Financial, family, friends. Also, a misleading mail call.

Have been put in charge of random billage for the month, thanks to happy-funtime with things.

Got a holiday card from rainstorm13. Was boggled at first, because the handwriting on the card, well...

Mailbox. Lunatic unlocks, begins sorting through stuff. "votania, votania, resident, votania and it's junk mail, LF's school, me from the research place: check, yay, me from Mama: big and square -- must be a holiday card, resident, resident, magazine, ...wait, magazine? And it's not computer shit? Who got the magazine?" *looks at address* "Oh, it's for next door." Goes, drops magazine off at office, goes home, dumps mail on flat surface.

Some hours later, sorts through mail. "Mass mailing for me, card from Mama -- wonder if there's any money in it, research check." Sits down with mail. Checks out mass mailing. Sale at store, yay. Opens envelope from Mama. "American Greetings? What is she, on crack? Nice card, though. Pretty. Guess she's getting old. Awww, sweet message. And she's calling it the Temple now! ...all well and happy. Yep, we sure are! Much love, Byron ...the FUCK??!" *checks envelope* "Oh my gods. They have the same handwriting. Byron and my mother have the same handwriting."

So that was entertaining.

I'll need to ask votania if her workplace can be made to cough up a schedule for her for the upcoming few weeks. This will make the rest of us that much happier.

I'll need to purchase the raw materials for that gift to my father. I'm thinking if I do that, then I should also make a bookmark for Mama with a pressed flower.

I'm going to see when the E is coming in, and arrange to spend time with, when and where and how. I must schedule for the inevitable showing of assorted colors with her family.

I don't know if votania's going to be around to keep an eye on LF for the movie on the 17th, assuming Darkside can get that day off. *grumps to self*

We'll have to see what happens.

I was once ... amused to discover that my father and I have the same hand-writing. The significant difference being that he closes the top of his 4's, and I don't.

There was one point at which my mother and I had the same handwriting. It was at some point in my teens. I continued evolving my style after that, so it didn't stay the same for more than a year.
