It's ok if this an Un-Snow day

I went to a Paranormal Get-Together event and it was awesome. It's great to meet people who share the same interest as I do..this is a nice property too. He has two Alpacas - a brown one and a white one, a Rotweiler and several cute goats hehehehe :D.

It was such a nice weather today - wildflowers from Orange California Poppies , periwinkle Lupines and Yellow mustard flowers - some taller than I am, are blooming on the side of the road.


...and in a way I think if I went to the snow today ..then what I'm about to say would not have happened...

....I just felt like fluttering my wings a little bit to day and hopefully it will send a positive tsunami someplace else..

But first, so I was in the gas station pumping as when I heard this motorcycle pull up. I had my back towards it because I was busy dealing with the gas pump. Then I turned around and saw this sweet shiny sleek Harley. I'm not a motorcyle fan but I appreciate aesthetics you know and this bike is so beautiful..shiny..chrome and ..I think leather. The driver came out of the the store and probably saw me gaping at his bike and he said ,

" Would you help me turn this thing on?"

I looked up and funny because it was already dark but he was still wearing this dark...goggles and this ...netting or helmet but I also noticed his nice teeth/ smile, nice tan, nice built and damn he's tall - yeah, ok, good looking.

"I'm sorry I don't know how to do that.." , I lamely replied
"...but you have a nice a bike though." I added

" Yeah, if I could get to turn it on." , he said.


Now I get this way around attractive men and I think I said "Awww.." and turned arond and pretended to check to see if my pump is full. Yeah, lame.


I mean, how can I help him turn it on anyway? hehehehe I should ask my friend W, he has a Harley, a Candy-Apple red one.


So he drove past my car and into the street. I sneaked a peek at him..bye cute motorcycle guy ...

Then as I was doing so, I saw this young man on the sidewalk holding a hand-written sign saying " Homeless. Will Work. Hungry. God Bless." His hair is sleeked back, clean shaven ..dirty blond - not the typical homeless guys I see in SF.

I feel so bad for him. I suddenly realized that in a way I am still blessed despite this shitty economy, I still have my job and I have a roof over my head ..I still have food on the table. This young man, I almost get this sense of , he's fallen to victim to this shitty economy. My first instinct was to give him money but thought better of it .

"...I'm not going to let him buy drugs with my money." I said to myself.

I should get him food since he said he's hungry, I thought.

So I drove across the street and bought a pastrami sandwhich and a bottle water -with what would've been my Snow money. I went back to the gas station and rolled down my window and asked him.

" Do you want a sandwhich?"

..and I think the smile on his face and his eyes were in a way rewarding. I mean, we're all connected right? And I just , at that moment, want to help out a fellow human being .. who is someone's son...brother..husband..friend.

" Oh yes. God Bless." , he said as he took the bag of sandwhich and water from my hands.

" Have a good night." , I said and drove away.


Then I was talking to God on my drive home :D, I said.

"..ok, I'm not trying to get some brownie points to heaven. I did that because, it makes me feel better..it makes me feel good , knowing that ...somehow, he wil not have to be hungry and..I want to Thank You for your blessings ..."

..and I hope he finds shelter tonight, in this freezing temperature.


So maybe if I went to The Snow today, I would not have been in that gas station ..

So, yeah - I want to flutter these wings more often. :)
