With little to do in the small town of Grantham, going to the Mall was on my list of extracurricular activities. I didn't need a reason to squeeze in the car of a friend on a Saturday morning. Leaving campus was reason enough. One day while window shopping, a friend (susanna) and I discovered a treasure. It was a gum-ball-like machine selling colorful plastic rings. Susanna bought one, and then I did. Mesmerized by our great discovery, we put more quarters in the machine and begged our friends for some spare change. After that day, we started collecting plastic rings every time we visited the Mall.
You two were like junkies...it was hilarious! I can't find any of mine now :(
