Amidst a Snow Storm
I sent Sienna to school, fetched my Tim’s coffee and got my car washed. I was getting ready for a series of errands on what looked like a beautiful day. Little did I know the biggest storm of the year was in brewing...
The snow started a little and didn’t even make me regret about the car wash. Right then, my girlfriend L since my birth called and started to whine, “You are my pillar of power now. I had my uterus taken out. When I call, you must be there...” My suggestion? “Maybe shaving your hair to become a nun isn’t a bad idea after all (referring to the recent news about a celebrity converting to Buddha). This way, I don’t worry you would come up with anything else worse.” I was on the phone while I was browsing camera reviews and putting the laundry away and cooking lunch. When I handed the husband a bowl of jumbo shrimp wonton soup, half of the dad had gone by. I ventured out still with nothing to fear weather wise.
First stop was a nearby public school to do some research. Nothing came out of it. The snow stormed was officially coming when I came out of the school yard. I phoned my girlfriend A reporting my day so far.
“I am on H (the street) right now.” I said.
“I am on H too. Hey, is that you?” asked she.
“Are you behind me? You are joking! Flash the lights.” I requested and the car behind did.
The rest of the conversation was nothing else but laughing. She was catching me up from my right side. Both dropped the phones. Both rolled the windows down.
“This should be your next car.” She commented.
“No, Volvo is too conservative for me.” I decided.
“I am going to pick up J now.” She sped away in her “CrossCountry”.
I was moving timidly in my sporty sedan on the increasingly slippery ground. Dropping a dozen of other items on my to-do list, I fled the snow to come home.
