He was naturally reluctant to give up any part of his duties to someone else.He had said he would not treat Lanno as an apprentice. Unfortunately, he ...ould not shake the idea that this is precisely what Lanno was. There simply was no way that the young man could profess to have even the fraction of experience that Vanlo had."Is there anything else I need to know before I start?" Lanno finally prompted Vanlo.Vanlo shook his head slowly. "No. Please go about your duties, then." He started to turn. I could tell by the way they were failing miserably in their efforts not to smile that I had been set up in some way."Okay ladies, spill it. How do you cater a picnic on another planet?"After the fit of giggling died down, Felicia reached into her pocket and pulled out her enhanced cell phone."Its simple! You just pull out your new, handy-dandy interplanetary communicator and call A.J. McKesson!"I pulled out my cell then and gave Grandpa a call. The plan was for me to pick up the catering crew,. Know what she said? she said I look a lotlike her, when she was younger. That's how Moms are, they always loveyou. "No matter what."Now here's something you may find interestingEverything you read above is true, but there is more. I guess Karma isweird, because something strange happened about 5 to 6-months later. Iwas 8 at the time and in third grade near Easter time. I got in somereally bad trouble (not my fault) and was kicked out of school. I guessyou could say I was hanging with the wrong. The pictures he emailed tome showed that the place he went was good. Instead of seeing my husband,or even a guy in a dress, I saw a very attractive, stylish woman.Then I got angry. Even though I knew it wasn't the case, I felt like Iwas not enough of a woman for him. I was angry that he didn't want to bemy husband. I was worried that he'd want to be a woman completely orthat he'd leave me for a man.One night, having drunk too much wine and upset about the provocative,glamour shot pictures.
