I think we've all heard that line ad nauseum. Although it wasn't a bike request, the sentiment was the same.

When I make balloons I work off of requests. Last night a 7 year old boy (who was sitting next to his teenage brother) asked for the Leaning Tower of Pisa.  I told him I could make it but it's not fun to play with and asked if he'd prefer something to have fun with. NOPE.

I made the Leaning Tower of Pisa for him. It was a caterpillar body out of Ivory 260's (5 loops), put it on a 350 green base, drew some windows. Not fancy.  I should have just used a 350 on a base and made it crooked.

While I was making it, I asked him, do you know what the Leaning Tower of Pisa is? "mmm, no."

Ugh! Whatever. He waited the time, he got what he asked for.
