i went to a new mall today after cutting the grass and walking bagel. the reason? i loved the north face shorts i purchased yesterday so i went looking for different colors and according to the website, there is a north face store in the peabody mall. i went and they didn’t have the teal color i wanted. the guy purchased them for me and shipped them to my crib with free 2 day shipping. not bad, if you ask me. as i’m walking out, i see the milkshake kiosk. i hop in line then grab a skrawberry banana smoothie. as i walk to my car and sit down, i notice they put a slice of skrawberry and banana on top. i take the top off to eat both slices and as i lift the skrawberry one up, there’s what looks to be a small spider fighting for his life. thinking i gotta save this mf, i grab a napkin for him to climb on to. he was quite sticky, so i tried wiping as much of the smoothie off as possible without smushing him. when i did all i thought i could, i put him in the passenger and we rode home listening to throwbacks.
it could have been tragic for the little homie, but maybe he’ll think a bug’s life isn’t so bad after all.
