I HAD NO IDEA WHO HE WAS.


But that didn't stop me from waving at him.


I was on my way from Taco Bell to Target, minding my own business really. No music was playing. I wasn't thinking of anything particular. Then, all of a sudden, opportunity reared its odd-looking head. As I drove, nearing a refrigerated truck pulling out of one of his drops, I looked at him, looked away, then quickly looked back and waved as I quickly passed. His hand almost going up out of natural response, heart racing, stomach instantly full of butterflies, he wonders what he just missed.


-Who was that? Do I know him? I must, HE WAVED AT ME. Should I have waved back?


...and the moment passes. Heart returns to normal, butterflies are on to sunny pastures, but the nagging thought remains... who was that? And before long he realizes he doesn't even care anymore and soon, the entire episode is returned to memory, likely it will never be called upon again.


But for a moment, a short instant in time, I thoroughly confused him. And it was fun.
