By My Lonesome

09 December 2015
I tried one of those wedge sneakers the other day and my legs and feet were killing me.  I think I forgot how to walk because one foot hurt more than the other.  Really?  How many flaws in this body need correcting?

I took a break in a McDonalds.  I didn't know the Megamall branch had a McCafe. I didn't actually want to eat but I needed a reason to sit there. I got the Nutty Brazo de Mercedes and medium latte combo.  There's cream and chocolate chips in the middle instead of the typical yolk custard things so it was lighter than a typical Brazo.  When I got home my sister asked me how it was. Well, the coffee tasted like coffee, how else should it taste like?  I just don't like how much ice it had, and I typically love a lot of ice, but it looked like they were trying to make the cream float with that bed of ice.  It was like a Coke Float, which I hate by the way, because a third of the cup is just ice so you end up feeling unsatisfied with the topping and the drink itself.

When my feet stopped twitching, I resumed window shopping. It didn't take long before my legs started to cry for help.  So I found some benches in the mall but they were mostly occupied with cuddling lovebirds and grumpy looking folks.  Then I found an empty rocking chair and collapsed right into it.  I was there for ten minutes before I saw the sign.

All four rocking chairs were now occupied by relatively young people. Then an older lady started hovering in front of us.  I felt guilty.  But I feel so old!  My legs are falling apart!  I'm kinda warranted sitting here!  And I was thinking, 'Just force me out.  I can't leave on my own so if you tell me to go I will.'  But she just left, and I continued welding myself to the chair.
