Metaphorically Speaking , ...A Tsunami

Yep, today was one of those days when you are standing on the beach, looking out at the beautiful tropical sky, listening to a little radio music that captures the reflected warmth of a brillant sun bouncing off the waves rhythmically rolling in. And then something tilts in the universe, you mind shifts to a new sensation , the ocean suddenly rolls away, it seems that world is expectantly holding its breath, the horizon darkens and with a sky-crashing roar, a wall of destruction rushes at you at the speed of sound. Transfixed you stand , powerless to stop it's onslaught and too numbed to move. And it hits....After the destrution, and before the turbulent seas have ceased to receed, someone shows up to work and ask's "R"., "what do you need me to do first, string cable or start hog-ringing that corner against the backstop", "oh, can you pay me today, rents due and my roommates a little short",.. " sure no problem".....sigh...
