For this dream, in part, I blame Daylight Savings Time. I*m sure I know the fruit lady receptionist from somewhere. Beyond DST, however, I have always been called to serve on the edges of things. It*s a life theme. What better place to serve than at the mall, with the mass of humanity shopping for who knows what? And rent for $100/month? Who could resist? Of course the office was near one of the entrances, right next to a nail salon.
In my dreams I opened a therapy office
At the mall.
Only $100 rent per month.
It came complete with a receptionist
Who had always worked there.
I believe the previous professional occupant
Offered massage.
The good kind.
I know where your mind was going.
The receptionist kept bowls of fruit
In the office refrigerator.
A guy from auto sales down the way
Stopped in before I could get anything
Set up.
He took a piece of fruit,
Made an appointment
For tomorrow.
I thought
Oh this will work then.
Before that,
I had my doubts.
