The Porcelain Vampire

This is going to be a fun post. You're totally going to laugh at me.      In the Spring of 2010, we had our usual rainy weather. Porcelain's daughter was in school, while she was at home that day. The rain poured down as if someone left a shower on and the tub began to run over. A monsoon of rain. Then the skies finally cleared, or so she thought. To her horror, hail began pouring down just as spirited as the rain. She immediately thought, “Tornado. Must be a tornado”.      She didn't even think to check the color of the sky before calling her daughter's school asking them if they were going to release the kids early, or hold them there for parents to pick up. The woman on the other side of the phone was quiet for a moment. Finally she spoke, saying, "Ooooh. You must be new. Don't worry, tornadoes just don't happen here." Porcelain had felt so embarrassed, but decided later on that her reaction was pretty funny. If you think that's somethin

It was the Spring of 2009.      It was a particularly hot season. Porcelain and her daughter, Harmony, were about to embark on their biggest adventure ever. It felt like flinging one's self halfway across the world, even if it was only the other side of the country. There would be less sun, less heat, and a better life for her and her daughter.      The trip would prove to be uncomfortable, as they decided to travel in the middle of summer, it being the only time available for them. Traveling through the plains was the worst! It was hot and muggy, and then their bus broke down! Everyone had gone outside where the wind was blowing to cool down and wait for another bus to arrive. Not including Porcelain and Harmony because of the sunny day.      Then through the mountains they went, enjoying the higher altitude and cooler weather. Still a bit sunny but the rainy weather was so nice! Onward into the deep canyons of Utah, entering Salt Lake City. A wide-eyed, 8 year old Harmony

Hello there! Sorry, it's been a bit! I was incredibly busy last month. Life gets in the way sometimes. We are still safe at home here, on medical leave so we don't catch this Covid-19. Thought I'd check in and let you know I'll have the new blog post up soon. Angel, The Porcelain Vampire Speaks
