Larry.

I just met a great guy named Larry who runs a store called Clothes Encounters in Farmington, a suburb of Detroit. 

I’ve met lots of friendly people here, but Larry is just that bit nicer, funnier, and sweeter than most. We chatted, talked about politics and the state of the world, we joked and laughed, and then I walked out of the store feeling great. I think Larry is the sort of guy who has a gift for making the day better for everyone he meets. 

If you’re ever in Detroit, pop down to Clothes Encounters in Farmington and tell Larry I sent you. Maybe we can make his day great, too. 

Thanks, Blake. We needed a laugh.

This morning my bestie got a text that had obviously been sent to the wrong number. It read, “Oi man it’s Blake”.
Because we were both sleep deprived and still dealing with the stresses of a very intense day yesterday, we thought it would be fun to respond with “hey man, I’m heading to the gym. Meet me there in 30.”
Laughter ensued.

About ten minutes ago, Blake called and she answered, telling him he had the wrong number.
I can’t repeat the text he sent after hanging up, but we laughed a lot.

Moral to the story: don’t text your mates when partly asleep and possibly hung over unless you are sure you have the right number. Your memory may not be as good as you think it is.
