A couple of interesting phone calls

Jake's b-day was Thursday. He's in CA right now for some Army training. So first thing Thursday morning I sent him a "Happy Birthday" text message. He called me after his classes were done & we chatted for a while. Poor guy was depressed b/c he wasn't home for his b-day. To be honest, that suprised me. I wouldn't think something like that would bring him down. I almost told him what his gift is (to cheer him up) but decided I really want to see his face when he opens it. I'm not going to say right now what it is b/c Megan will benefit from it too & I know she sometimes reads my blog. But I'm sure they will love it. (Unless they have something like it already *frown*).


I got a really weird phone call Thursday night. The phone rings & caller ID shows a 732 (Batavia) number but I don't recognize it. When I answered it a very nice male voice (!) asks to speak to Juli. He says his name is Kevin & somehow he had gotten a hold of my contact card but he didn't know where. He'd been wracking his brain all week trying to figure out where he'd picked up my card. (I still can't figure out who this is, but I *do* like the sound of his voice....) He went on to say he does Crystal Therapy, at which point I started to laugh. I said, "Kevin, you goofball. I'm the lady who gave you a feather Saturday night." We had a very nice conversation during which he apologized profusely & told me why he was so scatter brained. Now I don't feel so bad about things I've been forgetting!!!
Speaking of forgetting things...‹sigh› I forgot the birthday of a man who, in my opinion, was the greatest performer ever. Period. I'm speaking, of course, about the late, and very great, Freddie Mercury. Hard to believe he would have been 61 years old this year (on Sept. 5th). Love ya & miss ya, Freddie....

Just wanted to mention a couple of other nice things that happened this week. I had dinner with my brother Thursday night. Just the two of us. It was a great little visit. And have made a new online friend, one which I hope will become a face-to-face friend. Hey Luanne - thanks for IM'ing me. ‹hugs›

Gotta go...going over to Kevin's for a visit. Too bad he's gay. ‹sigh›

Later Taters.
