Turning back to aim myself toward the elevators, I add ‘OK, I’ll go first and call the elevator and then…Ow!’ I yelp at the sudden bump that nearly sent me putting me sprawling onto the lushly patterned carpet.

An Ordinary Day Sam could tell it was going to be the same as every other day even before he’d reached the front door. How did he know this? A cookbook flying through the front window was all the reassurance he needed as he trudged up the driveway. It landed with a loud thud on the lawn as neighbours looked on in distress, onlookers glancing at him worried looks filled their faces.
