No, that's even better because I'm out of focus. Yeah, out of focus is always good. Whereas my mom would say, you are out of focus. My mother said the most wonderful things, the best thing she ever said. And I can't always tell this story, but I know I can with you. Tell me. My brother was graduating from high school, and she gave him a little party. And she had about, I don't know, about...

Ten people, grownups. And she was so proud of him that he was graduating from, as she called it, junior high. Oh. Junior high. And she said, everybody, I want to say something. Okay. And she said, I am so proud. I just want to tell you that he is graduating today from LeConte Junior High. Can you imagine the expressions on faces?

I mean, there were people who... I mean, there were eyes that went like this. Big, big eyes. And I remember I ran to her and I said... Mommy, for God's sake. But she didn't know. She didn't know. No, I know. Of course not. But it was also very, very annoying, too, sometimes. And I said, A-E-I-O-U. Can't you say that? Can't you say? She said, no.

And you know very well why I got trouble with my bowels. So leave me alone. She was funny.

Actually, if she were alive, you should ask her, because I'll never understand how she did it. She had two or three jobs at once. My mother was a wonderful seamstress. She had jobs sewing. She would leave me with a friend, and she would go down to the... The district where they do all the sewing and that kind of stuff. The garment district? Thank you.

That's the one thing that's happened since I became this age. I forget nouns. That's fine. I'm here for you. I'm here for you. Okay. Anyway, she did that. She took me to shows. She took me to dancing class. I used to dance for Grandpa in Puerto Rico. And that's how it all started, because I used to dance to records. And he loved it. He'd clap in time, and he'd laugh, and he'd smile.

It's not as though I'm fighting and battling all these fans. I don't have that kind of career or life. So it's cool. And I just moved from a big house to a condo in a lovely little town near San Francisco.
