Two Three Random Sunday Texarkanas
1. After church today, a woman in her mid-50s scaled the pews and salmon-dived through the crowds to get over to Buckaroo. She wanted to introduce herself and say she'd never seen either of us at church* before. And by the way, she had a daughter about Buckaroo's age who was a senior in high school who (as she frantically looks around) was "around there somewhere". When she found out Buckaroo was 22, she then started telling us about her lovely 21 year old daughter who would be home at Christmas and perhaps they'd be sure to sit near us during Sunday service.
2. While this was going on, Buckaroo wasn't paying any attention to this conversation because a woman I barely knew had walked up to us, introduced herself to my son and started telling him HE "needed" to read my book. At this point, Buck was taking baby-steps towards the door, looking for a break in the crowds so he could bolt. Unfortunately, Corona Gail, Corona Krissy, Corona Ruth and Corona Suzy cornered him (and me) to say hello.
3. Buckaroo came to church with me today.
*I go almost every week and sit in the same place.
