We just wanted a few Red Merlins

Last night Morgan, Katie, Shannon and I went to the SVA open studios for sculpture and wanted to get Mr. Softee afterward so we walked up several blocks to the place where it’s normally parked around 22nd street.  We realized it wasn’t there so we kept walking.  We got to about 26th street and in the distance we saw a Mr. Softee truck.  We walked excitedly toward it and when we reached the corner, happy and hungry for a Red Merlin, the truck skidded away and barreled away from us down the street.  We stood there in shock with our arms at our sides and watched it drive out of sight.
