This is really short but funny. Not adding a spoiler here -- just go read the whole post.

When I got to work this morning, I had a note on my computer that said, "Check in the morning." I had the sense yesterday evening to write a note, knowing that I would forget to check. However, I neglected to tell myself what I was checking. Getting old sucks.

Here's one amusing story: The place that we stayed had one of those bars that you could swim up and order food and drinks. Mom went up the last afternoon and ordered an ice cream sundae, which of course, Americans pronounce "sun-di." The Thai bartender looked puzzled. Mom repeated the order, and he continued to not understand. When she pointed it out on the menu, he actually corrected her English: "That's Sun-Day."
