Man attempts to get a ride with me + Dinner with Oprah

I wrapped up some post office business yesterday and I went out to the lot to drive off in my RV. As I was walking along, I noticed an older gentleman get into the passenger side of my RV. I thought that was a bit odd and I approached him. “Do you need a ride somewhere?” I asked.

“Damn! I do this all the time,” he said embarrassingly and walked two cars over and got into what I think was the right car, an 80s Cadillac.

I wished him luck and secretly wished he had come along with me.

This was rather inspiring. I’d like to start getting into people’s cars while they are waiting in front of places or in parking lots. I don’t know exactly what I’d say, maybe, “It’s really crazy out there, let’s just go home” or “do mind if I get a ride with you up the street?” or maybe just silently look at them.

Have you ever done anything like this? I’m sure someone has. It could get quite dangerous depending on where you are and whom you get in the car with.

p.s. I had a really vivid dream last night that I had dinner with Oprah Winfrey and her entourage. She lived much more humbly than I thought.
