I called her to say that the note cards were ready. She then overly thanked me, not for the note cards but for most things in general. I never know quite what to say because agreeing that I'm the greatest doesn't seem to be the right thing.

After, the storm of her gratitude answered with my platitude she mentioned that my sister teaches her daughter math. I felt a bit uneasy even though the kind statements were now transferred to my sibling's teaching abilities. I wish to be mostly unknown.

I wondered how it would have come up that we were brother and sister - my last name must be slipping out. I'll have to find that leak.
