Message from Autumn

Today at work I got a phone call, I answered to a little voice saying "Hey, what are you doing?"  "Are you going to come see me this weekend?"  I was excited to hear it was awesome.  My answer to her was "Maybe".  She then said,  "what are you doing right now?"  I told her I was working.  She then asked me where I worked, I told her, followed by what do you do.  So I told her talk on the telephone and work on the computer.  Next question from a five year old now. "How much do you make?".  I then asked her why?  She said because I want to spend it!  I laughed, changed the subject to her haircut and I heard she got a haircut, and I asked her did she still look like Autumn.  She answered, No, I don't.  Then I asked her who she looked like then.  She said a ten year old!  I told her I didn't want her older than she was to stay five.  Then she went back to the earlier conversation.  Her comment, "You said Maybe earlier, that doesn't mean yes, are you coming to see me?"  I really want too bad!  I always love seeing that little one.  I still can't make up my mind, my air conditioner quit working, I'm broke, and I really don't want to drive 3 hours there, and three back on Sunday.  I don't think I'm going to make it.  I need a weekend to clean.  But I can't wait to see her new do!  Mama said they were talking the other day and Autumn had asked her what she would do if it was her last day on earth,  I think she's been watching too many movies where comets are crashing towards Earth.  Anyway mama told her she didn't know, what would she do.  Autumns answer, "I'd turn around and kiss my butt goodbye!"  "Then I'd say hey to Jesus."
