Veering off-course
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
Can it be nearly 40 years gone since that fateful night? For some reason, I had the house to myself. Mom and Dad were probably at Tac's, the local Chinese restaurant and lounge where Mom worked part-time after her full shift in the warehouse at a magazine distributorship. My elder sister Debi was probably out with her beau, recently released from the hospital, and for the life of me, I can't imagine where the younger children were. They probably made themselves scarce since there were dishes to be done.
