Thrilling morning in the neighborhood

Our meter reader just ran by.

In my experience, the meter readers slowly approach your house. The only clue that they are a meter reader and not a burglar is the gadget they carry.

But this meter reader - he had a bright orange shirt with "meter reader" across the back - and it kinda looked homemade. And he darted. And scurried. And ran. Across the street. Up to Sweet Basil. Around the corner and out of sight.

oh yeah, he read the meters. he just ran from one meter to the next, not like he was in a huge hurry but just like he was integrating his run into his work schedule.
