Father’s birthday - home- relatives
The day after tomorrow is father’s seventieth birthday. My wife Jamie had sent invitations to all our relatives. Uncle Jonathan in San Jose will drive up here, but people like Aunty Judy in Seattle or Aunty Jean in Denver are too far from San Francisco and must catch a plane.
One of Father’s bothers-in-law, who operates a hotel, said he can give us discounts of using their ballroom, but the details are being managed by Mom.
Besides the relatives, we will also be expecting many family friends and employees from his company. I am responsible for contacting those who will be attending. It was not as easy as I thought, because there were too many people to call or e-mail.
My daughter said she is going to get all five of her boyfriends to come help us set up. She will see which one behaves the best, stay with him, and get rid of the rest.
Homework - Home - Absent
Emily was absent on Thursday, so she called her classmate, Anthony, to find out what the homework was.
Emily : Anthony, what homework do we have today?
Anthony : Hold on, let me check. By the way, are you feeling better now?
Emily : Yeah, it was just a cold.
Anthony : Cheater, you didn’t come, ‘cause you didn’t want to take the test today!
Emily : Shut up ~!I am not like you!
Anthony : Chill, man, I was just kidding!
Emily : Whatever, just hurry up.
Anthony : Okay ~you got a lot of work to catch up on.
Emily : How can that be? We only have four classes today.
Anthony : Somehow Mr. Harper was pissed off, so he gave us like 40 problems.
Emily : What! My God, he’s such a jerk!
Anthony : Yeah, all math teachers are evil.
Emily : That’s for sure.
