Haiku Doin'?

Lapse in updating.
Will attempt to fill in gaps
Solely in haiku.

Took a trip in May.
West Palm Beach--ritzy. Open
Bar, drank way too much.

Rode catamaran
To Peanut Island. Many
homes I can't afford.

Went go karting in
Jupiter. Ran off course but
Still finished the race.

Had picture taken
With Senior Vice President.
I smiled awkwardly.

Sunburn peeling, flew
Home to Phoenix. Was very
Happy to see son.

Most of June has been
Very busy. Catch up on
Work, projects moving.

CJ is talking
in partial clauses. Learns new
Words every day.

Read Dr. Seuss's
ABCs each night for bed.
Memorized each word.

Big I, little i,
i...i...i. Icabod is
Itchy. So am I.

Took time off for Fourth
Of July. Made burgers, watched
Fireworks from backyard.

Birthday is next week.
Excitement mounts though I grow
Older--Thirty-two : )

Shall quickly forget
to mope about if Harry
Potter comes on time.

As for now, not much
Going on. Daily routine
With domestic joy.

Hope you enjoyed the
brief haiku update. If not,
It's all Everett's fault.

Yay! Yay! That's two Yay's, because I'm glad you posted, and I liked this post! I would like to hear more about the beach, if there's more to tell. I think your office haiku's were BRILLIANT. Just that you made them up in the first place.

Loved the haikus. Loved even more that you finally posted.

And, hey, happy burp-day! Have fun with your marathon Harry Potter reading spell!

big hugs!

Thanks, Jenn! The HP thing would be much better if I hadn't gotten confused with the dates--you were right, I was wrong, and I won't get my copy till next week. So I may have to go underground, no TV and no Internet to avoid the spoilers.
