Pumpkin's 5$

My school job is about 10 minutes away from the house, and I get to go in with Bee and Posey, who throws her arms up and squeals "Yay!" when we enter the parking lot.

My other job - the marketing job - is 30-45 minutes from the house, depending on which route I take. The longer route has curves that are more vertical, the shorter path's curves swing pretty wildly on the horizontal plane.

This morning, i was running a little late, so I took the shorter, twistier highway.

It snakes past farms and half-dead hamlets and bonafide "filling stations." Gar-lee.

The sky was very blue this morning, but swirls of fog settled here and there in the valleys. At one farm, horses played in the mist - looking for all the world like a Stevie Nicks video. It was pure magic.

A couple miles down the road, there was a pumpkin stand with a hand-lettered sign: Pumpkin's 5$.

I thought, "I need to write about this. I need to attend to my blog."

And now, just after 11 p.m., I have finally found a few moments to type. I don't know how other people do it. And clean their houses? And wash their hair every day?

They're machines, I tell you.
