I went to buy cigarettes today at work. this sucks because since I work at a place whose mission is to promote the health of the ears, nose and throat; I walk about 6 blocks to get them. Seriously, they're tight with the Yul Brenner Society: and yes we have that video of him before he died warning that he would die from smoking in our archives. And yes I've watched it plenty.
While walking to get those smokes, a guy yelled at me, from a block away, "yo, you got 50 cents?" I said no. as I got closer, "you got 75 cents?" I said no. as i got to the door of the CVS, "you got a dollar?" I said no again. He followed me into the store where I tried to shake him off before i got a redbull and some smokes. "Come on, help a homeless man out." I'm no rockafeller, but i just dont carry cash too often so I told him i didnt have it, flat out. "well, put it on your card." I told him, "look, let me get my smokes and drink and go."
He asked everyone else in line for a dollar, got 3, and bought some black and milds. Then he pulled his iPhone from his pocket and called, who I assume, was his girlfriend.
I'm spent.
