I think I take my English pronunciation for granted sometimes. But I guess we all realize that when we try to learn another language. I came into work about 30 minutes early so I decided to finish my Ben and Jerry's ice cream outside. Driver Dan gave me a copy of his cd. He has a band called "The Warlords of Rock and Roll" It's like a comedy music act. I have yet to hear it but I soon will. While I was sitting outside I noticed how nice the weather was. Breezy, the sun was slowly setting, everyone seemed to be out and about after a week of 100 degree torture. How easy it is to forget amongst the neatly trimmed trees by the boulevards that your in desert territory. There was a dirty white Mercedes in front of me, and when the owner came out he had about 7 shopping bags and a tub full of pretzels. He seemed to challenge me with his glare, as if my Ben and Jerry's creamy Vanilla posed a threat to his army of crunchy rolled dough. I quickly looked away. Then a lady walked past with a stroller and 2 kids sitting in it. I think there were 2 girls, one of them smiled at me, which made me feel a little bit better. It's always nice with a child smiles at you. She was really happy about something..sitting in her stroller singing songs.
Then it was back to the pit, and I bought a 99 cent bag of chips because I'm involuntarily fasting.
Why can't everything be free?
