After trudging thanklessly through a month of rotten luck, (the 49ers not making the Super Bowl, no rain, and my vain attempt at trying to make out with the protruding bricks at SJSU) the universe finally tossed a little love my way in the form of fifteen dollars. There it lay upon the floor in the Starbuck's lobby like the pot of a gold at the end of a shit brown rainbow. Every cent of my find would go towards lifting my spirits and enhancing my existence.
If only we could turn that "F" into and "R."
I travelled to the nearest Safeway in hopes of purchasing the newest Thrasher Magazine, but was disappointed to find only the Skateboard Mag. I was not disappointed however, to see that Daryl had a little interview nestled in the back pages. No financial transaction occured, but things already started to look a little sunnier for me.
Tommy's is located within eye sight of Safeway, so my first $7.00 was spent on a pint of Sierra Nevada.
Total = $8.00
As the day progressed I found myself becoming weary, and thus purchased a different type of mind altering beverage that brings me joy. I decided to forgo the carton of eggs because my funds were diminishing a little too quickly.
Total = 6.65
If you begin to notice a Half Baked sort of theme to my adventure do not be surprised.
Being heart set on reading the new Thrasher I ventured into the Downtown San Jose Safeway. There I was to find only the new Transworld magazine. I went ahead and bought the damn thing.
Total = $1.20
Niko had promised me a couple beers because I fixed the toilet he had clogged (hehe Clog) earlier that day.
Total remains at $1.20
A couple bags of nuts and .99 cents later...
Total = .21 cents
We'll just have to throw the rest into the douche bag jar and wait for a rainy day.
