True tales of resilience

 



I'm at the library. I'm at the front desk with nothing to do, I mean, except when people need my help, which is like... all the time. Or no, maybe only 80 percent of the time? 

So we'll play a game.


I spy with my little eye a...





A man with one eye! 


Oh my, he's coming by! 

No lie. This guy I spy with one eye is nigh!

"Hi." tries the guy with one eye.

"HI!" I reply to the guy. I don't pry. I'm shy. 

I look at a fly. I look at the sky


He wants some scratch paper.


Wait, what does that have to do with anything?

Plus it doesn't even rhyme.



Sigh.


I give him some scratch paper. 

He seems happy even though he ruined my blogpost and is missing an organ.

Post a Comment

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.

I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!

One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
