Money Out of the Sky

Wednesday, August 18th 2010

It was quite a coincidence when I walked in the door and told D I hadn't done anything nice yet today (well, I've done a few nice things, but nothing to write about) and at the same time we both said "We could drop a dollar bill out the window!" I think he must have seen the dollar bill sitting on the chair at the same time I did, because how else did we have the same idea? Even if he did see it, how did we have the same idea of something we've never done before? Crazy! Sometimes he tells me he can read my mind and I'm beginning to think he can...

That made it a simple decision regardless of where the idea came from. We ran over to the window (12 stories up) and got ready to throw the dollar out. "Should we fold it?" "Should we wad it up?" "Or turn it into a paper airplane?" "Let's just fold it once and let it go!"

And that's what we did. Twice. The first one went all the way around the corner so we tried a 2nd time in hopes that we could see it land and watch someone pick it up. We waited and waited but no one noticed it.

"Sometimes you don't know who is going to be affected by what you do." D told me.

"That's very true and part of the fun sometimes." I replied. On the other hand, you can have a negative affect on people without knowing it too. We won't go into that right now though, let's keep it happy!

Peace :)
