Today I got the opportunity to be in a parade - something that hasn't happened since my Girl Scout troop put their collective foot down and said, "No more parades!" I love being in parades. I love waving at people. I like making people wave back at me. To induce a return wave I look them straight in the eye, smile broadly, and give them eye contact until they wave back. This technique works 75% of the time. I was working the crowd today. I handed out leaflets and candy and I waved both arms. My feet have blisters, both arms are tired, and my face is sore from smiling but it was a good day.
