“a snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky,
unbidden,
and seems like a thing of wonder.”
-susan orlean
in the midst of the polar vortex
a call goes out
a friend offers to drive us all to the movies
preston- holding down the fort at the theater
sells us popcorn, beverages, and tickets
menu offers a movie combo of cocktails and popcorn
the movie was great
the company was great
felt like we were skipping school
to just have a day of fun
we forgot about the polar vortex outside
we laughed and cried
we’ll never tell who chose which beverage:
coffee, tall soda, sippy-cup ‘o wine.
choose your own adventure.
—
everyone needs someone who will call them and say,
“get dressed, we’re going on an adventure.”
