All the stuff

(>;~;)>

Today I drove myself to ACC, gave them the last of my paperwork, and talked to an advisor. I'll register for classes in a few days and then I'll just have to buy my textbooks and like... pay and stuff. I also ate a delicious bagel, an apple, some almonds, and some veggie chips. I drank some water. I did this all on campus because I brought my lunch.

Then I went to HEB and got whatever mom had texted me about. There was a crane game in the lobby area.

I usually ignore it but there was a CAPTAIN AMERICA PLUSHIE in there.




It's not that it was a particularly good plushie, but it was still there.
And I was just like "cool, I have 50 cents of loose change right now that I happen to have not put in my little change bank at home yet." So after taking all the groceries to the car and dumping everything out of my bag to find the other quarter, I headed back in.


My aim was perfection. The claw reached down around the Cap's head... and of course it lacks opposable thumbs and the will to pick anything up, so it simply slid off again as it lifted up.

A bit of disappointment grabbed at me, but I walked out with a smile. What else had I expected? I hope they're happy with my fifty cents.

  1. I hate crane games. They always cheat. Sorry you didn't get the fat Captain America. Actually, if Captain America were real and was representing America, he'd be obese
