Still Hot

Once again it is a hot and sultry day. I am dripping wet. No, no, didn't fall into a tub... that woulda been nice...

The veriest hint of a breeze tickled the mangled curtain bound by a sagging wooden clothespin. At last -

"That wind is too strong!"

You gotta be kidding me! Damn sauna cesspool. Woulda been nice in Denver. Heard it was 17 degrees in Denver. That woulda been nice...

"I can leave. I don't have to be here."

Yeah, right. I could let you go hurt yourself some more, sitting on your spine aslant on your hydraulic bed... I don't think so.

Frick.
