Friday Haiku

I thought my haiku
would be hiatus'd this week
since I am going....

....get ready for this -
WINTER CAMPING with the Scouts.
"WHAT???!!!!" I hear you shriek.

"The Bodhi Chicklet
who hates camping in July
is Winter Camping???!!!"

Oh, yes indeed-y,
it's Winter Flippin' Camping
for Riley and me;

we're going along
with another thirty-odd
Beavers, Cubs and Scouts.

If I didn't know
already that I'm crazy
as a hoot owl

I would have myself
committed to have my head
examined by staff.

I always kind of wanted to do that, but not with 30 boyscouts. Good luck, and sorry to hear about high school. It pretty much sucks for everybody, but is definitely worse for some.

I'll give you three reasons why it's better: (i) there are no mosquitoes; (ii) it's still an opportunity to bond with nature; and (iii) it's a weekend with Riley! Enjoy!!!!
