Rainy Days and Mondays Always Make Me Happy.

Today, my friend, is another beautiful New Orleans day. What use are tears in the rain?

I am sitting on the balcony of the house next door to mine. Mrs. King has an appointment uptown with a veterinarian. Mrs. King is not the patient.

Just because I am home during the afternoon, and, I am seated in a place where I have not sat in years, today’s Wall Street Journal will not read itself. I have a job to do.

I am waiting for a deliveryman because Mrs. King is expecting a package that requires a signature upon receipt. It must be really valuable.

No one knows when this valuable package will arrive but Mrs. King is expecting it today.

The stars must be aligned. I cannot see the stars because it is daytime and it is raining so I cannot even see the sky. All I can see is the view from this balcony.

There is so much to tell about today. I will tell you all about it.
