in line.

sweet kinder spends her free choice time playing with the doll house.

when i stop over for a visit and ask why all the people are facing one way

she tells me they are waiting in line for the one bathroom.

(if you look closely, all the way to the right,

you’ll see the one toilet with someone sitting on it,

as well as a chef serving food out of a window,

and more people and animals scattered around downstairs)

what an amazing real world scenario.

how can i not love every single day of my job?

while we wait

in nice weather

in a friendly line

to see a show

some of us chat

some of us think

some of us check messages

some of us watch

some of us worry

some of us laugh

some of us sigh

and

some of us –

juggle.

i didn’t know sheep could fly

as we waited at the gate for our plane, i was amazed by the new ‘system’ in place. i couldn’t quite get a handle on it at first, didn’t know exactly where to sit, where to line up, when, etc.

 this is how the gate agent explained it to me. ‘we’ll call you by your letter and you stand in a single file line by the pole that has your number on it that goes with your letter that we’ll call and then we’ll call you by letter and number together and and we’ll know you by that.  there are approximately 100 small strips of spaces with seats with numbers.’ being the black sheep that i am, i waited until the last possible second to get into line in my assigned number/letter place, and was met with gate agent glares. i think some of the other sheep may have been upset with me too.

People, like sheep, tend to follow a leader – occasionally in the right direction.

In order to be an immaculate member of a flock of sheep, one must above all be a sheep oneself.

The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.
