So a friend of mine was telling me about a difficult time he was going through. He said he had found a $20 Walmart gift card and was able to go buy some milk and cereal for his kids. I’ve been there. That sucks. So I went to Walmart and purchased a $100 gift card. I drove by his house a couple of times waiting for some of his neighbors to go inside. It was dark but the streetlights made it easy to see my black truck. So I finally decided to park a couple of houses down and sneek up to the front door. I left the card in a plastic sack and hung it on the door handle. I rang the doorbell and made a sprint back to the truck… the sound of my was like a marching band drum. One of my sandles seemed to get stuck to the pavement and I had to go back and get it. (No one gets left behind you know.) It felt like it took me 5 minutes to get back to my getaway vehicle. It wasn’t until I sat down that I noticed there were at least 10 people standing around in their driveways. I laughed all the way home and almost peed myself it was so funny.

btw… I’m 6’3”, 220lb. I shouldn’t even walk in flip-flops, let alone run. It’s just a good thing no one had a video camera.
