NEVER MIND, IT'S YOUR TURN TO DRIVE!

You're stuck inside on a lovely sunny day, hearing an academic droning. No, it isn't very interesting. At all. You twiddle your mechanical pencil absentmindedly, pretending to pay attention. There will be several more hours of this before you escape, by which time the fog will have rolled in, the light faded, and all the good eateries have shut their doors. The only things available will be pizza and burritos. Hardly happy snacking.
And let us forget entirely about beer.

Good food is NEVER accompanied by beer.
That is something frat boys drink.
Or people who watch sports.



Yes, you must resolve to take a day off next week. Play hooky, and go to that movie that you've been thinking about. Which is one of several that interest you.
The Grand Budapest Hotel. Warm, uplifting, and destined to become a cult classic.
Nymphomaniac: Volume II. Possibly a self-help for an in-law. Maybe even hysterically funny and depraved. Killer title. What was Volume One like?
The Lunchbox. Sad yet touching tale of an Indian widower and a housewife. Vulnerability, pathos, and subtlety. Sounds good.
Transcendence. Sci-fi, with Johnny Depp. Who is always hot and sexy, even when, especially when, he was playing Raoul Duke in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

"There's nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved, than a man in the depths of an ether binge."

You wonder what the people around you would be like whacked out.
Might prove incredibly "interesting".
Educational, too.

"Wait! We can't stop here; this is bat country!"

Yes, yes it is. Bat country. Nothing but mundane and rather pedestrian associates. As your attorney, I advise you to take a hit out of the little brown bottle in my shaving kit. You won't need much.

Say, what the heck is adrenochrome anyway?

Per Wikipedia, "several small-scale studies were done in the 50s and 60s, reporting that adrenochrome triggered psychotic reactions like thought disorder, derealization, and euphoria. It has never been scientifically accepted, however, that adrenochrome has psychedelic properties. Researchers Abram Hoffer and Humphry Osmond claimed that adrenochrome is a neurotoxic, psychotomimetic substance and may play a role in schizophrenia and other mental illnesses."
End quote.

Johnny Depp does a marvelous adrenochrome trip.

You can't help but wonder what he'd be like as the flippery amphibian criminal genius Constantine in 'Muppets Most Wanted'.
Which more than any other movie appeals to you.
You could fall in lust with a depraved frog.


Sadly, you acknowledge that there will be no zesty green evil in your life, not this evening. Maybe some other time, especially if the alternative is swilling beer and snarfing pizza with the sportsfans you know. But not at present. You hope that someday soon you will experience the delicious irresponsibility of exploiting a mysterious foreign swamp creature, and eating good food. During the day. While reclining naughtily nude.
Better not mention the salt and pepper frogs legs.
He's somewhat sensitive about that.
And far too quick.
Jumpy.


Looks like it will be warm next week.
Maybe even in the eighties.
Laziness weather.
Ribbit.

WELL, HOW DID I GET HERE?

There is an air of distraction to the streets in C'town nowadays. People seem lost in thought, absent minded, somewhat out of it. And mo...
