IN: So I would always try my best to embarrass Luis by getting that girl counselor to come over and talk to him some . Usually this resulted in Luis doing an escape to the bathroom , the kid did n't always move fast , but his " escapes " were always at record speed . All week me and Luis called each other , amigo or hombre or muchacho .
Why did Luis escape to the bathroom ?

OUT: He did not want to be embarrassed

IN: Yesterday I led a bunch of young Girl Scouts ( mostly Brownies and Daisies ) in our little neighborhood parade . It was cloudy , and cool enough that I was marching in a long - sleeved shirt without too much discomfort ( Clouds and showers are standard July 4 weather in Seattle , in case you were wondering . Real summer usually starts July 5 . ) , so I was missing the usual " Put sunscreen on , you silly person ! "
What were they celebrating ?

OUT: American Independence Day

IN: Somehow I do n't miss it very much and I worry and ponder why . Perhaps I am too skilled , for my own good , in choosing to forget things . Or maybe forgetting is an easy task .
what may happen if I do not forget things ?

OUT:
I would n't worry and ponder of things I think I might have forgotten
