I walked the cooling tarmac and enjoyed the scent of the sage and the sounds of the animals moving in the night, night was here, spreading it's comforting blanket, the moon basking me in it's cheerful rays.
It was no accident where I was, I came with a great hunger and a longing to fill it, time and patience leading me to this spot and at this hour. Duffel bag over my shoulder I walked the shoulder of the road, my hand outward, my thumb in the air in one of the oldest traditions. Instinct told me the first vehicle that slowed wasn't the one I had chosen and I waved the occupants onward, the pair of young girls insiding giving me dirty looks as they questioned my sexuality, then accelerated away with tires complaining.
"Indeed one of the luckiest turndowns of your lives." I chuckled as they sped away with the radio rattling away to Enya's voice.
Time passed and I continued my walk, enjoying the quiet and the feel of the breeze against my face, even the feel of the road under my stolen shoes, my ride would arrive shortly and then the evening would become quite interesting.
