Life is a Circus

It had been a long few days. There was still no power anywhere in town. I got up and decided to go for a walk, knowing there was nothing better to do. As soon as I exited The Meridian, I noticed the crowd surrounding the fountain and a circus ringleader standing in the middle speaking loudly. I attempt to look over shoulders to see the animals.As a few minutes pass, the crowd starts to disperse. I walk closer to the fountain and notice a very interesting creature. The first word that came to my mind was a dinosaur. As I approach it, it turns its head and looks at me. The next thing I remember happening, is it starting to peck at me, so I take off running.

And so it goes

The day started with the annoying buzzing of my alarm clock. I was so tired but I knew if I played the dangerous game of me closing my eyes for 5 more minutes, I would be late for work. I pulled the covers off me and goose bumps immediately covered my body. I looked over and saw my window was open. Not thinking much of it, I went over and closed it. My hands were soaked from the dew on the window and from all the storms from the previous day. I grab my dress and shimmy myself into it. I looked at myself in my mirror. Right when I look at my face and head, I notice a huge, bulging bump on my forehead. My jaw drops as I remember what happened last night.
