peril

a while back, when i had a job job, i went down to my car to drive to work when i noticed the car parked behind me.

it was a beat-up, rusty, sedan-kinda deal with no fender. the driver's door and trunk were wide open, and no one was to be seen. curiosity peaked, yet fearing a car bomb, i slowly approached it. in the back seat was a dirty kid's seat and kid's toys. it was totally creepy. however, in the trunk were hundreds and hundreds of individually wrapped tuna fish sandwiches. TUNA FISH SANDWICHES. A trunk full of them - they were spilling out onto the street and also into the interior of the backseat of the car.

today, in the midst of our second heat wave, i decided to go for a run. there's a path alongside some train tracks that i use, because i don't like asphalt. and what do we usually come across when we are near train tracks? creepy, bizarre, and insane things, that's what.

i happened upon this picnic table in a park near the tracks, and there were 32 boxes of, this time, CREAM CHEESE strewn about. they were just sitting there, fermenting in the sun.

i was tempted to take a few and spread them on my morning bagels, but ever since i got yelled at by my brother-in-law for buying krispy kreme doughnuts from two dudes on the street, i opted to leave them behind.

but that doesn't mean i didn't fondle them.
