A Weekend In The Outdoors, As Told By Viral Nova

SCENE: Monday morning at the office. You arrive, drop your stuff at your desk and walk over to the coffee pot to grab a cup and you run into your co-worker, Viral Nova.

You: Hey Viral Nova, how was your weekend?

Viral Nova: I Had Two Days Off Work. What I Did With All That Free Time Will Seriously Blow Your Mind.

You: Cool, so you had a good weekend, then?

Viral Nova: I Explored A Trail Near The City Where We Live. What I Found Is Unforgettable.

You: Ah, so you went hiking, then. Unforgettable, huh? Wow, did you find like a dead body or something?

Viral Nova: I Walked Two Miles Down The Path Into The Woods. What I Saw On My Hike Sent Chills Down My Spine.

You: Holy shit. What did you see?

Viral Nova: The Topography Of The Region Surrounding Us Is Nothing Short Of Magical. I’m Speechless.

You: Oh yeah, definitely cool. Amazing what going outside will do to remind you how small you are. Have you ever hiked up to the top of that one peak west of town? Great views up there.

Viral Nova: I Hiked Up To The Top Of That One Peak West Of Town One Time. The View Hit Me Like A Ton Of Bricks.

You: Cool.

Viral Nova: I Took Photos Using My Point-And-Shoot Camera. When You See Them, They Will Seriously Blow Your Mind.

You: Right on —

Viral Nova: Trust Me.

You:

Viral Nova: I Still Can’t Believe The Photos Were Taken Here On Earth. They Look Like Another World.

You: Yeah, I can see my house from up there.

Viral Nova: I Viewed Them In iPhoto And Thought They Were Super Cool. Then I Saw The Last Photo … WHAT.

You: Yeah, we didn’t do much this weekend. The boys had a hockey tournament on Sunday, and on Saturday we had a garage sale.

Viral Nova: My Spouse And I Went To A Garage Sale A Few Weeks Ago Hoping To Find Some Vintage Clothes For A Costume Party. What We Found Was Deeply Haunting.

You: I bet.

Viral Nova: I Thought I’d Seen Plenty Of Interesting Leisure Suits. The One I Found At This Neighborhood Garage Sale Was Truly Breathtaking.

You: Well, I gotta go take a shit. Catch you later.

Viral Nova: It Sent Chills Down My Spine.

Viral Nova: It Was Absolutely Awesome.

Viral Nova: OMG.
