we don't make leprechaun traps

1. I saw Keith Richards in the Ralph's Market the other day. It's hard with the masks and everything, and it probably wasn't him because he lives in London or somewhere else, but there were his eyes, the hair wildly sticking up above the bandana around his head, the craggy face. Thin legs. Keith was carrying a red basket. Keith wouldn't push a cart around. He doesn't eat enough for a cart. I saw a flash of yellow before he headed to the register. I couldn't really see what was in the basket, maybe bananas. 

I'm no portrait artist but you can kind of see it, right?

2. My friend, Monica sent a picture of her daughter's leprechaun trap. 



Claire said, I never made one of those when I was a kid. 
I said, That's because we don't catch leprechauns.
Claire said, Oh, my 70's Mom!
Because people who grew up in the 70's left leprechauns alone to live their lives.
Anyway, I said, I'm pretty sure my Dad was one.



Two things. 

BIG LOVE.
