I sat in my backyard yesterday for 2 hours.

I never do stuff like that.

Ever.

I'm always working on something. I never relax unless I'm on the computer (but that isn't really relaxing).

I smoked a joint and stared at the clouds for 2 hours.

I actually looked at the sky for 2 hours.

I was really high, enjoying the clouds.

My wife stepped outside and asked me what I was doing.

I said "looking at the clouds".

She said "What do you see"?

I said "See those small circular breaks in the clouds where the blue sky shows through"?

She said "Yes, there are quite a few of those".

I said "They are the bungholes of the sky".

She said "Jesus Christ" and went back into the house.

farthest plant is a Blue Mammoth hosta, the other one is a Paul's Glory hosta. I planted lady ferns near both hostas and that's probably the suspicious plants. This picture is two years ago and hopefully this summer all the plants will be much larger.

I can sit and watch my honey bee hives for hours.

The bees are fascinating to watch. You can watch an entrance as they come and go, or stare up into the sky as they shoot up and bomb back.

I sometimes have an adult beverage at the end of the day. They don't mind. It's a zen experience.

But... there is always one. One. One little lady at the end of days, stuck on guard duty, pissed at the world, and you are the guy in her sights.

You are that guy in high school who made fun of her clothes. That guy in college who got her drunk and told everyone he slept with her. That boss who made her sleep with him and then passed her over for a frat buddy for a prime job.

You are That guy. And she only has one day to live.

Die.die.die.sting. lol

I'm surprised that Mrs. LuckyCharms asked what you saw in the cloudy sky.


I would think that she should know better by now.
