Due to the massive heat wave we were experiencing this summer, I was only wearing my old jean shorts and a tank top. Too damn hot to wear anything else, especially when I had some chores to do around the house. I took a hair band from my wrist, and as I pulled my hair back into a ponytail, I ruefully of that delusional senator from West Virginia. Even though I had been agnostic since high school, I made a silent prayer that his air-conditioning broke down this summer, and that his penis shriveled into the size of a peanut. I chuckled at the state of my spiritual life these days.
