I was chauffering Grandmama around from state to state.
She was picky about her diet, so finding refreshment at gas stations was dificult.
I stopped by a gas station, and it turned out that Holly from my old job worked there. I was getting a drink off of the shelf, and she called out to me and said
"Adam?"
"Yes?"
"Don't take this the wrong way...but..."
"But?"
"Has anyone ever told you that you were magic?"
And my stomach sank because in the dream, I guess I was sick of being so magic to all these women while all the time feeling like anti-magic to myself.
"Actually, yes. I know what you mean. Thank you."
And then she smiled and rang me up. I guess her day was made.
But peep THIS.
I left the store, and as I did, in comes Grandmama who has decided that she wants a coke for her diet. Whatever. So I go back in, and the lights are all off, and Holly has turned into Timi, who has already gone to the back of the store to do whatever it is that clerks do when the store is closed. Out she comes, and I startle her, and she gets a little annoyed/
"What are you DOING here?"
And I'm thinking: just a second ago, I was freakin MAGIC...LOL
"I need a coke for my grandmother."
Mind you the lights are still out. So I pantomime my way over to the drinks, pull a coke from the refrigerated shelf, and take it over to the counter. She had previouslyt given me 4 quarters in change, so I hand over three quarters to pay for the can, and she gives me two dimes or a dime and a nickel back, and I kind of stand there, not realizing what went down because I expected the soda to cost more.
So then I thank her, and we're off again. Back the the golden minivan to travel more staTES.
In other news, I had decided of my own accord to go back to school and I needed to find an apartment. It seems like the school must have been off of 95, because visiting it (on foot, mind you) reminded me of driving to and from philly. Anyhow, I hadn't found a place, but I definitely found an area. It was "off of routes 1 and 37"
and it was a combination of Mount Vernon, and Frigate Bay. And Bird Rock. (Bird Rock Be The Ish, Yiggun)
And everyone wanted me to move out in a good way, and so everyone was anxious for me to find a good place to live so that my parents, mom in part., would be willing to let me leave.
tout.
