After literally being pulled from my laptop in order to arrive on time for a seminar my friend Jen Groover was teaching, I jumped in a cab and headed over to the East Side.
Of course, because I have incredible luck anytime I need to go somewhere, I pick a cab driver who doesn’t realize he’s going the wrong way so he stops the meter (a common practice when they screw up) and now starts going the right way. While stopped at a stop light, the taxi “available” light was on (since it goes on when the meter is stopped) and I was busy writing down some thoughts I needed to remember to email.
My cab door opens. A certain celebrity dad who is now I think a stay at home dad realized I was sitting there despite the “available” light and said something I think was a “I’m so sorry”. He smiled, closed back the door and jumped into the empty cab in front of us.
Of course all of this happened before I could remember I had Savvy Mommy postcards in my bag and should have given him one. What are the chances�
