I never leave my mother's empty handed

Whenever I come back from my mother's house she always sends me home with a ton of stuff. This time I took home earrings, a crocheted blanket, Star Wars pins, a cute cat tin, a journal with an inscription from 1983, ant traps, a workout DVD, a Rolling Stones hat, hand painted coasters and a tote bag. I'm probably forgetting something but that's a lot of stuff.

We had dinner at a really good Chinese restaurant near her house. She said we were only going to have one glass of wine but the two times I went to the bathroom another glass magically appeared. How did that happen mom?

I can't tell if Bosco misses Mr. Binx or if he's thrilled to have me all to himself. He has been attached to me like a barnacle all day.

Here's the note from the journal if you're curious. What an odd inscription.
