   After 2 long, boring hours, A mean lady, asking for my name, and 3 red bulls, I finally made my way to the front of the line. Then I saw him. He was wearing what appeared to be swimming trunks, and a back fox short that said "go fox yourself" and I was next in line. "Uh, Elaine?" Ken said uneasily, like he was unsure how to pronounce it. "Just call me Elly." I said in a faint voice. "Okay, uh Elly, come with me?" He asked. I nodded and followed him into his garage. "Tell me your history with being a mechanic." He started off. I told him everything. How my uncle got me into it. My college years at MMI, the time an engine blew up in my face, the time i mixed up new spokes with old ones and completely ruined the wheel frame. but i also told him of my success. How i got  signed with an arena cross rider, for a year. He looked genuinely impressed. "Well, you have quite some talent. Here's my phone number. I'll be contacting you soon. For sure." He said, in his adorable accent, leaving me with a smile and the all famous wink of his. I walked to my car, with the biggest smile one could muster up. This was quite possibly the best day of my life.
