a gift that keeps on giving
Natalya received two important cards this week, one from the federal government and one from the city library. Though she doesn’t have a wallet at the moment, she’s never supposed to carry the first card in it, and probably won’t need to carry the latter one either, even though she’ll probably be using it considerably more*.
I’ve already begun using her number to reserve more movies, as well as children’s music, which I will duly file away to hopefully never need to use as a disciplinary measure.
* It is my hope that she picks up my propensity for memorizing several-digit numbers. I’ve got two of my credit card numbers, all three of our social security numbers and now all three of our credit cards, as well as a random smattering of phone numbers, available at a moment’s thought. But ask me how old I am, and I’m stumped for several seconds.
