Happy birthday to Weston The Husband (Weston Ochse), who turns...
hmmm.
Should I lie?
Should I make myself look good by saying he's younger than me and I cradle-robbed? Should I tell everyone we should all celebrate that he has lived to see yet another birthday despite his wild ride through the Army and his adventures thereafter?
Should I tell them about the time a tribal chief in another country once offered him a woman as a gift and all he could think about was (because the Army won't let you have any gift worth over something like $65) ...
"Is she worth $65?"
And then, because anything over $65 has to go in a warehouse:
"If she's worth more than $65, will she be okay in the warehouse?"
Oh, the options of story telling do abound.
