It was nighttime and I was in the parking lot of Media Play in Columbus, although it was still the Children's Palace store that it was many years ago. I came out of the store and walked past a payphone... stuck my finger in the change slot and found a quarter. At another payphone just a few steps from me was the guy that played Napoleon Dynamite. As I walked towards him he got off the phone and walked to his car. Just to see, I stuck my finger in the change slot of that phone too and found $1.50 in quarters. I yelled to him that I found a bunch of quarters, and he replied "Lucky!"
Just then Stevie came walking out of the store and towards my direction. I told him how I just found a bunch of quarters in the phone, and that there was a baggie sitting next to it full of pennies and nickels, and that he should take it. He freaked out and started running away from me, saying that I was only trying to get him in trouble and that he wasn't going to take it. I grabbed the bag, since he didn't, and I noticed that it also had some tobacco in it - and it was water damaged from sitting in the rain for a while.
I took the bag with me to the parking lot and headed to my car. Amanda was sitting in the car waiting for me, and she saw that I was carrying a bag so she asked me what was in it. As I was explaining to her, I threw the bag away and hit Erica McLaughlin's car. (A girl I went to high school with many moons ago.) Erica and Tabatha picked up the bag, and in the process of fishing out the coins - they started grabbing clumps of the wet tobacco and threw them at us in my car. We were stuck in the parking lot, as there was a lot of traffic waiting to get out of the place, so the clumps kepts hitting me, hitting the car, making a mess of the area. Amanda was mad and wanted to get out and confront the other girls, but I just told her to stay in the car as I jumped all the way in and shut and locked our doors. Tabatha then went driving by in front of my car, shouting something at us. A space in the traffic finally opened up, so we were able to squeeze out and head home.
Once back at the house, it was getting light and Kelly was waiting there for a ride home. He didn't really say or do anything, other than patiently waiting and following me around. In order to get him home, I hopped on this tiny little wooden chair - about the size of my fist - and started to fly. I was still inside the house, and I was still learning how to make the chair fly properly - because every time I would start to get a little too high, the chair would become unstable and I'd have to jump off and land on the ground again. Mom and Genesee were getting annoyed that I couldn't seem to get it right, so I explained to them that I had never flown a chair that small - and that it was hard for me to get a handle on the controls when they were so tony. Eventually we made it out of the house and headed slowly down some back country road.
