Superman Crayons

When my sister was going through some of my parents things, she found this box of crayons and thought I should have it. Back when we still lived in Akron, I got this box of crayons and a Superman coloring book. I’d had it for about a month when my Aunt Sophie happened to see it. She went on about how creative I was because my color choices were so unique. Green and orange Superman costumes for example. The real reason was a bit more prosaic I’m afraid. It was a Superman coloring book, and the blue and red crayons were pretty much gone after the first week. I just kept that fact to myself and accepted the praise.
