Dean's coming

I heard this several times during the night. I was at a wedding on Sat. , One of my cousins twin daughters got married .  I think I'd met her precisely 3 times. The first time at her high school graduation party, two other times at other cousins kids graduation parties.  Upon opening her RSVPs to the wedding, when she got to mine she called up her mom and dad and exclaimed, 'Dean's coming'. I'm not sure how I got to this exalted status but I'm one of the few that will take on her dad, called T-bear by her college friends.  It was only a 11.5 hour drive each way and going thru Chicago.

  1. I've said it before, but you are the only stroke survivor I know ballsy enough to pull a "dean" by driving so far AND through Chicago. I'll bet you do 80 sometimes.

    1. I set my cruise control at 80 most of the time and have been known to set it at 85. Using the cruise control allows me to drive with the left hand and drink my coffee thru a straw, so far I've not had to drop the coffee to correct the aiming of the car. Driving is much easier now that I have a turn signal extender. I've even removed the spinner knob.

    2. I love my spinner knob and directional extension. Congrats on figuring out a way to drink coffee and drive. I miss that.
