Week Past 03/10-03/16/08 (Running Shoes & Birthdays)
Wed 03/12 I lost my running shoes at the gym. I usually leave it under a bench when I go take a shower. I'm thinking it was not stolen but somebody took it by mistake...I hope. Now who would steal a used running shoes including the socks? Would you? (gross as W said). Fri 03/14 went back to the gym and asked for their lost and found. "Anybody turned in a running shoes?' I asked."What color?' she asked. Showed my other running shoe to the attendant. "It's a Reebok with almost the same color" I said. Wait, wait while she rummaged inside. I thought that's what I heard she was doing behind the door. Afterwards she showed me two pairs. One had seen better days. I think the owner must have left that on purpose to be thrown away. The other was mine:). "You're in luck" she said. "Seen any black socks with it?" I asked smiling pushing my luck and thanked her.
I know two people celebrating their birthday this week: Fri 03/14 is my fraternal bruder Boots who now reside in Texas with his daughter. He worked on her papers for years so she can join him in the land of milk and honey (you really have to work to the bones to get that milk and honey). He likes to end his e-mails with "Remember the Ilocano in Alamo." He turns 53. Sat 03/16 is my biological brother Jo in New Jersey. We were hoping that he and his family will relocate in MN. That will have to wait. With the housing problems I guess it's not a good time.
Happy Birthday and Enjoy your Day. May God Bless.
