Woke up a little crabby…after that Kansas overnight adventure…the crater in the mattress…getting little sleep laying at the foot of the bed…was tired…had a little chip…on her shoulder…checked out of the hotel with the faulty keys…got billed…for the free room…was told…we misheard…that wasn’t what was said at all…Chip…got a little bit bigger… Stopped at a gas station…it was dark…windy…cold…this husband of mine sitting toasty…in the passenger seat…the pump…couldn’t read the card…tried again…and again…insert…pull…insert…pull faster…finally went and paid inside…Chip…got bigger… Stopped at Donutland…the server smiled…handed over a coffee…told this old gal the flannel she was wearing…was the cutest one…she’d ever seen…then told her…to have a great day…that coffee…warming the hands…that compliment…warming the heart…that chip…began to melt…like chocolate…in warm milk…swirling…swirling…until…it was no longer…there… That husband of mine…offered to drive…and impressively…drove the entire way…through Oklahoma…and it was…the hap-hap-happiest drive…after all… And that traveling buddy of mine…agrees…
