Unique birthday package

I was very surprised to receive a crazy package
from one of my mission companions, "Davis" who
I haven't talked to on the phone or seen in years!
Yet, she has never forgotten my birthday since
1991. This had an interesting quote on the side of the package:












What was inside was absolutely hilarious! Here's a list of a few things that were all wrapped in cellophane bags with white label tags on the top:
  • Giant Slobber Stopper (a bib)
  • Magnifying Glasses
  • Old Geezer Lost Yer Marbles: Replacement Pack: Helps stop drains of the brain (marbles)
  • 40 Sucks (a lollipop)
  • Too Pooped to Pop (microwave popcorn)
  • Poop Woman's Boob Job: Completely adjustable. No surgery required (2 black balloons to be blown up to size needed)
  • Make-up Applicator (a huge paintbrush)

Then, there was a list of "Top 10 Old Folks Party Games" -- these are my favorites:

  • Musical Recliners
  • Spin the Bottle of Mylanta
  • Kick the Bucket
  • Pin the Toupee on the Bald Guy
  • Simon Says Something Incoherent

This package did, of course, prompt a phone call that lasted almost 2 hours. How fun to catch up with an old (she is already 40) friend! She is a wonderful, thoughtful person (who likes a really good joke!) Thanks Anne Marie!
