Uncle Billy, Goodfellas and God's Sense of Humor...
Yes, I'll admit it. I can be a little absent minded.
I've been known to forget my kids at school, or to pick them up at my parents' house on my way home from work then having to backtrack to get them after driving all the way home. I have forgotten my reading glasses on days I'm scheduled to read at Mass. And, of course, my wife's all-time favorite; I forget to pay the bills on time. You can say I'm the It's A Wonderful Life's Uncle Billy of the Espinosa clan. Although, I think our firstborn has inherited my prowess, or lack thereof!
Every Friday, for the past couple of years, I am the scheduled lector at morning Mass at my parish. I can honestly say, for the most part, I have been very reliable, even on Holidays.
