Short Story to Let You Know We're Still Alive

We haven't written anything in some time for the simple fact that not much goes on around here.

I roll out of bed at half past whenever I want. Put on my shoes and go to the gym. I come home and get right to doing absolutely nothing followed by getting my sweet Swell ready to go back to Romania.

We did have a really fun time in Las Vegas with my folks to help me Ma celebrate her birthday. Swell is going to write a little about that later but long story short - food, Hoover Dam, Stomp, gambling WITH winnings, shopping, food, comedy show, more food.

The next few weeks will be potentially exciting and some will probably end up disappointed.

Short Story:

Location Local grocery store down the street from our home

Setting Standing in the check out line. One person finishing up in front of us. We have a few things. Young woman behind us is a store employee obviously about to go on break. After hearing her speak a few words it becomes evident that she is developmentally delayed.

Swell is looking cute as usual. She is wearing basic clothes. Shorts, a T-Shirt and a hat. I'm also wearing a hat and t-shirt and shorts.

Young woman to Swell What's for dinner tonight? Oh that sounds good. You gonna save me some? I looove your hat. It's so cute.

Swell Thank you. I didn't wash my hair today so I put it on.

Young woman to Swell Ha ha. You're having a bad hair day today!

Young woman slowly turns her head toward me saying You must have A LOT of bad hair days.

Me to this day !!? ?!! ???
