Thanks to a weekend of heavy rains, I found myself unable to get home the other night, as the freeway was blocked by a mudslide, and all the alternate routes were either closed due to flooding or essentially unpassable due to traffic accidents.
Dear Wednesday…
Dear Wednesday,
In the words of Eric Cartman, screw you guys—I’m going home.

So much rain! This is what it must be to live inside a car wash.

Dear Friday…
Dear Friday,
I should have known you and Thursday would be in cahoots. But pretend all you like—you’re not Tuesday…

Respite (a poem)
My take on a prompt: “You’ve lived a long and difficult life surviving in the desert. One day you fall into a deep sleep. When you awake, you find yourself in a lush forest.”
Dear Thursday…
Dear Thursday,
We now return to our regularly scheduled weather?
Love,

Dear Wednesday…
Dear Wednesday,
I have things to do today. Try to keep it down, okay?
