on my way home from the gym, i stopped at a bodega for a pack of cigarettes.
'american spirits lights' i asked the guy at the counter.
i reached for my money and realized i only had a five and a ten. since i have not purchased cigs in over a year, i honestly have no idea how much they cost these days. he watched as i pondered over this.
'how much' i finally asked, feeling like an utter fool.
'7.5o' he replied, and then he looked at me curiously. 'do you even smoke' he laughed.
'i guess i do now' i smiled.
yes, i realize that purchasing the cigarettes makes me an even bigger fool, but that's a whole other story.

I'm going to try this once again... its kinda funny that you got called out by a bodega guy!!! did you feel like you needed to light one up and smoke it infront of him just to prove your cred?
You should have lit one up, taken a deep drag, and blown a smoke ring in his face. That would have shown him.
Oh man, please tell me that it was awful and that you'd never share with me even if I was drunk and begging.
I've been craving a smoke so bad lately...
Kristen-I'm going to assume he was flirting with me and leave it at that ;)
Roopa-I think it would have shocked him even more if I could blow smoke rings out of my hoo-ha, but I didn't go there...
Todd-It was awful. And I can't stop. Stay away from me at the next Blogger Happy Hour, I might just try to convert you back.. ;)
