madrobinsToday we went out to Martinez to have a pow-wow with Sarcasm Girl about life, the next semester, and everything. We also walked around Martinez (which is kind of a cute little town) and wandered out into the wildlife sanctuary on the bay, and then went to SG's favorite antique store (and permit me a moment to enjoy the fact that my 19-year-old daughter has a favorite antique store). And there, among all the other astonishingly odd and cool things (this was not your high-end antique store: it was full of oddities, old games and toys, books, clothes...you name it) was a 1945 copy of Emily Post's Etiquette. Already I have discovered how to comport myself in a lady-like fashion if I am invited to a wedding at which I know no one; that a puppy is invaluable in making friends in a new town; and the proper way to respond to (or hold) a shower party.
My mother would be proud.
