Cosmic and Freaky
Oct. 9th, 2003 01:04 pmRichard and I took advantage of the lovely weather yesterday and biked crosstown to Minnehaha Falls. Had a little trouble along the way getting my new bike seat adjusted properly (and was still feeling a little under the weather from the cold I just got over), so we (meaning I) decided not to head downriver, but just head home. Being worn out, I insisted on leading us back home through the streets instead of retracing our path along the creek. As we cruised down 40th Street heading for the pedestrian bridge, we heard a frenzied shout from behind. Turned around and there was this big young guy with spiky hair bounding out of his yard hollering, "Richard!!" He looked like he'd seen a ghost - actually scared me for a second. He kept saying, "I just put down the phone, I swear to God I JUST put down the phone, I mean seconds ago, I just left you a message..." Turns out he's a concert promoter that has gotten light show gigs for Richard in the past, and he had indeed just left us a phone message about a possible show. Walked out the door, and there's Richard, unmistakeable with his tie-dyed Santa Claus look, riding past on his bike. Oh, wow, man!
