We like to make poegles out of common phrases- especially those that describe ‘moments in time’ that we all share.  A collage of such moments can create an interesting, imagined account.  Like this….

It Was A Long Drive Home

It was a long drive home on the windy dark highway. Oh, the sky was sunny and brilliant, but all that was, like everything else in life, on the other side of my windshield. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had just encountered a member of the next wave of female guitarists. We stopped in Mojave to grab dinner and share stories. Forger was due to fly an F-16 in the morning at 7:00 am, so he decided to part ways with us there. Then we had to stop at the warehouse so Mom could check for emails. It’s been just like that for 57 years now. When I got home, my roommate greeted me with a hug. “I’m sorry,” she said. She already knew. It was back to work the next day, but the call of the mountain remained. I changed my Match.com profile to reflect that I was taken.
