Reading at: https://youtu.be/diB2Sb4jki8 Broken Pictures When I woke up on my birthday, the rain was running in rivers down my window. It was was the perfect day to stay inside. Most days in sunny California, I dreamed about having a stormy afternoon to cuddle up under a blanket with my two cats and a good book in front of my electric fireplace. Unfortunately, it was too late to change my plans, though I secretly resented that the choice wasn’t up to me, especially today. The dark skies felt like a warning that I was not going to like what was coming, but I had promised my mom that I would spend my birthday with her. She had specifically asked that I teach her how to roast vegetables in the oven for dinner, which seemed like such an odd request, but I was grateful for her attempt to create a meal that I could enjoy, instead of having to pick around the plate for the pieces that I could eat. Knowing I was a vegetarian, my mom thought I must be an expert on anything having to do with vegetables, an opinion I took as a compliment.
