I know, I know... I should be counting my blessings. Or in this case, BLESSING. I can't help but feel cheated, with only a single coin donated by The Universe towards my Future Pennyillionaire Fortune.
MONDAY, May 29, I ventured into the Backroads Casey's to find no interesting people ahead of me in line, with no captivating tattoos, footwear, or posture, but only this:
I prefer it when the coins present themselves right out in the open, not under a rack, tempting my shoe-toe, nor in front of a door, asking for a noggin'-knockin'.
It was a face-down 2012 penny, revving up my hopes for more to come through the week. Alas. It was false hope. Either somebody's snatching my pennies, or people are using too darn much plastic.

I prefer to think Even Steven might be winging his way to Australia. Better luck for you next week eh?
ReplyDeleteYes, there's always next week. Or the next. I don't begrudge Even Steven an extended holiday, as long as he returns.
DeleteThose pesky debit cards!
ReplyDeleteYes! Dang them! At least the Gas Station Chicken Store has a rule that the purchase must be at least $5 to use a card. I don't know if I am more upset about them cutting into my coins, or the extra time cards take compared to cash and change.
