Close to the final

Today was a Amy's organic non-dairy burrito morning. It was also the second morning the car wouldn't start. I'm a half mark off empty so I think the gas might have something to do with it but I'm hesitant to skate to the nearest gas station to fetch a pail of gasoline. I have hopes the car might spontaneously fix itself.

People come to our bar and if little demons don't show their little selves hamstering out of the computer, they say that it feels like going to a mechanic and not seeing a problem. In instance, this occurred today. I said audibly but somewhat to myself, I've never gone to a mechanic with a problem that didn't happen. I wonder how often that really happens to people because if it really happens as often as people perceive, I'm sure there's a business to be had. Perhaps if no trouble is found, you could place a bet on whether it's going to happen again - almost like an anti-insurance ring. If it does happen again and you are able to prove it to the mechanic on a future visit, you get your money back and that much off the repair. If it doesn't happen again, you lose the money. I guess if you lose, you really lose because you lost time and effort too. But there could be some fun in win, lose, or bet again. Although, I'm sure there'd be a new line of business that could ensure your car would have the foresaid symptoms the next time you visit the mechanic. A 'fixed bet on a broken problem'.

Eh, but I should enjoy skating while it's non-foggy and non-wet. It'd save on gasoline and mile age. But, I think I need to soak my bearings in WD-40 and get another pair of wheels as my 5-wheelers have turned into 4's missing the middle wheel.

Today's mid-day snack is a fruit slushie. I love making fruit slushies as I don't really like eating fruit by itself. It has milk, organic banana, conventional orange, pineapple and organic strawberries. Why I separate them in description while I puree them might be beyond conventional sense. But, it is organic.

Which made me wonder - of course it exists.
