Siblings

David IMed me this morning to ask me what to get Dad for his birthday, and I sent him to CafePress, because Dad will not buy new t-shirts on his own, but will wear his old ones until they fall to pieces, so that Mom is embarassed to be seen with him. (Engineers do this, and I don't know why.) About 5 minutes later David IMed me back to say, "You need this shirt." And then I laughed until my stomach hurt, because the truth is hilarious.

I know! I was momentarily shocked at his perception, and then I remembered that he is my brother and has possibly picked up a few things about my personality over the 21 years we have known each other. Still, though. I think I'll buy it.
