by the National Park exit for
over an hour as dozens of
sour-faced tourists in rented cars
inched by me as they turned onto
the 20 MPH highway, averting eye

I were diseased. Didn't they know
it was my birthday? As I was starting
to lose patience, a little voice inside me said,
"You're only upset because of your expectations."
That was true.
