Well, here we go again with one of those random events that have me absolutely floored. TRUE STORY!!!! This afternoon I was taking my dog out to tend to his business, you know, "dog things." As I mentioned in my "Duck Murderer" blog, I live in one of the loft communities downtown. When I take my dog out, I go downstairs, out the gate, then I cross the street. Today, as I was walking down the stairs I see this woman walking out the gate, talking on her cell phone. I am about 20 feet behind her as I am walking down the stairs. All of a sudden I see this cute little girl (couldn't have been more than 4 or 5 years old) run past me. She walks up and presses the button to open the gate. As she pushes the gate open, I can see she is trying to catch up with the woman I assume was her mother. I step out the gate about 5 steps behind her to see her dart between 2 parked cars and out into the street. I FREAKED~!!!! "SWEEEETIE" I screamed since I was tall enough to see the work van rapidly approaching the intersection. She turned back and came back to me in one quick turn as the van came to a screeching halt. Keep in mind, the woman is still on her cell phone getting into her car, on the other side of the street. I took the little girls hand and walked her across the street. This scared the hell out of me.. What I found even more frightening was the way this woman behaved... She reached her hand out for her little girls hand asthough I was expected to escort this little girl across the street. She didn't thank me or anything.. I  believe she was oblivious to what had just taken place only a few feet away from her..At no time did this woman take the phone away from her ear. Today I am calling myself a hero~!...   WOW~!!!! Must have been soooome important phone call....
