I found the glow sticks at the Sally Ann. The duct-taped package made me wonder if they worked but you don’t question a miracle.

“How does this work?” I asked my zumba buddy.

“You’ve never snapped a glow stick?”

“Nope. I’m a glow stick virgin.”

Turned out, my sticks were a no glow zone.

My friend, who looked like a son of mine could look if I’d ever had a son, saw my disappointment.

“Take mine. Snap two, it’s the coolest thing!”

I took the gift but I was mad with God.

Ah well. The story of my life.

-.-

(I don’t love “worked” and “work” so close to each other but I need to read try to read two books this aft, so I must move on! All suggestions welcome! This was fun!)

Love this!

Maybe "were any good" instead of "worked". I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't mentioned it though.
