things are good

Not a whole lot to report today.  My husband and I took my brother out for breakfast today.  We always go to the International House of Pancakes, especially since the restaurant we used to go to in the summer which had outdoor seating has closed.  I need to find somewhere else where we can sit outside, because my brother is indoors so, so much.

My brother was chipper.  He told me about an article he had read in the Chicago Tribune that suggested that the Dan Draper character in Mad Men was based on D.B. Cooper, who he thinks was aan outlaw who disappeared with a lot of loot.  It always amazes me about the kind of information my brother picks up, considering he is intellectually impaired.  So then I asked him if he had ever watched the show and he said no.  Go figure.   I am intrigued about all this so as soon as I get off the blog, I'm going to the Tribune website to check out the story.  

I'll take what I can get.  No news is good news when it comes to my brother.
