Random funnies

These are little stories that I didn't want to forget from recent weeks...

-While we were on the plane to NYC, Jackson and I had a discussion about what the future would look like. I said that I didn't think things would change too much as it was already 2013 and the people of the Jetsons era thought we'd all be flying around by now. He stared at me. I realized we were indeed flying. Hilarious.

-I managed to get a splinter in my finger while visiting the concrete jungle that is NYC. We asked a clothing store for a safety pin and came up short so we "borrowed" one from a drug store. Jackson then performed emergency surgery on my finger on The Avenue of the Americas with thousands of people passing by. I lost quite a bit of blood ("almost enough to test glucose levels with" according to Jackson), but the operation was a successful one.

-We met a friend of a friend at a bar this weekend. She was from England. She told us that Philadelphia reminded her of Paris. We all looked at her with bewilderment as their commonalities seemingly end with their names beginning with the letter "P."

-In the Indianapolis airport Jackson saw an IU recruit who is transferring to play basketball for Marion High School next year as a senior. He called out his name, spoke with him and his coach and then followed the kid, James Blackmon Jr., on Twitter. He proceeded to tweet about their bumping into one another and was ELATED when this seventeen year old kid future IU star re-tweeted him. Sigh.
