So I got a call Sat night from my good friend Tim Bank. He was in town for work and had brought along his 2 year old son Peter to visit with his folks while he was at the Convention Center in SF.(He lives in Wisconsin so I never see him!). He invited me over for brunch and to chat and hang out.
So I drive over to Oakland, up near my/our old high school as his folks live basicly across the street. And a little unsure if I will remember the house as it had been like 15 years since I had been there. And I recall it as I saw it, it looked the same. And then recalled the going to the back door verses the actually front door. It was really crazy weird. I mena I used to go here practically every day in high school. We had meeting here, we would all come here before going out to movies and such, and yeah he and I dated for a bit. But still it was like visiting home in a way. So His dad opens the door and then his mom is in the TV room with Little Peter who is trying to get "Oma" to go outside to look for turkeys! It was just plain odd in all the nostagic good ways. And then Peter saw me and came up and took my hand, saying "Outside. Turkeys!" (He is two after all). So we wander out side and then have to go see the horses as that is also where Peter saw the turkeys with "Pape Pete". It was so cute and he kept trying to get me to go places. Then Tim came out side to hang with us.
More when I get back form the doctors...
