Road Trip


Bright sun at my back. Open blue skies. The Hold Steady loud through the speakers. Noticing that trooper--thanks, guy in front of me--before I hit 80. No construction, no traffic, just wide open interstate stretched out for miles. Feels like summer. Feels like freedom.

I'm clearly still asleep.

It's just past six-thirty in the freaking morning, and I'm headed back to work.
