Thank you.
My bday was actually back in October. I told my brother not to get me anything....he's gone WAY overboard with extravagant gifts for me in the past few years and I really appreciate it but didn't need him doing that. He works hard for his money.
The first one was explained away as making up for lost time when he wasn't behaving very brotherly (I stood by him through some really difficult years...that even put my life in danger at times....drugs are a cruel reality folks). OK, fine...I accepted one really nice gift (TV). Then another one showed up. And another. He's always been super generous and that was part of his downfall as people glommed on to that.
It wasn't necessary for him to shower me with stuff....he didn't have to go crazy to make up for lost time and so I told him to stop. Just be happy and live a good life...that's the best gift.
But yes, I will accept an invite to the game any time. Of course. I ain't stupid!!
Building new memories together....good ones.
