At Parenting I wrote about an experience I had while traveling with my ginormous suitcase, which in actuality isn’t larger than normal, and how a huge group of teenage boys ran by while I was struggling on the stairs with the suitcase and all of them, except one ran by without offering assistance.
But I suppose it is my own damn fault for packing a suitcase at all and having to use stairs? Who knows, the internet is crazy with the things that get its panties in a wad.
I’m just glad that I didn’t mention that this was also the place where Susan and I saw the pantless hooker, on the train platform. Because somehow that might have been my fault also. But it was at that point, after already navigating the stair cases twice, that we decided to drive into the city. Because after that experience, nothing is scary. Then we renavigated the two sets of staircases. All while hoping the pantless hooker and the men didn’t come after us.
Neither one of us are city girls and it was never more obvious than at that exact moment.

April 16th, 2008 at 2:57 pmhave readers been giving you a hard time? sorry. they shouldn’t. i’m sure your boys would have offered assistance, don’t you think? they seem thoughtful like that. if only everyone raised their kids to be responsible, thoughtful teenagers…or maybe they tried to. who knows.

The end.

April 17th, 2008 at 1:59 amI love those plates. Pantless hooker, huh? She’s streamlining, I guess.
April 17th, 2008 at 11:32 amI made this for dinner tonight. Thursday nights are the only night I’m in charge of dinner. I am desperately trying to get some healthy food into my 10 yr. old. She liked it. So did my gourmet cook husband. Thanks for the recipe. It’s a keeper.
April 18th, 2008 at 2:14 amI made this last night and my husband told me over and over how good it was, called it a “homerun” and I even got a thumbs up. Then he asked me if I bought the sauce. HA! Thats a real testament to my cooking. Thanks!
