After the grad
Simone had the opportunity to dine with three young men recently, immediately following the graduation of her oldest son. The four of them were dropped off on Bayview Street in Toronto and left to their own devices. Amongst the fancy establishments located there, the final choice (once sushi was ruled out on account of Simone having eaten there for lunch) was Wild Wings.
The place was empty save for them and, miraculously enough for a slow Saturday night, the service was excellent. The boys entertained Simone with stories and she laughed so much that she nearly forgot how much her feet ached in her new shoes after having walked in them for a mile from the grad to the parking lot. Up and down stairs. Please commiserate. New heels.
Anyhow, Simone is very grateful to the boys for their good cheer and enlightening conversation. Hopefully, they drank in moderation later that night when they partied the end of undergraduate years for the 22 year old.
Nah... Moderation is for sissies. And koalas :)
