The Wild One, The Director and I were looking for photo ops today. The following conversation took place:
Me: Honey, where do you want to go now?
Wild One: I was thinking about going downtown.
Me: Yeah, that would be fun. We could have lunch down there, too. (Checked my pocket for change.) Oh, wait…I don’t have enough change for the parking meters down there. Do you guys have any change?
The Director: Nope.
Wild One: I don’t think so.
(While I thought about how we could get change for the parking meters, I remembered what happened two days ago, and my face brightened.)
Me: It’s okay–we can go. We don’t have to worry about the parking meters.
Wild One: Why?
Me: Because Obama’s going to give us the change we need!
::Collective groan:: I know. But I thought it was funny, anyway.

Jeff,
Ha ha ha! Love this!
By the way, were you able to scrounge up some change for the meters?
Or did you “wing-and-prayer-it?” (Hee hee, another play on words there! Smiles 🙂
