Golden Kansas wheat sways
Beneath this huge agitated sky
Your clouds arriving swiftly to me
Now, one of life’s cherished mysteries

It looks as if it might be a bit stormy…

Yes, I woke up to a thunderstorm yesterday, which sounded amazing, by the way. Staying in my dad’s fishing mansion always freaks me out a bit because it is such a man cave. Smells of men (many use it throughout the year for hunting and fishing), smells of the outdoors, decorated (if you can call it that) by men, and has a tin roof so the rain sounds even more violent. Eerily, sensuous now that I type that out…see how you help me sort my mind? Anyway, it was a nice visit, but the lake was super choppy so we only had a few hours of boat time.

No, a pink one. That would fetch the lady feel, for sure.

I don’t think a hunting/fishing lodge would appreciate a pink rug. Maybe animal carcass, however.

You’d have to sneak it in. Tell them I made you do it, once Mr. Dad complained.

Ooo, I used to sneak a ton past him in high school. I might be able to pull it off. What if they catch me? What will you do?
