Random giblets
1. I should have paid attention in home ec instead of staring at that chick. She was pretty hot, and boy, those hormones were a raging back in middle school. What was my point? Oh, right, I wish I knew how to sew stupid buttons. I lost some on my coat and my lucky shirt, so I tried to look online for a visual guide. So, I thread the needle and go in and out a couple of times. It lasted about half a day before it fell off somewhere in the bank. I know it's not hard, but I'm not a very smart man. Sigh, I don't know HOW I ever managed to make that pillow in Home Ec. Maybe Mom did it for me out of pity.
2. Big City Living Update - Waffle House takes CREDIT CARDS! Yes, despite my badmouthing of the fine establishment, she took pity on my poor ass. I don't know why they never started, but I tell you, it's a great/bad idea. I just imagine many times where I have been at the House very drunk and thinking, "Man, if I had more cash, I'd get two of everything!" Alas, this now is a possibility. So, all in all, its a fair tradeoff. I don't mind the non-smoking policy as now I can actually attempt to have every possible combination of the hamburger even if I'm broke. (I still don't believe they have over 70,778,880 ways.) Sadly, the jukebox still is coin/cash operated, so no 32 continuous plays of the Waffle House March.
3. Big City Living Update #2 - I swear, Atlanta's trying to kill me. First, credit cards at the Waffle House, and now, cigarette deliveries? Yes, as part of services offered at www.zifty.com, Atlanta has a company that will deliver food, DVDs and videogames, AND cigarettes to my door at a minimum charge. Unfortunately, Georgia law does not allow the delivery of alcohol, or otherwise, ATL would be the shut-in capital of the world. Now, I have not used the service as I'm close to being done with cigs (hopefully), but its gotta be rough times when one can't even drag themselves to a gas station to get a smoke. But, I noticed there are also condoms, tampons and other personal hygiene products available. Thus, this would remove the snickering Walgreens clerk who gives you the crook eye for your purchase. The thought of somebody answering the door for a condom delivery is pretty hilarious. In fact, thanks to technology, you can pay for them online, so the delivery guy won't be suspicious, and you can order, oh...say about 3 boxes of the extra small and have them delivered to your favorite friend at just the right time. I'm sure mom would love to open the door and get a delivery of Trojans right before dinner.
