I have a small scar on my chin. 
When I was in the 4th grade I was walking to get a drink one day and was paying more attention to Ginny Potter.
I tripped over a piece of raised concrete fell and cut my chin on the fountain. 
I had to go see my doctor to get stitches. 
My biggest fear was that the anesthetic wouldn’t work on me, that I was so different and special that it worked on everyone else in the world but not on me.   It did work though. 
I'm glad I’m not as special as I thought.

Last night I got up to use the restroom and was startled by the pulsating green glow outside of our living room window.  It seemed to get stronger/brighter whenever I showed any fear.  I was worried that an E.T. might be visiting me.  I thought it was strange that they would come to Escondido and land in our backyard.  I was getting ready to dial 911 then thought, “what will the police think”?  Would they even come over?  I thought I better turn on the light to see better but then would the E.T. attack and kill me or worse yet take me to their spaceship and run tests on me.  Would they then bring me back a “changed” person and would my friends and family know me or even believe my spaceship/E.T. story.  I looked again at the living room glow and realized I left my computer on while I was charging it thus the pulsating glowing light.

My hair has been getting gray for about 25 years now.  I have a feeling that women are attracted to this look.  In fact a study I read said that women are attracted to bald men (strangely enough) first and second to them are men with gray hair.  Before I was married I had two women ask me to go on a cruise with them (not at the same time that would be kinky, I’m talking about two different women at two separate times).  They were both in their eighties but I was still flattered.  Luckily I was dating my now wife at the time so I had an out.  I said, “I’m sorry but Shauna won’t let me go on cruises with other women.”  My backup would be that as a financial adviser we are only allowed to accept a $50 gift from clients.  Having gray hair is such a curse…
