I feel like Morgan Freeman but instead of Miss Daisy I am driving Master Graham. I have been driving around for four weeks with this huge picture of him. It is his Senior Picture from 1993 that the photographer used as a sample. I love how it shows how serious and intense Graham is. I find the shadow particularly interesting. The shadow looks as if he is sitting on the pot talking on the phone which he has been known to do when I call him. The worst is when I didn't know that is what was going on and then I hear the flush. Anyway, Saddler's Photography sadly shut down this year and they put out an announcement that you could come and get the samples. I hated to think of him being thrown in the trash (this is a sign of how much I have grown in 40 years), so I made an appointment to go pick him up. I left him in the car so I wouldn't forget to take him to my mom's when I go at Easter, but got sick of him falling all over my groceries and such so now he sits in my dining room on the bench with the rest of the stuff that I just can't find a place for yet. I am thinking of auctioning to the highest bidder and the money could go to the charity of Graham's choice. If I forget to take it to my mom's at Easter that is definitely what I am going to do. Where does the bidding start for a wicked cool picture of a hipster before hipster's were cool? Maybe I will just keep it and put it back in the car to help keep me company on long drives.
