I drove the 60 freeway in madness this morning with a plan to get to Long Beach by 9:15 to meet up with Suzie for a ride to the airport.
I felt so much generosity around me. The woman behind the counter gave me my boarding pass with a smile and told me to see his brother play at a local reggae bar in Chi Town and that I should hit it up. I got on the plane and immediately my guy behind me gave me a bag of cashew nuts (he proudly claimed to have made that purchase from a local fresh and easy). On the train, I asked for food recommendations and this person gave me a list and even offered to take me and my best friend to a local fried chicken joint (yes...i do have a ghetto side)
I was struggling with my luggage in sweat. It was so humid outside the Red Line Station in downtown Grand. Everything looked familiar...about a quarter mile away I saw a petite Asian man walking towards me with a smile and his new baby blue shirt. He started running flamboyantly towards me and I started running towards him ending into a long hug! It is so nice to see my best friend again :)
Of course, it didn't end there. My friend Jackie from Long Beach scored us some great seats at the white sox game (just seats away from home plate)...drinks, hotdogs, ghetto nachos...came overflowing..it was a great way to start my Monday
We ended the evening grocery shopping :) It's nice to be back :)
