First of all I would like to apologize for this blog taking 2 weeks to come back to life, i had a cold and my brain was not functioning to its full creative potential. All better now and ready to be clever (ps it wasn't the swine flu more like a cow cold) Anywaz back to the point of this here blog...
It all started about a year ago, My bestie (you remember this term from a couple of blogs back) was visiting and she was training for a marathon, so in support of something i personally could never do i told my bestie that I'd jog in central park with her. While out on this jog we were coming around a corner when all of a sudden out of no where Kevin Bacon (Footloose, Bacon Brothers, Picture Perfect a personal fav of mine) jumped right out in front of us. He scared the besjesus out of us and then continued on his way across the park. I mean what kind of world is it when you can be attacked in central park by a Kevin Bacon like that with out any warning? I mean REALLY? (thank-you SNL weekend update) Well we took it in stride and for the next couple of months it was all about waiting for Kevin's next attempt to catch us off guard.
Fast forward to about a month ago (present day) I was walking up 5th ave with my trusty Barack (the black lab not the other guy) and who do i see coming straight for me? No not Oprah...Kevin Bacon, Again just out of no where, I didn't have any cash on me so he just walked on by looking for his next victim perhaps. I was walking down that street first he just had no right, and then all of a sudden he was gone. Well I decided I'm not going to be a victim of the Kevin Bacons of the world next time I would be ready...if there was a next time, maybe he'd had enough of me?
Let's go to Friday May 1st 2009 also known as MayDay! I had a short schedule and a hurt foot but Napoleon was waiting for me to arrive downtown. I boarded the B train at the 59th St Subway after switching from the 1 train. I only take the B so i can then transfer to the F or V trains, Naps is quite a ways away from the Upper West Side of Manhattan (sorry for the sidetrack) back to the point. Someone decided to pull the emergency brake and we stalled at the 7th Ave Station, I thought I might wait the stall out as I was in no hurry. While I waited that man found me again! Kevin Bacon boarded my train, but this time I was ready and if you see this man beware he may follow you around New York City and you better be extra careful, because he just doesn't understand some of us (mainly me) just don't like BACON. (I haven't touched the stuff since i was 10)
I don't like bacon either :)
ReplyDeleteIs that the same outfit he wore when he attacked us in the park?! It's always a hat, jacket, and backpack. So inconspicuous! Ha!!!
