I Wish I Could

I wish I could drive into a tree
.
Or follow a boat ramp into the wild and turbulent Ohio River, or maybe into the murky depths of Harsha Lake.
I probably wouldn't like drowning, though.
Too time consuming.
Too scary.

So, I'll stick with wishing I could drive into a tree.

Oh, don't worry.

I won't actually do such a thing. (Not on purpose, anyway)

I didn't do it Saturday morning, because I told Tammy we'd keep the babies for her this weekend.

I didn't do it Sunday morning, because we were keeping the babies for Tammy. (It's a little strange to keep calling Hailey a baby -- great big girl she's getting to be)

I didn't do it this morning, because I told Tammy I'd take her to the doctor on Tuesday.

I won't do it tomorrow morning, for the same reason.

After Tuesday, there will be some other reason -- probably a stupid reason to anyone else -- why I won't.

But I wish I could.
I wish I could drive into a tree.
