Well, until she moved in the middle of my teens my first date, Mary Ann Patricklin. She lived just down the street from where I am. I told you guys lots of stories about her back in the day. She had rat problems. She lived in the co-ops. If you know what co-ops are, they're like sort of like Section 8. You have to register to get in. She had a big family. Her mom kept pumping out kids. She was one of them. She was blind. I think she was the only one in her family that was disabled. And she had pets galore. She was – her family were cats and dog lovers. They had other animals too, snakes and hamsters, maybe even rats, but hamsters for sure because I remember the one day the hamster bit a stranger in the house and Mary Ann just freaked out. She was pissed off. She wanted to kill that hamster. But the rest of her family won her over. She was outvoted. And then the funniest thing was her bigger sister later saying, I'm not going to kill the rat. No, S-T-F-U. Except she said all of it. So yeah, she was a classic character. I don't know if later she got high and got into drugs or anything. She was in the hip-hop. She was in the top radio. Well aspects of all of it. I think she liked a lot of things. She had a very good wide and was willing to broaden her horizons. I think later she got into jazz and country and other stuff too. So there you go, yeah, until she moved out of the hood. My first love I guess. And we are still cool. Although she burnt the turkey that one year, but we are still cool. I say that right, just like how I would have said when we were kids. I would have said you are cool, but you broke my brother's skateboard or just something like that. There was always something I could pick on her for. Now it's just more what she does at some of our outings with Debbie and the rest of them, all neighborhood friends. Okay, back to you Kevin. Thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.
