I’m driving home from work. The wind is blowing but not hard. A leaf here and there blows across the road in front of me.
In the distance I see a sign flapping frantically back and forth. It almost touches the pavement it’s blowing so hard. Must be a flimsy sign to blow like that in so little wind. Back and forth. Side to side it blows. Traffic is thick; I haven’t gotten close enough to the sign to see the base. My immediate thought is, God please don’t let that thing blow loose and cause an accident.
As the sign comes into view, I bust out laughing! A unicorn is waving the sign.
Happy Halloween
