When The Hover-Round Dies...

I had one of the greatest days of my life today.

First, Nathan and I went to John Hardy's...which was wonderful...great food I must say.

Second, we bought a loaf of bread and fed the Silver Lake geese. It started off with 1-3 geese...and pretty soon the entire park of geese was flocking to us. It was kind of creepy, but hilarious.

Third, we took a walk. Then wandered around Broadway...just enjoying the warm weather. We walk past a woman with a Hover-Round. She stops us and asks if we can give her a push. We think yeah sure, just needs a little push to get going perhaps? NO. She had forgotton to charge her stupid wheelchair like thing and was stranded. I must say she wasn't a light woman, nor the Hover-Round a light piece of equipment. Nathan Frye managed to push her for 6 blocks, even though she claimed it twas only a block. We reached a cross-walk with a timer...we only had 7 seconds to get this woman across...we realized we would fail...so we backed up...the 2nd time an older Asian man saw that we were struggling...so he helped us get her across just in time. This woman was odd. Her name was Phyllis. Once we finally reached Newbridge Community Center (which until we actually saw it in sight, we didn't believe it existed) we saw some of her friends in the lobby...they said "Phyllis...did you forget to charge your chair AGAIN?" We took her to her room on the 4th floor. We plugged her in. She was appreciative. We are going to heaven, and I applaud Nathan for his amazingness.

Fourth, we drove randomly around and ran into a Caribbean gocery store. We bought amazing Soda. It tasted like carmel...it was soooo good. And we listened to reggae music with the windows down and the music up.

Fifth, we went to the mall. It started out with people-watching and turned into acting.

Nathan was my brother. We were looking for a birthday present for our 62 year old mother. She is very picky and simplistic. She is also alergic to Rodon or whatever it is that is in almost ALL jewelry. All the jewelery salespeople were helpful. Too bad our story wasn't true. It was fun though...we went to 4 jewelry stores at the mall.

Nathan was also the person who got me pregnant. We went to Motherhood Maternity. The woman claimed I was so tiny so she didn't want to offend me by asking if we were shopping for me. And we got informed of how elastic pants work. We were from another city and visiting my mother who was in the hospital. It was quite entertaining.

That twas the conclusion of our day. It was very successful. It was very random, but we had so much fun. Nathan Frye is great. That's all you need to know.

So now you know what happens when the Hover-Round dies....
