Life is made of stories, and with both my Sun and Mercury in Gemini, I can’t pry myself away from telling (or listening) to what I think is a good one. It’s a long read, but I hope you find some entertainment in the following tale.

Around the end of September, while my parent’s were fast asleep in their beds, someone broke into their house.

It was an odd robbery. Despite there being passports, prescription medication, and full bottles of alcohol on the counter, what they ended up taking was my mother’s purse (filled with ID, glasses, car keys, and credit cards), half of a pumpkin pie from the fridge, a pack of halls, and the star of this story, my dad’s cell phone.

From my parent’s house they went to a nearby convenience store, and used my mother’s credit card. Then, they hit up a gas station for some snacks, and followed that up with a trip to McDonald’s.

I guess the pumpkin pie wasn’t quite filling enough.
