chim-chim-cheree...

ah... the satisfaction of completing a university paper at 8:21 pm, with time to spare to catch a new episode of family guy... this is what dreams are made of...

last night, as i finish my first draft of an analytical article concerning the rolling stones and their 1969 altamont speedway concert gone awry, i decided to reward myself... first stop, future shop to pick up the new broken social scene disc... second stop, that little, wonderful wine store in loblaws that carries jackson-triggs pinto griso at a fine price...

en route home an overwhelming need for a nicotine fix came over my slightly yoga toned body... as i pulled open the door to the neighbourhood quickie mart (i'm not making that up, it's called quickie) i was welcomed with a gianormous smile on the clerk's face... he remembered me!!

"long time, no see pretty girl..."
"oh yeah... i've been clean for a bit if ya know what i mean..."

as he pulled my customary belmont king-size pack from the display, his friend proceeded to tell me that he was playing the lotto that night in hopes of winning $22 million dollars... if he wins, he tells me he'll split the dough with me...

as delightful as it was to be recognized as a regular, it was significantly deflating that it was due to my cigarette consumption...

fuck it... i'm going for a butt...
