RE: Dreams of High Drama and the Mundane

  1. Feeling trapped? What do you need to escape from? Who/what is preventing you? Are the external forces keeping you down that powerful or maybe you're not trying hard enough to outsmart them?
  2. If you'd rather have blueberry over chocolate, you have a big problem, my friend! (Just had to say it, sorry!)
    Anyway, that 'it'll do' bit sounds like you're resigned to not getting what you want, making do with whatever .... what you're given, not what you're taking!
    (A good thing you did not get the glazed stick - I have no idea what that is, but doesn't sound like something you should eat!)
    Time's up, that'll be $100. See you next time!
Sort:  

Those are reasonable rates. Just send me a bill, okay?

Hah - a "glazed stick" (otherwise known as a glazed cruller) is a long straight doughnut as opposed to a round one. By weight, it's a better deal. (I'm a cheap bastard; I checked!)

I prefer a chocolate chip muffin to a blueberry one. But the chocolate doughnuts taste kind of artificial, at least from this place. Still, calories are calories...

I'm actually not feeling trapped these days - I'm loving my job and quite like commuting to the city. But having to follow schedules, wake up, and show up on time is a huge change. That might have something to do with it!
