I know you're hungry for words I ain't spoken...

   Late Sunday evening I packed my bag and got in my car to head to the
   company event that has been consuming my waking (and a few non-waking)
   hours for the past several weeks.
   It was a warm summer evening, in the gathering twilight that I like
   best when it is still light but the sky is beginning to gray and the
   lights of the cars and houses really seem to pop. I swung out onto the
   almost deserted highway and flipped over from radio to CD and was
   rewarded with a couple of songs from Springsteen's Born to Run album.
   The quality of light, the open road in front of me, a couple of
   anthems from my youth...it was as if a screen door slammed in my mind,
   a dress waved, and a vision danced across the porch as the radio
   played.
   I put the pedal down and off I screamed into the night.
