The package was still sitting on my desk here this morning. Accusatory. Gloating. Condemning. So I’m going to confess it.

I do it to my parents virtually everytime. They drive in from several hundreds miles from their winter roost on their way to their summer roost. We spend a couple of days telling stories and laughing and eating. And then, right as they get ready to jump in the car, I bring it out.

So I was all set to compose a post this morning, birds singing, hot coffee in hand. Well, hot coffee in a mug, not in my hand. With the mug on the desk next to my computer. You understand. But before I could compose, I had to go play a little round of Octamom Parking Lot.
