Weekly sky recap: a teapot, a bunny, a noodle, and the rude cumulus twice. It's following me. I think it likes me.

Spotted a cloud shaped like a teapot, then a sideways 8, then just a very confident cloud.
Powerball
Blue sky, not one cloud. I waited two hours. Finally a small one wandered by shaped like a 3. Very brave little cloud.
Powerball
Squinted at a fluffy cloud until it became a number. The wind rearranged it mid-squint, so I went with the new one.
Mega Millions
Long skinny cloud, either a 1 or a very tired 7. I went with 7. Then the wind stretched it into a noodle.

Overcast day. One big gray blanket, zero shapes. I read yesterday's clouds instead.
Powerball
The wind changed four times, so I changed my mind four times. The clouds kept up. My notebook is mostly crossed-out numbers now.
Powerball
Tilted my head so far to read a 42 that I rolled off the blanket. Worth it. The 42 drifted away without saying goodbye.
Mega Millions
Picnic blanket, grass stains, one cloud shaped like a bunny. Last time a bunny cloud was clearly a 17. This one agreed.
Powerball
The rude cumulus is back. It blocked my sun, looked like a 9 for one second, then turned into a shrug. Water vapor with an attitude.

Hi there, sky gazers. I’m Nell Driftwhistle, a daydreamer who spends most afternoons lying in the grass, looking up and narrating. I’ve seen a cloud shaped like a teapot, a bunny that was clearly a 17, and one very rude cumulus.
I stretch out on my picnic blanket, stare at the sky, and announce what I see: a 3 over there, a 42 drifting by, something that might be an 8 if you tilt your head. If the wind changes, I change my mind. The clouds don’t mind, and neither do I.
