The Side Effects of Endorphins

Denied

I argued my case, but I am not the first person to read Anna Karenina in WinCo.

Second Place is Not For Losers

Here was my Event Today

1. Solo grocery shop at Winco
2. Top Soil at the Garden Store
3. Target (ugh) pick up for my wife
4. Art Supply Run

I am a very efficient shopper. I know what I have to consume and I get in and out. Winco wasn’t busy so the world record was in sight. The world record for these four events is one hour and 48 minutes.

Winco on Target

I was well under my time when I get out of Winco and only started doing better at Target. I don’t know the customs and mores at Target so I expected to get held up here but that went smoothly.

Top Soil

This is where I lost it, I recently had some back issues from doing lots of manual labor, and today I felt great. So I helped a lady load her topsoil into her car, losing a precious six minutes.

Art

The art supply store went smoothly. But I can’t hurry the art supply store. My brain goes places that shouldn’t go, and I always have to remember to get my wife a caramel I think I lost another four minutes. The world record and a ticker tape parade around the city of Hazel dale would have to wait till another day.

Dream big.

The powers to be only realize after a while that you had to give the workers some time off so they can consume consume, consume.

That’s how capitalism works.
