You know what? It feels good to do something nice for someone!

As I was leaving Wild Wings after lunch today (only time this week... the checkbook told me to cut back!) there were three girls, probably 17 or 18 walking across the driveway. I stopped well back so that they would know I wasn't going to run them over. They waved, and motioned to me, so I rolled the window down. They asked if I was going to a road that in fact was right on my way back to work, and sounded pretty desperate to get there. They had been waiting for a bus... if you know the bus service around here, you know that's a bit of a risky proposition. Anyway, against my usual judgment, I motioned for them to get in the back seat, and gave them a ride, maybe five minutes. When we got into the area where they wanted to be I had to pull teeth to get them to tell me where they wanted to be dropped off, they were in "anywhere is alright" mode. I just told them when they have a chance to do something nice for someone, to do it. They said they had asked lots of people, I'm glad it was me and not some creep that picked them up.

And now I am almost ready for the weekend! smile
