    A girl's guide to creepy clerksEver since that surprise incident with Captain Stabby and the improvised cash withdrawl from my person at knife-point just after Christmas (link), I've been getting my gas and coffee at a different convenience store in the mornings. Its better lit, more accessible, ev…

    Don't I know you?Ordinarily I love daft people. They're easy to manipulate, provide endless hours of personal amusement, and of course fuel my inner superiority complex. Yes in a perfect world I'd most likely be an evil overlord, ruling with absolute evil pleasure in my vast collection of evil over…

    Lord of the DriveTeenagers spending massive amounts on cars that looks like a traveling circus, or perhaps a 3-year old's doodle pad, and of course sounds like an upright vacume cleaner (or a kazoo). Its nothing recent, although in the last few years it certainly has evolved thanks to numerous medi…

    My 2¢It really doesn't matter who it was on the radio this morning, truth is I don't even remember; dancing in the parking lot in front of the office (at 4:30am) probably is not a good idea. Oh don't look at me like that, we've all done it. Unfortunatly having poor coodination along with the little…

    Hairball in my coffeeLike so many of us that get up early in the morning, that would be at 4am for me, I am hopelessly addicted to coffee. Java, frappuccino, cappuccino; a cup of joe. It magically opens my sleepy eyes and then makes me aware of my surroundings, granted some mornings I'd just as soo…

    Nipple in your coffee?After the accident Tuesday, I've not been doing a whole lot as I'm still on the mend. Fortunatly my powers of observation are still keenly around of whats going on around me. Take this morning for example. I walk into the convenience store to get something to drink and perhaps…

    Nice girls finish last...I was framed, framed I tell you! I have to assume every town has a 24hour pharmacy; quick in and out store with necessity items, limited groceries, and meds-o-plenty. Not necessarily as cheap as the grocery store, but Walgreens is convenient. Saturday night about 1am, my 3-…

    So sorry I saved your life...They say no good deed goes unpunished, and for all the pessimism that aphorism connotes; unfortunatly it has the tendancy of being correct. A few months back I stopped in a convenience store to get some gas and a small cup of cappuccino before work. The burly clerk nodd…

    The inept cashierHow many ways can one state the obvious? Its like if you threw a twinkie in 2nd grade classroom, everyone is immediatly going to notice. This morning I avoided my usual morning trip to Walmart (seeing as I was running late) and ran into the convenience store for a donut, some coffe…
