I’m packing up and heading home tomorrow. I’m excited and feel like I should leave right now. I cannot wait to see my family. These past few weeks have been very difficult. I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday and he said that the last two years of my life have been Job-like. Shirley’s cancer, Katrina, losing my job, having two knee surgeries…yep it’s not been too fun.
But today! I called Jason, a guy who graciously let me borrow his bike while I’ve been in Nashville, and told him I was bringing his bike back. As I went outside to get it I pondered whether or not to ask him if I could take his picture and put it on my website. My camera was in the van (I drove it back here this time so I could take all my stuff back) so I passed. I looked around the corner where the bike was locked up and it was gone. I ran to the office at Scarritt Bennett and asked if anyone had seen it. John said that he had seen it just yesterday. I couldn’t believe it. I then had to walk down the block to see Jason. I was so afraid that he would think I was lying to him. He was really shocked and upset. We went inside his place of employment and exchanged addresses. I told him that I would make it right. I still feel really horrible.
I borrowed the bike because I couldn’t find one at a garage sale that was cheap enough. Oh well. Do me a favor folks. I know I have a lot of readers out there. I get over 100 hits a day. Please send a note of appreciation to Jason at my howie [dot] luvzus [at] gmail [dot] com address. I will forward them to him. He’s such a nice guy. He did a very good thing. I’ll still make it right with him, but I want to cheer him up if I can. It was a really nice bike.
