Saturday 9: I Forgot to Remember to Forget Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it
here. 1) Elvis sings that he thinks about this girl all the time. What person or topic is on your mind this Saturday? Well with my husband's hospitalization this
week and his slow recovery, he is on everybody's minds this week. Of all the people I've met in my life I would
think of about four or five who were influential. The first would have
been my typing teacher and lifelong friend, Sister Anne (sadly, now dead) Judy Garland at the Opera House in San
Francisco. This was the concert before the tour she made after
her "Carnegie Hall" album (I saw that concert too) Only been pierced once. When I was in
(Catholic) high school, only "bad" girl had pierced ears. I waited
until 1967, after I'd had my second child. I went to a jewelry
store in San Francisco, was lead to the back of the store and up dark stairs
to an attic type room (at lest that was my memory of it). I felt like
I had gone in for an abortion. When my ears developed an infection and
swelled up, I was too embarrassed to go through it al again, so I just kept
swabbing them with alcohol and eventually it subsided and I've had no
trouble since. My mother worked for Bank of America
throughout her career, so my first bank was at B of A. Never thought
of any other bank. It was a used one-speed that we found an ad
for in the paper. I loved it, but was a bit jealous when my sister, a
couple of years later, was given a brand new 3-speed. Probably Walt. But that was a very.
long. time. ago. I can't remember the incident, but it was
probably either champagne or a champagne cocktail. I didn't start
heavy duty drinking until I was in college. Hating hangovers was one
of the reasons I gave up drinking many years ago. I'm not sure. The first one I
remember was my cousin's in the late 1950s. I was her maid of
honor. |

I'd love it if you'd leave a comment!
