the list

I am writing a fictional story for a women's fashion magazine and trying to clean up my place in anticipation of out of town visitors. During the razing, I found a list of things to bring to the coast for my dad's birthday, which was in September:

- New David Sedaris book;
- Rose's macaroons;
- my sassy attitude.

I have to think I was on the phone with my sister when I wrote the list; that last one sounds like something she'd tell me to pack.

I’m always amazed at the cleaning products that I find under my sink. And slightly suspicious: Who bought those?

Who put them there?

Back to work.
