I opened my front door the other day to say goodbye to AJ when he was going to work. I heard a strange, but familiar song playing in the background. It was the ICE CREAM MAN, which normally brings me LOTS of joy, but on this particular day it was 20 degrees outside. Now what would the "ice cream man" be doing driving around in 20 degree weather? I mean the "ice cream man" is traditionally a summer joy...to hear the song of the "ice cream man" makes me happy because it is 80 to 90 degrees and I could use a cool down item. The last thing I want to do when it is 20 degrees outside is cooldown. Now maybe if the "hot chocolate man" or "hot tea man" was driving around I would be ok with this but not the "ice cream man". But really there is no rhyme or reason to most activities in my neighborhood so I just chalk it up to good old south philly. But then I also think to myself,"Maybe he is selling drugs?"- which would just ruin my childhood love for the ice cream man.
