The Great Manipulator

Man... I gotta have Owen go out of town more often.  I just got off the phone with him.  He was busy jumping from bed to bed in the hotel room (sometimes with flips) and watching the Sponge Bob movie while he talked to me....but despite those distractions it was a delightful conversation.

At one point he said, "now, I KNOW you're going to cry after you get off the phone, but I want to tell you that you are a role model to me, you're a hero.  You really are.  I'm NOT just saying that.  You stand up to problems and you are really wonderful. I love you SO much."

O.k.  He was right.  I cried....just a little...but yeah....

Of course Owen has also somehow convinced his father that if certain pieces in the booth sell---he gets half the money. 

Owen...the great manipulator....

Lord...I love him so.....
