Sunglasses

Sunglasses We parked around the corner from the ink shop I wore sunglasses, they are no good for seeing details didn´t see the shop. I walked and walked till I could not walk more no shop, I had to walk back whence I came. Mild panic set in, am I so old I need a label so people people can take me home? I rang my wife, “I sit in the car near the ink shop and can see you sitting on the shop´s wall. Then I remembered. “What took you so long,” she asked? I witnessed a collision between a horse and a mule, the horse broke a leg and a police officer had to put it down. -----long pause. “you got lost!” With all the contempt I could muster I stayed silent.
