That is VERY cool! It would be even cooler if those girls find out you're an author now that they have the picture! *g*
I rode a school bus. It was a community all its own. LOL
Probably laughing at the old people in the car behind them....j/k.
I rode a bus, it took almost an hour to go 10 miles to the Christian school I went to, we crossed the same highway at least 4 times picking kids up from all over the place. I hated it, the bouncing up and down and breathing the stale air. I'd never go back to that (thank God I don't have to)
Suzanne! Calling me old. The very idea. LOL
I liked the bus. I got to talk about the Beatles with my friend Marie. LOL
Hmmm, why would teenage girls be taking pictures of random people in a car? Probably because you are such a great dresser with a fab hairstyle, they wanted to say, "Mom, why can't you be cool like her?" Either that or they have some weird myspace photo montage of brunettes...take what you want. Oh, the mind of a teenager!
Back in the 80s, my friends and I affectionately called our yellow school-mobile 'the cheese bus'. I can only imagine how many games of telephone were played as we commuted across town 8) while riding old cheesey.
Adding to your story fun, and drawing on my past experience... I'm guessing that playing telephone stops being fun sometime after 6th grade... so that group of shutterbugs girls moved on to a more high-tech game. Your picture has since been downloaded onto their 'spotted while riding the bus' file and some silly caption has been added.
The real question is... what caption did they use?
They're probably going to post you on YouTube as a crazed lunatic who escaped from the insane asylum.
I live at the very end of a long 3 mile stretch of dirt road. Several years ago I got behind a bus five or six miles from my house, where there is still pavement.
I noticed these two young girls, 15 or 16 is my guess, at teh back they keep looking at me and laughing. After this goes on through several stops suddenly one of them lifts her shirt and flashed me. Then they both turned and giggled.
The longer I followed the more they seemed to worry until eventually they got off at the last house before mine. You should have seen those girls duck and run for the house wehn they got off the bus.
Ooh wonder what caption they DID use? I bet you're right. LOL
Here's your story
On the way home from school that day Karen and I sat in the back of the bus. Mrs. Myers said I needed to bring in a picture of my mother for our next art project. Great, how am I going to do that? I really don't want anyone knowing the truth; I can't just tell her I don't have any. Just then Karen starts waving at a car following our bus. The lady driving has a nice face; she has brown just like mine. I get a brilliant idea. I smile and wave, the lady smiles back so I grab my camera and take some pictures of her. Later I tell Karen my idea. Are you crazy she asks? I'll probably never see her again, besides what harm could it do? Surely no harm could come from taking a simple picture and just pretending for a moment that it was a picture of your mom. I mean really what harm could come from that? Little did I know I would soon find out.
Jane, that is a BRILLIANT story! I love it! LOL
Thanks Colleen, I changed my sign in to Jordansmom. I use to live in Indiana, a little town called Napanee
