I didn’t finish the book today,
but I went along anyway.
I put on those jeans,
they were a little snug.
I gave my boy a great big hug.
Toss mum guilt aside,
walk out the door.
This time’s for me,
I don’t need it anymore.
A nice pub meal
and a glass of white
will be an absolute delight.
Add some adult conversation,
and it almost feels like I’m on vacation.
One sip.
Two sips.
Three gulps,
more.
Feeling my stress
melt to the floor.
Books are always kick ass,
when you’ve got wine in your glass.
