the man behind the dairywip counter resembled a young-ish george carlin.
the urge to jump over and hug him was quashed by his insistence of yelling out, repeatedly, CHIPS!
As my dog sleeps, his jowls flutter.

after the first initial glance into the mirror after a five day music festival, i concluded that my skin has turned the color (thankfully not the texture) of a suede boot.
