IT AMAZES ME, SOMETIMES, WHEN...
"THE" PERFECT *GIFT* for Someone just *suddenly* APPEARS in the Oddest of Places, at the Most UNexpected Times, in the Form of "SOMETHING" that wouldn't *normally* have come to mind!
So. We only went to TWO YARD-SALES Today. - The FIRST, just a Couple of Streets over... There were Several ITEMS of "Interest", however, a tad OVER-Priced for My *Continued*-INTEREST. -- At least *until*, I came across a Certain BOOK...
huh. -- I had no Idea that IT even "EXISTED"! Although, at $2., IT was a *bit* more than I would probably USUALLY "PAY"..? - *BUT*, there was NO Way that I could PASS on IT! To do so, would have likely TORN a HOLE into the "SPACE-TIME-CONTINUUM" or Whatever-ELSE *just* as "COSMIC"!
FATHER has a BIRTHDAY coming up in a Few Weeks...
I already have a GIFT "in mind", however, actually FINDING Said OBJECT could prove to be somewhat *Difficult*..? -- NO One really SELLS "THEM" any more..?!! -- Having a "BACK-UP" GIFT would be Good...
**THIS** BOOK, pretty much fulfilled THAT *Need*! -- yeah, yeah... I know! "WHAT" BOOK?!!
right. IT's on the "HISTORY" of *WHERE* He WORKED for over 30-Years. With Lots of Pics of FORMER-COLLEAGUES and FRIENDS... His "NAME" is even IN IT! -- Reason enough to Buy IT! -- And to think, IT was just a Few Blocks away for well over a Decade!!
Anyhoo, We decided to pop on over Back HOME again to Drop IT off to Him, before getting on with Our LONG Day of GROCERY-GETTING... And, other than the 25-Cent - rather COOL-Looking - ARTSY-ALPHABET-KIDS'-BOOK, the REST of the Day just WASN'T all *that* "Exciting"!
I'm "Supposing", that the YO-YO-COOL-WINDY-"..yeah. right. *GLOBAL-WARMING* - THAT's Happening!"-WEATHER contributed *Greatly*!
Meanwhile, FATHER spent MOST of His Day Enthralled by His "GIFT"!! -- Until, the HOCKEY GAME came ON anyway...
