The Daily Babble

Reprieve?

I got a birthday card from my niece Megan, now in college. On the front is a black and white photo of a boy, who looks a lot like I did at 7 or so, in a drawn color Superman outfit. (I never had one, though my Aunt Toni promised to make me one. Children forget a lot of things, but they never forget promises.)

The card's message: "You're always on the right side of that fine line between cool and dorky."

Phew. Another birthday passed without edging into complete irrelevance. Thanks, Megan.
