I thought I was stronger than that.....

 

  I made it two entire days.   I really thought I could do it.  

I refused to google it.  I refused to ask anyone for help.

In retrospect I could have saved myself a lot of anguish.

Maybe i gained something for my perseverance.  I mean other 

than setting a higher threshold for frustration.  Who knows?

I don't even know how it started.  Maybe in a dream .. maybe

I heard something subconsciously in another's conversation,

(Although highly unlikely)  Who would have thought that a 

 simple jingle from my youth could cause so much grief?

Curious yet?   For two days I sang  "The one and only cereal

that comes in the shape of animals".  Over  and over.  While I 

cut grass.  While I worked on restoring lanterns.  While I 

packed for an upcoming trip.  You name it .. all day every day.

Tonight the pressure became too great.  I caved.  I set here tonight

looking at the picture of a box of Crispy Critters a beaten man.

At least I can sleep tonight and finally get back to my fantasy

dreams.  That is if I can keep the terrible nightmares of being lost 

or chased out of my head.  With my luck I'll dream about cereal!!!
