Out of breath, I arrived at Penny for Your
Thoughts to find the shop dark and a hanging
sign with the word CLOSED.
I wondered if Dr. Meadows was sequestered
in her back room giving another cliched reading
like she had given to my friends. Or was she
giving one like mine - dead-on?
Whatever she was telling her client, it
couldn't be more important than what I had to
tell her. I knocked until my hand hurt.
A man the size of several normal fathers
combined, with a shaved head and more tattoos
than skin, lumbered out from the store next to
Penny for Your Thoughts.
"She's closed today. Can't you read the
sign?"
"Uh... yes. It was just that sometimes she
puts the sign out when she's doing a reading."
"This is her day to stay at home."
The man could have easy squashed me like

car and given way to the large, tattooed obstacle
obstructing my goal. But Brandon's life was on

get to Dr. Meadows.
"Do you know where she lives?" I asked in
my nicest voice. "This is very important."
I'm not sure what that tattooed man deemed
important - or if he was going to demand
details. I wasn't about to admit to him that my
new love was a werewolf.
He obviously didn't think I was the type to
be hanging around a tattoo parlor and didn't
seem to want to be further bothered by my
presence. I waited outside his shop as he popped
inside - afraid the tattoo artist was going to ink
Dr. Meadows's address on my back. Instead, he
returned quietly and was kind enough to write it
down on a piece of paper.
I followed his directions closely.
I arrived at a two-story cottage home that
appeared delightfully magical. Wood-carved
sculptures lined the yard. Orbs of every color
dotted what must have been a summertime
garden. Ceramic and mosaic tiles spelled out New
Age affirmations. Artistic symbols of every religion
hung from the porch. I was met with the tune of
a thousand wind chimes clanging in the breeze. I
