SLEEPING ON THE GRASSY KNOLL, WITH THE WIND AND RAIN CONSISTENTLY, YET GENTLY, SLAPPING MY FACE. A BLACK PLASTIC BAG COVERED MY LOWER BODY, AS I HELD TIGHTLY TO THE UMBRELLA, THE SECOND ONE PURCHASED IN THREE DAYS. THE FIRST ONE COSTING $22 WITH TAX, AND THE SECOND, $13, NEITHER ONE HAD THE CAPACITY TO REMAIN CLOSED.
AS I ADJUSTED, THINKING THAT IT'S JUST MORE OF THE SABOTAGE, DUE TO MY ACCUSATIONS, ALLEGEDLY WELL FOUNDED, REGARDING HOW OUR COUNTRY HAS BEEN TURNED INTO A LAUNDROMAT FOR THE WORLD'S DIRTY LAUNDRY.
BRACING MYSELF SO I WOULDN'T GO SLIDING TO THE BOTTOM OF THE KNOLL IN ON THE MUD THAT HAD ACCUMALATED WHICH WOULD HAVE PLEASED THE GREMLINS TO NO END.
BUT I GOT THROUGH IT. AND TODAY TURNED OUT TO BE QUITE LOVELY, PUTTING BEHIND THE MEMORY OF LAST NIGHT'S ENDURANCE THAT MOTHER NATURE HAD SENT MY WAY TO TEST ME...
AND I PASSED!
