A Spin on the Mat

I had been cooped up inside around the mail counter for days, so I marched straight toward the double glass doors to catch some morning air! Right before crossing the threshold, I spotted an upside-down rubber suction cup dart left on the heavy ribbed floor mat. Its bright neon tail fin was pointing straight up like a mini pylon. Instead of just walking past, I leaped, caught the soft plastic fin with one hand, and kicked off the ridged rubber with both boots. It spun me around like a carousel! I stuck the landing right on the metal transition strip, feeling completely recharged.
