Caroline was easy to please this year. She wanted a friend party. I didn't.
Well, some of our favorite people in Buffalo, dental student grads Michelle and Devon, are leaving to join a practice in El Paso this week. When I approached them about a going away party, the only day left that would work for them was last Friday, Caroline's birthday.
"Perfect!"
So we hijacked Devon and Michelle's farewell party for about 10 minutes to break open her unicorn pinata and sing Happy Birthday. She was perfectly happy with the event until things began winding down and she realized we'd never made it to the big finale -Where you open a big pile of presents!
Apparently at this point she decided to confront some people about this. After Adrian Dayton gave her a dollar she was emboldened and started hitting up all the men. I didn't realize this till I heard her interrogating the real guest of honor, Devon, with "Why didn't you bring me a present?"
Before I could stop him or her she had another dollar in her hand. Later when I told Brent about it, he said he heard her talking to several guys asking them the same question.
Unfortunately for Caroline though we invited too many poor students. She only came home with $2 dollars and they both came from the only two grads there.
