It All Goes Back to the Bacon at Lent

Jul 13, 2004 09:06

I guess, inevitably, it all started with eating the bacon at Lent. That's my precursor to every source of mire and point of contention in my life since around the time of Easter. Most recent fake flake/Aries rising/effects of bacon consumption:

1. The bill for Mike's gift came out to almost $70 bucks. This was a little curious to me, as it didn't seem like I bought that much. In my haste to scamper out to Coral Springs, I neglect to read the handwritten receipt and question this gross abuse to my checking account.

2. Between Amiee, Jared, and myself, the bill came to $72 at Ninja Sushi. Interesting. My dinner was $14 or something, but man alive! Somehow when it came time to pay, Amiee made her money back, I was out $30 and Jared, who ate the least out of any of us paid more then he should have. It was very bizarre. Really frickin' bizarre.

3. I return home, bladder full and appetite sated. As I has just blown over $100 on food and gifts, there was no way I could go to Fat Cat's with the smart people who didn't eat at Ninja Sushi and saved their money for the drinking later. I notice a candle that didn't make it into Mike's gift and further inspect it. I thought the price tag said $12.95 at the store. Yeah, no. The candle was $21.95, thus jacking up my bill at Jezebel. It's all coming together now.

4. I do the only logical thing I can think of at midnight three beers later considering Jezebel's doesn't do returns, exchanges, or the like. I put that shit on Ebay.

It's the start of a new day and I'm already swamped, but I had to impart these most serious reprecussions from the bacon-eating debachle at Lent. In other news, I'm taking any and all submissions for my website about anything and everything and nothing at all. Skrink's MySpace profile has been updated with new pictures.

PS: I hope you had a fabulous birthday, Mike!
