Greetings from League City, TX.
I am here in the aftermath of performing a mission. You see, there was a sad little boy in Lake Jackson, TX who needed to be perked up. As a native Houstonian, I decided to give it a try. Sooo, Saturday morning, I made a phone call while on the Southwest Airlines web site. Monday, I boarded a Love Jet from San Diego to Phoenix and another one from Phoenix to Houston.
The boy in question had no way to get to Houston, so it was Zipcar to the rescue. Thanks to them, I wound up in a Volvo XC 60.
I swore it was the most Houstonian thing I have ever done. This is because growing up in Houston, the it imported car in Houston was the Volvo. It was a great drive to Lake Jackson to pick the boy up. I showed him around Houston and saw his face light up in ways I never imagined. This was especially true when I was interrupted to do some work and over the phone mentioned that I was out on a date. I never saw someone break out in a smile that someone mentioned him positively.
Now, I am making one of my aunts happy by hanging out at her place until after Xmas, when I bus it back to SD and home for new years (and a blood draw.)
If I don't post between now and Monday, Merry Xmas.
