But for now, I had to go meet Warrington.Both girls told me again how good I looked and wished me a sincere good luck - although, if I my understandin... of Darcy's relationship with Warrington was correct, I didn't so much need luck as I needed not to screw up.******Arriving early, I found a spot fairly close to the Warm Kettle, but remained in my car to take in the world from behind my sunglasses and get into the interview mode. Being on this side of town during the day was quite different. It. Let's face it: no one WANTS to be in summer courses. I had dropped my application and letter on the dean's desk, expressing my desire for only one course during the fall semester. Though my two years toward tenure would be held in reserve until I began teaching full-time again, I somehow knew my career as a professor was over. I sighed as I pulled the Mercedes into our driveway. At least I had Friday off. A three-day weekend looked especially tantalizing.The girls were outside, waiting for me.. I hooked the catch in back and zipped thezipper. I hurriedly slipped on my watch, earrings, bracelet, rings andnecklace. I threw a few essentials into my purse, ran a brush through myhair one last time, said good bye to Steve and headed for the door.The door bell rang as I started down the stairs. I opened the door tosee Barbara standing there. She said, "Come on. We will be late." Shewas late getting here. As she drove toward the university, she told methat she had spent the week end cleaning. My friend Lisa called me and invited me to the Santa Anita race track in Arcadia they had a food tuck festival. Now...I had no idea that all the beautiful women in the LA area love the horse races. Santa Anita has an exceptionally beautiful backdrop of these huge mountains that are up close so it's breath taking. The day had patches of really dark clouds covering half the mountains so it was beyond breath taking. Maybe women love going for the view or to wear tight bone tight pants or short.
