The following strange things happened on Wednesday:
- While listening to the blues station on our digital cable, I heard a blues song about a woman whose husband/babydaddy left her for a man. I’ve heard of situations like that, but not in a blues song. Sign of the times, I guess.
- We visited some friends from church who have been living in a hotel for 100 DAYS and counting due to a bad water leak in their house. As if that weren’t enough, the woman was 6-7 months pregnant with TWINS and had a 13-year-old daughter. The twins weighed 7.5lbs EACH. The house repair is taking forever and won’t be done for several more weeks. I’ve never met anyone who lived in a hotel for months at a time, much less with a teenaged daughter and two newborns.
- While visiting them, I held one of the baby boys. Suddenly I felt a warm, wet spot on my shirt and looked down. Apparently diapers are not foolproof.
- That night, Jenny and I got kicked out of the pool by our courtesy officer. And no, not for skinnydipping. Apparently some of the pool lights aren’t working, and the city said we had to close the pool after dark.
We’ll see what Thursday brings, other than a much-needed night off from work.
