How to utterly rout the creative muse
1. Discover that the poison ivy rash has decided to break out all over your face, making you look infinitely worse than the most acne-afflicted teen you can remember for high school.
1a. ...only a few days before you're planning to tryst with a lover you get to see maybe once a year.
2. Get mail from someone who sends mail midday Monday saying where owed payment for a thing is to be sent, and it's required by the following Sunday (now, we all know that there isn't mail delivery on Sunday, so that should read "by Saturday"; and so it won't go out til Tuesday morning at earliest because the checkbook is at home in the desk drawer; and do we believe the post office will be so good as to deliver something cross-country in four days?) or else interest will start accruing each day--but who does not make any provision for anything but mailing a check. Oh, unless you want to pay extra.
2a. ...and realizing you have to spend most of your vacation in close proximity to this person.
