"Thanks, but I've got big plans today," Pasha replied with a huge smile. "Today is the day." "Huh? Today is what day?" asked Séamus with a confused look. "THE day, silly," answered Pasha. "I finally saved enough money to enroll in the beginner's class at the Motorcycle Safety Association. I'm headed there now, as a matter of fact." Séamus stared at his friend in disbelief. "Wait a minute," he said as he stopped in his tracks. "You actually enrolled in the motorcycle riding class? I never thought you'd do it. I thought it was just another project you act excited about and then drop in two weeks." "Don't be silly," replied Pasha.
