I'm at a warehouse paying for a new (replacement) roll-up steel garage door and the kindly old gentleman trying to figure out how to charge my AMEX on an obsolete desktop looks like he's been installing garage doors since they were barn doors in which to keep the horses. What should take two minutes (MAX) is going on twenty. The kindly old (late 70's) lady behind me (next in line) asks me "You watching the Final Four?" Wallet in hand I whip out my KU Alumni Association card and say "I'm a mighty Kansas Jayhawk but my season is over."
She gave me a sympathetic "knowing" look
and changed the subject.
It felt weird to be in that mood this time of year. Makes me appreciate how spoiled we've been
Oh well, next year!!
