Dog Days of August - Day 3

Hello? Is someone there?

For God’s sake lady, of course someone’s here. I’m standing 10 feet, right in front of you. You come much closer, and this crowbar will convince your head of what your eyes should be seeing.

Oh baby, do you feel that breeze? Daddy must have left the window open
when he left this morning for Portland. It sounded like the wind blew over
the flower vase and broke it. Let’s not go over there. Daddy can
clean it up when he gets home. Let’s go down into the basement where its
cooler. It is hot, isn’t it baby?

Something is wrong here. That lady was staring right at me, but didn’t seem to notice.

Wait, she is walking down the hall with her hand on the wall. Blind! She must be blind.

Oh my lucky stars, she’s blind! And alone, except for that baby. Just blind lady, baby and me for the whole day. Just think of the fun we can have.

Just think.
