this happened.

Me: (sitting outside of my favorite lamb spot, waiting for my to-go order to be prepared)

Cool Hand Luke: (sits next to me) Hey. Mind if I sit here?

Me: No. Go ahead.

Cool Hand Luke: Your nail polish are yellow. And your earrings are gold.

Me: Yep. My favorite color is gold. And yellow improves memory.

Cool  Hand Luke: Heh. Not with me. What's your name?

Me: Goldie. What's yours?

Cool Hand Luke: Goldie! What kind of name  is that? My name is Cool Hand Luke.

Me: Cool Hand Luke? What kind of name is that?

Cool Hand Luke: What?? What's so weird about Luke?

Me: Ah. So you're called Luke.

Cool Hand Luke: What's this guy doin? (points at man standing next to a car who is rolling a cigarette)

Cigarette Guy: Where's Peoples Park?

Me: Go up Shattuck+turn left at Dwight.

Cigarette Guy: Is that the place where people were sitting in trees for a few years?

Me: No. That was near the University.

Cool Hand Luke: (saying nothing. staring at the side of my head.)

Cigarette Guy: What was that all about?

Me: They were protesting the tearing down of the trees in order for the University to extend the Sports Facility.

Cool Hand Luke: Wow. You're smart.

Cigarette Guy: Did they end up taking out the trees?

Me: I don't know. I guess I should know that. (as it turns out: they did.)

Cigarette Guy: You guys want some licorice? (produces a jumbo bag of Red Vines.)

Me: Eh. No thanks.

Cool Hand Luke: Nahhhh.

Cigarette Guy: It's hot+fresh.

Me: (thinking: mother f*ck what?!)

Waitress From My Favorite Lamb Spot: Here you go. (hands me my awesome lamb+beef doner sammich.)

Me: Thanks you so much. Hey Cigarette Guy! Are you going to People Park?

Cigarette Guy: Nah. We're going to Walmart. I'm not trying to stare at any trees.

Fin.
