“Kinda? Whaddya mean, kinda?
As in, she’s kinda pregnant?”
Our meeting jargon.
“Do you like hummus?”
“You mean that brown mushy stuff
That smells like poo? No.”
Wearing 2XL
Rain jacket down to my knees
Don’t need the rain pants.
Knee high in bay mud,
Sucking at my rubber boots,
Real elliptical.
Gloves and waders on,
Helping geo engineer
Collect soil samples.
Slurring words, he says:
You are the most beautiful
Construction lady.
OAC meeting
Small talk about bifocals
Used to go hunting.
Wearing designer
Jeans to stomp in the mud seems
Inappropriate
Met owner at lunch,
“I thought she would be Swedish,
Tall, and blond.” Sorry?
Shift now starts at noon
It means I have co-workers
And need sunglasses.
