Never Too Early I Guess

Ahoy!

[insert lackluster fanfare here] It’s Monday.

And it started wonderfully I should say. I climbed in my car this morning and I realized that I forgot to get gas on Friday. I ran some quick calculations and didn’t think that I could make the 32 mile journey to Georgia, land of the way-cheaper-than-Florida gas. And peaches.

To remedy this problem, I stopped by the Circle K just a few blocks from my apartment. While there I decided to treat myself to some of their fine “gourmet” coffee. After all, what better way to reward myself for forgetting to get gas. As I stroll up to the counter, I check out the girl in front me. She appears to be what we normally refer to as your “typical college aged person”.

That’s when I notice the fact that she’s got a 6-pack of beer in her hand. I glance down at my watch: 6:33 AM. Talk about an anachronism. Then I glance down at my coffee and back at her beer. I check out my coffee again and threw a look at her tasty beverage. Finally I just end up starring at my coffee.

Something is wrong with the picture.

Needless to say, I made it to work…with coffee in hand.

Speaking of beer, this man is on a journey to visits 1000 bars in a year. Yes, he hates his liver.

    Oh snap. There’s a certain pride that comes from being born and raised in Polk County, but sadly, it’s because of incidents like this….only in Polk County.

    Wow man.
    Was she buying Booty Beer?

    Glad you stuck with the coffee.

    Sadly…no. That ruled out all “grab a bootie” beer jokes. As for gas in GA, Regular is $1.90.
