I left work early and went to the book store to get a book and look at butts. I purchased a book but did not see any butts worth a damn. I then proceeded to purchase a key lime pie milk shake. I have lactose issues so I was not sure what the rest of the hookie day would be like. I stopped at a nice secluded park to sit in the shade and relax.
This park has a drive through parking area covered with oak trees and a view of the river. A cool breeze always wanders through like the so many homeless people. There are already two vehicle at the park and it is 2:30 pm. One man is standing in the Sunshine with his arm around a well dressed woman. They remain close and talk quietly. Another lady drives up in a Volvo followed by a convertible Mercedes. The attractive woman gets out and walks around to the passenger side of the Mercedes and takes a seat. The standing couple are still very close, the man still has his arm around the lady. We now have two couples in a kids park at 2:30 in the afternoon. A school bus passes the park heading toward the school.
I ease the seat back and get comfortable. These quite obviously not married couples are stealing time away from work. I look around to see if there is a camera from "Cheater" watching them. It seems obvious to me that the men and at least one of the ladies are currently married. It just seems that way. I wonder how honest these relationships are and who will get hurt. Are there kids? This may be exciting to the cheating couples but not to me and I dozed off.
I woke up with mosquitoes buzzing in my perfectly round ear holes because at night, I sleep with foam ear plugs and they keep my auditory canals nice and symmetrical. My arm which I had propped under my head on while leaning on the window was completely asleep and vibrating with a combination of dullness and pain. As the focus returned to my eyes, I could see a squirrel on the hood of my car with a look of wonder as the sunshine filtered throughout the park.
Reality was back and it was time to leave. I needed to get to the bank and Wally World. Ice tea would have made the park visit way, way better. Maybe next time and there will be a next time.

You sound like your mother who fell asleep "watching" the airshow in her front yard. She didn't even make it to see the first plane fly by.
