Odd’s Record

Two weeks ago I had the strangest dream and as my alarm beckoned me awake, I saw a cat’s paw swinging slow, then faster, and faster, until it pinned a mouse. It was unsettling and the irony is that I didn’t know it then, but that was the day my outlook on life would begin it’s at first slow turning until reaching terminal velocity today when I suddenly find myself with an unbelievably different perspective. But back to THAT morning… another mercilessly cold day in a city I’d grown to despise. I could already envision my breath wafting away in frozen plumes. I grudgingly arose to the same rut I had been trudging through for years.
