Choco-hyper!!!
…Well, not so much anymore. But today was filled with sugary delights. And by that, I mean JCPenney chocolate bars. Little ones with coupons on them. There were plenty of left over bars, especially after we closed tonight.
That’s all I’ve eaten today, other than the granola/banana/stuff that I had for breakfast (with the understanding that “breakfast” is a relative term when used by me). Oh, and that cupcake for the person’s birthday it was today, but who didn’t show up due to being sick.
But, in consuming enough sugar to send a reasonably healthy person into a diabetic coma, I have discovered two things:
1 – Being hyper erases inhibitions. Maybe not all of them, but enough of them for me to swing my arms a little wildly and take larger steps along the sidewalk. In my right (or perhaps my left?) mind, I’d not do such things for fear of being thought of as weird/fruity.
But you know what? I don’t really care! Not right now, anyways. People can think I’m a nutcase or a fruitcake, and that’s okay. Because I’m not; I’ve just got a bit of zing in my blood-stream right now.
So I get to have fun with walking. You can get a really different perspective of the world by taking absurd/silly steps. And we all need a change every now and then.
2 – Having free chocolate is great. But not just for its consuption value. No, the true boon of free chocolate is being able to offer it to random people on the street. If they accept, you’ve just possibly made someone’s day. And if they don’t, then you get to eat it! That way, they won’t think you’re handing out poisoned candy, or something creepy like that.
It was fun offering people chocolate, made even better by discovery #1. I think the bus driver appreciated it. And there was one guy in the appartment parking lots who, although not wanting the chocolate, thanked me and wished me a good evening.
Also, since the chocolate is free, I don’t have to worry about what it costs to give it out.
Not looking forward to all the stuff that needs to get put away and straightened up tomorrow, but that’s for then. Right now, I’m remembering the good stuff.
…One of these days, I’m going to write a video game oriented post. It will be a step towards accepting that side of me publicly, I think.
