If you asked me yesterday where I’d be today, I would have given the wrong answer. I wouldn’t have lied to you, I just didn’t know at the time that the universe had plans for me other than the ones I made. I expected to be reunited with Mr. Karen after a week apart, but instead I woke up alone in a city, state, and time zone combination that, while not unfamiliar to me, was not at all what I intended to be dealing with. I would probably be appreciating this unexpected adventure a bit more if I weren’t still sick, but I’m doing okay. Earlier, I had a picnic for one in a parking ramp with a view and now the sock monkeys and I are hanging out in a business center until we can try once again to get where we were going in the first place.
