Surprise!
Don’t you just love surprises?
Well yesterday, I got two of them.
First Surprise
I found an old friend on Facebook. We hadn’t seen each other for maybe two or three years, maybe even more, so it was nice to reconnect. I saw this guy grow up; he used to live across the lane and was friends with my oldest son.
Second Surprise
After we exchanged a bunch of messages on Facebook – news about our respective families, what’s happening in our lives these days, are we in love or not, how’s the health and all that jazz – good ol’ Éric sent me this drawing: he took my Oza cartoon, crossed her arms, and drew himself at her side. Too cool! Worst is, I had forgotten how well he can draw.
I’d like to remind you that if you really want to get in on this trip, if your Inner Kid still believes in magic, then go to Facebook and register. Once you’ve registered, glide on over to my group, Road Trip Destination Happiness, and join. That’s how you’ll get to see all the people who are on this trip – a mighty swell gang, from places all over the World. Even my dear ex-neighbour is in the van…oh yeah.
One Last Thing
Apart from his talent for drawing, Éric Goyette is an excellent guitarist, bassist and singer (rock and blues), as well as a cabinetmaker. And now that he’s back in Montréal, he’s looking for work. So if ever you need his services, please send me a message on my contact page. Thanks!
