Two nice looking college age boys knocked and immediately started their pitch. One even said he lived in the neighborhood; the street is several blocks up the hill from me - Dorilee Lane, Encino.
I asked for identification, they showed it and began their pitch about where the magazines would go and what they would get as their part of the subscription, which was points for college somehow. I never did get that part but they were fast talking and very polite.
We talked of several things, all subjects were immaterial to their pitch, to make me feel at ease. They even offered to come do chores around the garden to make up for me spending so much money, which I was hesitant to do, saying I thought my husband would disapprove. I should have listened to my inner self.
I told them the chores would not be necessary. I should have taken them up on it to see if they ever showed up.
That's it except that I am a damned fool!!
