Sitting with my best friend and a lady friend...
She hints (by drinking nothing but water then professing her love for Jager) that she needs another drink...
I buy a round, my friend is ...

Senior Companion... |
So, I'm volunteering my time at a local assisted living location to spend time with elderly residents who have little or no family or friends or at least not ones who visit too often. I'll just ...

regardless of desires to change them.

blow away the stars with paper fans
and

to pigeonhole

POW! |
It was casual conversation,

Rain checks don't have to be saved for a rainy day... |
