I was walking to the supermarket last night when I saw a dazed looking dude walking down the sidewalk. He asked me if he could use my phone and I noticed he had blood on his face. I asked him if he was alright and what had happened. He had been car jacked by some thugs who had pulled a gun on him and pistol whipped him. I called 911 and while I was on the phone to them another bleeding-faced kid walks up from the other direction, his buddy, who was also somehow involved. Apparently the second guy was trying to sell the thugs a bag of weed and they jacked him, then jacked his car from the first guy who was waiting in it. I waited around for the cops who took ages to arrive, then went on my way.
It was kind of exciting, and although this armed grand theft auto happened a block from my house, it doesn't worry me too much. I'll just be careful who I try to sell pot too. Just kidding. The whole episode did, however, throw a spanner in the works of my plan to bake grugeres last night. It was too late by the time I got home. They will have to wait until tonight.
Mmmmmmm grugeres.
