SUNLIGHT

“So what’ll it be pal? The usual?” I ask.

—“I dunno man. I’m not feeling very “morning fresh,” you know? Got loads on my mind and things feel like they are constantly spinning. It’s always hot or cold, and just… agitating. Sorry for the ‘wet blanket’ talk.

“Wow, dude. Sounds like you’ve been going through it. Lots cycling for you right now. But try to relax. It’ll all come out on the wash.”

I pour an old fashioned — original scent Sunlight detergent, that is — hit the start button and hear the washing machine rev up.

“Sorry buddy,” I wince.
