Yard Saleing With the Ex
Your ex-wife convinces you to ride along with her to the big yard sale. You
wear your new pants.
The sale is down a long country road . The sale sign has an arrow pointing
down a narrow, winding lane.
The lane leads to what almost looks like a small village. You come to a T-
shaped intersection. To the left is a small, whimsical cottage nestled in a grove of old
growth timber that looks like it has been transplanted out of a fairy tale.
To the right and up the hill the lane winds in a gentle s-curve. It leads to a
60’s- modern ranch-style house with a walk-in basement.
The cottage has a small sale with nothing that you want. The sale across the
way is massive.
A thin blond invites you into the house while your ex-wife gathers. She leads
you to a room that contains a couple of old sofas, some chairs, a stool, and a
television set. She asks you to take a seat.
A large dark-haired woman is seated on the sofa across from you. She is
speaking to you. She keeps saying something about Jericho but the television Is
playing loudly, so you cannot understand much of what she says.
You move nearer and sit on the stool . You are about to relate an anecdote
about Jericho but she keeps talking.
You realize that she is giving you a lesson in visualization and telekinesis.
You visualize a man wearing a karate GI practicing blows and kicks. Then he
accomplishes the same thing without moving.
Your ex tell you that she is ready to go. She has purchased so many things
that there is no room in her car for you. She has put an old automotive battery in the
passenger seat. Even if you moved it, it may leave acid on the seat which would
damage your new pants.
You will have to hitch a ride home. You walk by the whimsical cottage. The
sale there is closed. The walk leading to the house is now protected by whimsical
pastel-colored bear traps.
