5/1/2009 - Witch Spot

My wife and I got a night out to go and see Wolverine. After the show I had a feeling that I should call Leo as we were going toward his neighborhood for drinks. I called and told him we were going downtown later and thought he may want to join us. He mentioned that he had been in the mountains for Beltane and he came back just to see his friend of his play downtown. I told him I hoped that we would hook up.

My wife and I finished our drinks and went down town. We went to her favorite Asian noodle bar and I texted Leo our location. He mentioned that he would be at a sushi place up the street. My wife and I finished dinner, walked to the car, and started the drive up to the sushi place so we could say hi.

By this time it was very late and the Friday night traffic started cruising through downtown. While crawling up the few blocks to the sushi place in the car, I realized without a shadow of a doubt that there would be a parking spot directly in front of the restaurant where Leo was. I thought this was silly because it was super busy and there is a large theatre and several restaurants there. I continued to drive up the street and when I came to the sushi restaurant, there was my "witch" spot directly where I needed it. I giggled to myself and drove on past, as we realized that our dogs had been in the house alone for several hours and we needed to go home.

In retrospect, I think I should have stopped to say hi, but regret is not in my vocabulary.
