Unusual Morning · 2:58am Jul 14th, 2016

Today's morning was a little different from the other mornings I've had thus far into the summer, and I thought I might as well talk about it with someone other than my best friend.

So, I woke up at 10, with just over 8 hours of sleep under my belt. I sat up and got out of bed, walked upstairs and opened the fridge. To my disappointment, there as no Pepsi in the fridge. I checked my other fridge (because I have 2) and found none in there either. So, I went back downstairs, a little upset, but not too much.

I sat down on my bed and for about 10-20 minutes, just sat there, staring into space. I thought that this was exhaustion, and laid back down for another 30 or so minutes. After waking up, I sat down and stared into space once again. I realized it wasn't exhaustion, but that I hadn't gotten any sugary goodness in my system. So, I pulled myself together and walked off to the store.

I forgot my phone inside, so I was just walking outside. It's been a long time since I just walked outside, watched my surroundings and just enjoyed being outside. Inside life is the only life for me, after all. Some kids were playing in a park, throwing water balloons and even invited me to play. I declined because I'm no fun, though.

I made it to the store, which is a few blocks from my house, and walked into that refrigerated air. I made my way through the aisles buying bananas, pancake mix, syrup, and that Pepsi. It was funny because the pancake mix wasn't "on sale". It had a "Limited Price Reduction". I chuckled a bit at that.

I found out that my aunt's friend worked at that store. I hadn't seen her in a really long time and it was nice to catch up.

I walked back to the house and past the park again. They were telling jokes and I contributed one.

Me: Hey, kids. Why do cows have hooves instead of feet?
Kids: Why?
Me: Because they lactose!
Kids: Are you doing drugs, sir?

Yeah, I don't tell good jokes.

Well, I got home, made pancakes, eggs, and bacon for me and my sister. After taking a sip of Pepsi, I continued my day as normal.

I'm addicted to Pepsi, and I'm sad to say it. Other than that, my day has been fine. Stories are getting written like normal.

Welp, that's about all I have to say. See you when I see you!
