Twenty five years ago today....
I was delivering singing balloonagrams.

I had to wear this goofy white top hat and tails with a red T-shirt.

I did 14 deliveries my one and only Valentines day delivering the balloons.

Two school teachers, on in the inner city and one in the suburbs. I was mocked silly.

I delivered one to a construction site. The fiance had ordered a woman, but they sent me instead. I was pelted with construction debris.

My last delivery was a valentine bouquet of balloons to s stripper who was turning 18 as well.

It was her coming out as a legal stripper.

It was in a rather unsavory establishment but it was touching to know the girl who was wiggling her stuff with me on stage was street legal.

It was interesting, to say the least, my favorite valentine day, in fact.

It was a one of a kind experience and I will always cherish that day.
