Have to tell you a funny story about watching the space shuttle. I was visiting Robyn, she lives near you Levy, and they were suppose to shoot off a space shuttle at 4:00 am. Robyn asked if I wanted to get up that early to see it. Of course, my immediate reply was, "yes". So up at 4 and outside in our p.j.'s {no one was up but us, because to them, it was a normal experience.] We had the front door open with the TV on loudly to get the running commentary. I looked up and saw some Spanish moss, which at that very second seemed like a must for me to bring home. Couldn't quite reach it, so we went into the house and got a couple of tennis rackets to knock it down. We were jumping up and down hitting at the moss when a few neighbors walked out. The first words out of one guys mouth was, "Why are you out here at 4 in the morning, playing tennis?" Robyn without thinking replied, "This is my mother, you haven't met her. She just wanted to get up." At that moment I ran into the house. I hide whenever I see those neighbors to this day. I'm sure they feel sorry for Robyn. |
