Today was an "un"day. Unexpected. Unusual. Unlikely. It all started at 5am with the driver that never showed up. For whatever reason, the car we had arranged for Ashley did not show up at 5am. The oddity and offness of the day continued with oversleeping and running late to lunch with my faux-godmother (she's not technically my godmother but she has known me since I was little and is very good to my brother and I and was our most trusted long-term babysitter). Running into a rain storm while peddle-boating with faux-godmother's real godchildren. And then there was the wardrobe malfunction. This being polite company, I can't disclose the details, but it did involve a trip to the nearest available undies store where the over-attentive sales lady over-shared my measurements and commentary on my body size with faux-godmother while I was in the dressing room (I believe the trigger was "I like your uniform."). Yet the surrealness did not end there. The surrealness was sitting on the edge of a hotel bed sipping Inner Mongolian milk tea (salty and strange) as faux-godmother visited with a distant friend on a sighseeing tour from the mainland whose father had taken a fall. Huh? You say. Exactly. Huh, indeed. A completely bizzaro day.
