Eye Exam

* * * * *
A friend and I are chatting on the phone.
I am on my cell.
I step outside
to check on the dogs.
I say something to the effect that
I think it's time for an eye exam
as I can usually spot them immediately, but
it appears to be dark all the way at the back of the lot.

She said "it's 8:10 p.m.....
It's not your eyes.
It's getting darker earlier".

"No-o-o-o" (I whine) - "not yetttttttt".

Sigh.
I don't need new glasses.
The dogs were in the darkest part of the yard
at the end of dusk.
At 8 flippin 10 p.m.

How about a few more cool clotheslines?
