Ever since Kaitlyn had to write a haiku for her NYU application, I've been thinking about my life in phrases of 5/7/5 syllables.  If you know me at all, you know I'm a poet in every sense of the word: I'm amazing at acrostics, can rhyme on a dime (...), and have been known to rap occasionally (this may or may not have been caught on video a time or two).  Now, allow me to prove my haiku skillz (everyone knows you get automatic street cred if you spell that with a 'z'), with a post about my day, in haikus.  Your Mind = Blown.

Early morning:

Early morning run
Why do I torture myself?
To hear myself think


Morning:

My job makes me laugh
I will write a book someday
Ring, wrap and repeat


Afternoon:

Glastonbury mom
Your sad life is not my fault
Wrap your own damn gifts


Late Afternoon:

Lines at post office
Christmas carols on a loop
Love/hate December


Evening:

No one is home yet
Turn on all the Christmas lights
Wait and watch the door


Night:

Shop online and blog
Scour Craigslist for sane roommate
Hope the Celtics win


Late Night:

Made a wish last night
On a shooting star, from bed
It was worth a shot


Love,
Tara
