I Missed It —
Joanna Gilman Hyde 
(Number being after all two thirds of the way to Numb.)
You’re funny. Or all the way to numb because numb is contained by number. I missed the numbers turning because I was fooling around with my journal on the cutting board.
The number we become the more we lose count. D)
You are DELIGHTFULLY funny.
Me too! We are together in our ‘missing it’.
Actually, it’s when you’re not expecting “it” and “it” happens, that’s THE BEST. Right?
Absolutely, 200% right.
