Slip N Slide!!!

My black car was sitting in the sun all day. I was out in the sun most of the day. I was as overheated as my car. It was so hot my a/c (that usually works great) was struggling to cool me off. All I could think of was getting home, and heading to the pool.

As I got closer to home, I saw all my neighbors' houses with the sprinkler systems on. I stared out my window at the green grass with dew drops glistening in the sun, the fine mist was floating in the air. I could smell its cool refreshing liquid.

I was wishing I could tear off my clothes, right down to my skivvies. Then run and frolic in the sprinklers...like when I was a wee one... Then I remembered my Slip N Slide! I LOVED that thing! My grandpa extended my slide for me and put a little pool at the bottom. And, if that wasn't perfect enough, my mom added some Joy dish soap. I was in slip n slide heaven. I was having so much fun, my mom joined me. I had grass in my teeth, toes, and hair. I slept like a cool baby that night.

If I wasn't such a wuss, and worried what the neighbor's might think, I would stop at my local Toys R' Us and buy one of those babies.

Until I get the nerve up, this will have to do.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to head to Toys R' Us....
