h, and don't forget to wear a coat when you go outside, don't want you catching a cold!" Laura's Aunt said."But Aunt Janice, it's a hundred degrees." Laura was cut off, "Don't back talk. If you don't have a coat, you can wear my mink coat. It's in the closet." Laura decided she didn't want to argue with her Aunt, so she went into her Aunt's bedroom. She searched around in the closet until she found the coat When she put it on it was several sizes to small, 'Why would my Aunt wear a mink cat that was too small for her? I'm larger than she is, but the coat is too small. Who was this coat made for, a dwarf?' Laura walked out on to the porch and put the coat on to the porch swing. She looked at her list and wondered where she could get a new microwave. As she went into the town, she saw her pen-pal Kayla, "Hey, Kayla," she shouted, "Do you know where to get microwaves?" her friend turned around, "Sure, go to the hardware store!" Laura for a minute, trying to remember where it was, then said thanks. As she was walking to the hardware store, she saw a computer store, and walked in, "Hello, could you tell me where your modems and memory are?" she asked the clerk, "The what?" Laura repeated, "The memory and modems!" The clerk said, "Ma'am, I don't think we sell those things here, this is a computer store, not a hospital." Laura let out an exasperated sigh, and walked out. She continued walking to the hardware store, until she came to a movie theater, 'Titanic' was playing, 'Why would they have 'Titanic' playing? It's been out on video for months now.' She kept walking to the hardware store. When she got there she bought the microwave, and asked for it to be delivered the next day. She started walking to the grocery store, but turned around nd walked back toward the hardare store to get the duck tape. By the time she got to the store, it was five o-clock. She bought some dinner, and started walking home.
