way.) I wish we could have a population of about 25% Asian so we could get some really good food here besides catfish. :-) Hey Kris !
