Happy Birthday Mom

Mom would have been 63 today as it is Jan 5th on the East Coast.

We've been going through Mom's stuff. She was just like her mother, kept everything. She had a bunch of my school projects from elementary school, Valentine's Day cards I got then as well.. all kinds of shit. I am shipping back to my home tons of pictures she had. It will be fun going through them. The one of me from about 1974 in the electric blue pant/vest combo with the matching bow tie is a personal favorite. The polyester shirt with the funky pattern was a great match as well. The picture of my dad with the white tux that had black lapels and his yellow ruffled shirt was a another sartorial masterpiece.

At least I got to watch a wild football game tonight.. USC's defense sucked a Texas sized donkey. Fucking Trojans, pissed off was a change of pace I wasn't quite looking for.

Open house and service at Mom and Paul's house tonight. Not looking forward to it, so many of the people who plan to show are from the neighborhood and barely know Mom since they haven't lived here a long time. Oh well, Mom made friends fast. Everyone liked Mom.
