There's a demonic sounding ice-cream truck outside.  It's chimes are sorely out of tune, and it's rather unsettling and ironic; that something like ice-cream, which I don't believe holds any negative connotations to anyone, is inviting me outside with dissonant sounds. ...
Did you ever notice that an ice-cream trucks music is like a Picaso for your ears?  Far away, it's music is splendid and cheerful, but the closer it comes, you hear the bellowing of the chimes, sounding more like a demon call then the announcing of a cold dessert for everyone to enjoy.

Or is that the entire point?  To lure us over with inviting, welcoming melodic tones, engaging us and then changing its demeanor by becoming dissonant because we have to exchange something of ours for something of theirs?  Money....lbs on a scale....our soul?  Ice cream truck you don't fool me!

random rant.... just procrastinating on studying for my praxis 2 test which is on friday.  It gets a little mundane when all you've been doing the past 6 months is studying for tests.  Although... I am hoping everything works out with my grad school applications.  I believe I may have found a solution that can help alleviate this hiccup in my pursuit towards teacher certification.  More to come...but later
