i walked home from work today

i haven't done it before now
because it has been like an oven outside
but
my car was acting up yesterday
so i rode the bus today
and
it was hot
but overcast because it was threatening rain

i thought about just taking the bus home
but the no walk way has a transfer

so anyway
i ended up walking all the way
then
i sang the rocky theme
i couldn't help it

it was tougher right from work
than a stroll to the whole foods on my day off
[even though that's further, well round trip is further]

but i was surprised
i saw like three condoms on the sidewalk
these are not back streets
they are major streets
heavily travelled pretty much 24/7

what gives

anyway
it started to try to rain
big drops, but just a few
and i'm all like:
really, god
you need it to rain right now
you couldn't maybe please just wait
and it stopped
until i was almost home
and i'm all like:
ten more minutes, pretty please
i really appreciate your waiting this long, i do

when i got home
about five minutes later
it just opened up and poured

cool huh
