I Can Be Such a Jerk


And at last this behavior has worked in my favor. A couple of weeks ago this very sweatshirt appeared in my feed on Facebook. I declared that Ed should buy it for me since it expresses my sentiments about the current calendar year so perfectly. Then an extraordinary thing happened. Ed bought this shirt for me. And wished me a happy birthday. I was stunned. Being a smartass worked out for me for the first time. Ed is a sweet, quite wonderful man and I feel fortunate to count him among my friends. And now I have a new favorite cozy fleecy shirt to wear when winter inevitably sets in. Thanks Ed! I vow to turn over a new leaf and be less of a smartass. Unless it could work again. Don't encourage me.
