Life's a beach

I almost got hit by a motorcyclist on my ride out to the beaches yesterday where I had planned to sit in the shade and read my book. This close call jolted me, my heart was pumping, it really frightened me. It struck me (pun intended) that the Universe was trying to tell me something. Something like this (I think said in a very deep, authoritative voice):

"Jenny, your life is too stress-free. You are enjoying yourself way too much. I am happy you are happy, believe me, however if you are not going to get a job, then I will have to scare you from time to time just to keep you on your toes."

And then I say "Universe, I hear you loud and clear, I know I need to get a life but can it wait until the Fall?"

And then I go back to reading my book on the beach, in the shade.
