this morning #1434.

this morning, i rolled out of bed at a relatively reasonable hour. made a pot of coffee. had a couple cups. decided that i had enough time to take a walk around the block before i needed to buckle down & get to work. tossed on a pair of thongs & headed out. wow. what a beautiful day! blue skies for miles! golly! i gave a wave to the neighbors as they backed out of their driveway. they didn’t wave back. guess they didn’t see me. i kept on, passing houses where i used to be welcomed in with open arms. haven’t spoken to most of the owners in ages. i guess i did something wrong during my dark days. what that was, i can’t recall. all i know is that, so far, my chipper demeanor has not been enough to fix things.
