IMing

I saw you online
I typed as fast as I could
gone, before I send

an apple a day (or 500)

first we pick apples
then we peel, cut and cook them.
canning fruit is fun!

fun with summer weather

Hot brain does not work
Finally it's much cooler
Down in the basement

haiku 1 ~ one shoe in the road

I have this curiosity about how a single show winds up in the middle of the road in the most random of places. I can't help but wonder how it came to be there. I've shared this with several friends and have asked what they thought. Funny, the theories people have when they consider the question.

One of my friends said..."Maybe it happens when two people in a car are arguing, and one of them pulls of their shoe to whap the other one with, and in the scuffle, it fell out of the window."

WHAT??? Do people really take off their shoes to hit somebody else with?

I'm still puzzled and entertained with the thoughts about how these lone shoes made it there. I wrote a haiku about it, it's one of my favorites. This is why it is ~ haiku 1

dear shoe in the road,
how the hell did you get there?
i often wonder.
