The Christmas Blessing Page #4

What's wrong with

being a mechanic?

You're a mechanic.

Yeah, but if I was smart

enough to be a doctor,

I'd be a doctor, Nathan.

I don't know, I just --

Oh, wait a minute,

what are you saying?

You think you're gonna

move back in here with me?

Is that it?

Why not?

Son, I'm planning

on selling the house.

What are you talking about?

I'm getting restless

here, I need a change.

Dad, you can't -- no!

You can't do that.

What do you mean, no?

I mean, it's okay for you to

make a change in your life

But not me, is that

what you're saying?

Dad, I grew up in this house.

(country western music playing)

(laughing)

Okay, where are we?

I take all the girls I'm trying

to seduce to this very place.

Really?

Yeah.

Brave of you.

It sounds like a good choice.

Well, if you can't

bring the girl to Texas,

Bring Texas to the girl.

Wow.

Right?

I had no idea

this place was here.

Oh, yeah, I'm full of surprises.

Cheers.

(glasses clink)

So how'd a Texas girl

end up in new England?

Oh...Cowboys.

Let's just say

I took a bad fall.

Tex loved NASCAR, rodeo,

and Pat Conroy --

Deadly combination in my book.

I thought he was

the only guy for me,

And he fooled me into thinking

I was the only girl for him.

So, when I picked myself up,

I thought it would be a good

time to go someplace else.

What about you?

Yeah, there was one.

Rachel.

We fought like cats and dogs but

we were crazy about each other,

Talked about marriage

the whole year.

We actually planned

on running away together.

The day came, we gathered

up all our clothes

And what little money

we had in a dirty sock,

And then our moms caught us

and we got grounded.

What was this, fifth grade?

Fourth grade, yeah.

Oh, okay.

So nothing serious since Rachel?

My mom always said you don't

look for the right person,

You...Discover each other.

You must be proud of yourself,

building up a business.

What?

What'd you say, Lydia?

I said, you must be

proud of yourself,

Building up a business.

Oh, yeah, it's

only a garage, so...

It's yours.

Reflects your hard work.

A lot of men couldn't have

accomplished what you have.

Well, I'm not the most organized

guy in the world, so good luck.

That's okay, at least you have

a computer, that's a start.

Yeah, that was from my son.

It was a few years ago.
