I just started fourth grade, so I was either nine or ten years old and my family lived right at the end of a street that was just over half a mile long.

I used to hate walking up and down that thing and you can call me lazy if you want but

it's true. It was five minutes of boring nothingness every time I walked for the school bus or my mom sent me to the corner store.

So, this one time, mom sends me to the store to pick up flour or eggs or something. The walk to the store it looked like

it was going to rain. By the time I had walked out of the store, goods in hand, it was raining

like you wouldn't believe. Looking back on it, I probably could have just ran there and back again, but I've always been incredibly lazy, so hard knowing that.

Instead, I ran to a bus shelter right in front of me, refusing to walk home until the rain had at least

mellowed out a little.

I shared a nice lady's umbrella for a block or two, but she soon changed course for me and I ended up stuck under the shelter

in front of this beauty parlor, real close to where our streets started.

If I committed to the walk, I was going to get drenched and I also remember not wanting to get whatever it was my mom

wanted wet in the rain so instead of walking I decided to stick my thumb out at

passing cars. I was old enough to understand that sticking your thumb out like that was magically what made people give you a ride and it took a while to get someone's attention, but in the end I did.

This older looking car, which seemed like it was heading down the street,

suddenly slowed down, then parked just after the bus shelter I was taking cover under.
