The Yokes on Them :: Narrative Memoir Essays

The Yokes on Them    A great man once said nothing beats green eggs and ham. That man was Sam I am. There are many things you can do with eggs: turn them green, hide them, or even throw them! It all started on a warm fall day. I woke up saying to myself, "What a lovely day to be alive!" Well†¦ not exactly, but I was feeling pretty good. I crawled out of bed and walked excitedly toward the living room. I then jumped on the couch and turned on Sports Center. I feel that every guy needs to recap on what happened in the sports world the previous day. As I watched Sports Center, the phone rings. At this point I'm not too happy because I have to get up from my daily ritual, and answer the phone. "Hello†¦," I answered. "Hey man!" Cole Davis said. "What's goin on?" I responded. I continued to talk to my good friend, Cole, on the phone. I told him that sports Center was almost over, and he should come up and we would figure out something to do. I laid back down on the couch and began to waiting for him. About 20 minutes later Cole showed up at my house with a huge smile on his face. We both sit down and start watching a little BET. All of sudden he turned to me and said, "I have an idea!" Sounding interested, I said, "What's that?" "Tonight, we'll egg the cops." I laughed hard and decided to go along with his plan. We decided that this would go down later that night, and we would call Tyler and Shaklee to see if they wanted to join us. It was now about 11 o' clock a.m., and we had about 12 hours to kill before we took out plan into action. We decided to do stuff that normal kids would do to pass the time. We played a little basketball, had an apple throwing contest and pretty much just "shot the bull." While we passed the time, we decided to call Tyler. " Hey man," I said. Tyler answers, " What's crack'n?" I responded, "Not too much. Cole D. and I were wondering if you wanted to join us on a little escapade this evening?" "Why the hell not?" Carver shouted. "Alright, meet us at City Market at 10 p.m. sharp, and tell Shaklee the same." "Peace!" Tyler said. Well 10 o' clock rolled around and we all met at City Market.
