OK, it wasn’t a witch professing kingship for me, or anything like that.
But, when the elderly woman leaned out of the Wendy’s drive through window yesterday and said “You need more dragons” it did get my attention.
At first, I didn’t think I heard her right.
“What?” I asked. I had, after all, been expecting her to ask for money for the burgers I ordered for lunch.
“It’s a nice dragon on your dashboard,” she said.
“Thank you,” I replied. I think it is too.

It is usually joined by some sort of Lego thing I put up there for the flames on its arms and Phoenix Swords like logo on its chest.

“You need more dragons,” she said. “One is not enough.”
“Well, I got this one at the Higgins museum,” I said. “I guess I could get another...”
“Don’t tell them I gave this to you,” she said.
She threw, fairly hard, a small plastic item into my car.
“Now, pay me for your lunch,” she said. “Sorry it’s not a proper dragon.”
I paid her. I got my lunch. I brought it off to my wife to rescue her car keys.

Now, I’ve got an additional item on the dashboard.
