The First 3 Letters Of Your Name

"To the young lady I met on Wednesday, I was very pleased to meet you. I would very much like to see you again. Please write the first three letters of your name on this note if you feel the same. -Charles"

I found this on a note taped to a telephone pole in my neigborhood.

Superman

There's a little boy on my street who everytime I see him he is in a Superman costume.

Man In The Mirror

The other day my roomie and I were on our way to the State Fair to see MC Hammer perform. When we went it was rush hour so traffic was kinda stop and go. We came to be by a car with a guy who was playing "Man In The Mirror" (my fave MJ song) and singing along very loudly and very into it. We started dancing and singing too and so he turned it up for us. We were alongside him for a bit and all 3 of us were just jamming. Never exchanged any words or anything, just let MJ bring us together in a short and random way.

Ice Cream

Yesterday we took our neighbor boys to the walk-up Dairy Queen down the street.

Happy Birthday Bryan!

For about 2 weeks or so we knew that one of our neighbor boy's birthdays was June 11th. From that time on, every time we saw him we'd yell "Happy Birthday Bryan!" & he'd yell back in a frustrated voice "IT'S NOT MY BIRTHDAY!" sometimes with a growl. Well, last Thursday was his birthday so we bought him a "happy birthday" balloon & 2 bags of mini-twix (his favorite candy we had found out earlier) & went to his front door and sang Happy Birthday to him. His face got red, but he was all smiles. He even hugged us when he said thank you!

Pain & Love

I like to go where people say I shouldn't. I go there looking for pain & love. And I never fail to find both, sometimes in the same thing.

Cheese Puffs

Yesterday was Dine for Life. If you ate at certain restaurants 50% of the cost of your meal went to the HIV/AIDS center in town. We ate at a nice restaurant downtown & parked in a parking garage. When we left two ladies were working in the booth where you pay when you drive out. They had off-brand cheese puffs. I imagined that off-brand cheese puffs would taste like foam or cardboard. I said aloud "I wonder if off-brand cheese puffs taste as good." So my friend who was driving asked the ladies how they were. They said they were good & said "here, you want to try some." I was full from my meal, but there are some things you just can't say no to & one is the parking garage ladies offering you cheese puffs. Really? I mean, how often does that happen? And they were right! They were just as good as name brand kinds. No more name brand cheese puffs for me, Kroger brand is great!
