Squash Pie



Appreciating the summer months, Barry was craving a long walk to the shore and a leftover chicken plate. The pan was seasoned and he gave me a lesson in this as to how to maintain its true character. This was an expensive pan, although it wasn't thought to be on first glance, but it was something that you should remember as it had spirit that should be maintained. He encouraged the use of the remedy in a panic situation, the remedy being left on the white board as a reminder as well as being an easily accessible set of instructions in a dire situation. "Matt eat the chicken". This would be a saving grace.

The 3

Only 6 more left and then its time for a top up.

Unusual Shortcomings



A calm came over the west when the sun set and the hunters had turned in their pelts in trade for the gold. Supper was near and free loaves of bread had gone completely stale in my eyes. Credulous? Possibly. Ludicrous? Put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't have any money to participate in the stick up. Get on your knees and say your prayers, stranger. This is a stick up.

Primed And Ready

I skipped class and found Eddie near the back entrance. I bummed a smoke off him and we talked about my car and his ex-girfriend. I flicked my ash, burnt my knuckle and then felt self conscious when I realized that I had a poppy seed in my teeth after I just ripped a bare bone from the chicken carcass in the cafeteria. The lights were on at home but nobody was there plus I was pals with Eddie and that meant I could just waltz right into the attendance office and get a note before we went to the Mets game. I hated the Mets, but if it meant I could get out of school early for the afternoon, then I was their biggest fan.



Eddie and I parted ways since he was being kind of a prick anyway and I knew I had film class after lunch. I headed over across the street to the deli to get my second egg sandwich for the day and cracked smile. Rich was there with brand new hi tops on save for the pen he had used on the side of the sole. Laura had a mole. We smoked a bowl.
