On this day three years, they gave us something to celebrate in Central Florida…other than being in a place where the weather was much better than in Central Texas (I recall, it was a bit chilly while Orlando was swampy).
According to the gift guides, numero trois is leather, crystal or glass. Hmm. A biker jacket, fancy drinkware or a window? With them moving to Texas, a riding saddle would be more accurate for leather but owning a horse is impractical and expensive. Jose likes many thing I enjoy yet he’s not a geek or nerd, he always gravitated toward coolness which made him wiser than me at Marquette. Anyway, the lack of nerd moniker means the alternate suggestions are out.
We are going to be visiting Nancy and Jose next weekend (Halloween) so I will think of something by then. Maybe take them to a restaurant with leather (rich Corinthian) seats and drink wine from fancy goblets, that could cover it.
Meanwhile, do me a favor, wish them a happy anniversary here or better yet through an e-mail. Facebook will do but it seems rather lazy.
