Breathe Again

Today as I was walking, I was startled by a strange fluttering sensation against my shins: the wind! It felt absolutely delicious, and I realized that for months on end, my legs have been imprisoned in tights and long socks, starved for light and air. Until today. It was so warm, I had my jeans daringly rolled up a few inches, and if it weren't for the new decongestant drugs I'm on that have me mellow as a cat in warm cream, I'm sure I would have been dashing about the park, fully reveling in the wondrous bare-ankle sensations.
