Family Matters
Posted on October 24, 2005 - Filed Under Personal |
I’m now into week 9 of staying at Anne and Tony’s.
Two weeks ago, I was working at the houses. Anne will sometimes call me between 5 and 5:30 to see how I’m doing. So when my cell rang at 5:30, I knew who it was.
Clifford: "Hey there Sunshine!"
Anne: "Hey, how are you?"
Clifford: "Working as usual. You should see the paint on the houses."
Anne: "Yeah, I know. Are you almost done?"
Clifford: "Almost. I’ll be home around 7 or 8."
Anne: "HA! You said ‘home’! We gotcha boy!"
Monday morning, Anne was telling me about their weekend trip with their family to Idyllwild. Being located near the top of a mountain, Idyllwild is 5,300 feet above sea level. For those of us that live next to the ocean that’s a large elevation difference. And those differences can have all kinds of weird effects on the body.
Anne: "We couldn’t do anything!"
Clifford (sipping espresso): "The oxygen must be thin up there."
Anne: "You have no idea! Marissa couldn’t move, her boyfriend Cliff was sick, I had all kinds of knee problems and your father had chest pains."
Clifford (spitting up espresso): "Tony’s my father now?"
Yep. Nine weeks.
