Road Trip (Minus Tom Green)


Today is a "work day" for me. This is what I will be doing.

Our YYs (Youth of Yesterday .. how many times do I have to go over this??) will leave at 9 o'clock for Sikeston, MO (a two hour drive) to eat lunch at Lambert's Cafe where we will have large yeast rolls thrown at us (food fight!!). Afterwards, we will stop by the outlet mall (evidently, this is like "crack" for women over 55) for a little while and then return to Humboldt.

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

YTs (Youth of Today .. okay, I just coined that one) are hard to impress. By the time many of them reach age 14, they have already been to New York, D.C. or, even Europe. What can you plan that they've not done?

Senior adults, on the other hand, will fill up a 42 passenger bus to .. go eat. You don't have to do anything else. If there's cobbler involved, they are in.

There is only one downside. The bus pulls out of the parking lot at 9 AM today. This means people will be waiting at the church by 6:15 this morning.

I like to be early, too. However ..

It's only chicken and dressing .. not the iPhone.
