Top 5 -- Things I did this week that make me feel 13

Oct. 8, 2008 4:03 pm
1. Drank a giant fountain Mountain Dew. (Although no one will ever have the perfect syrup/carbonated water ratio of the old SuperAmerica on US 69 in Belmond)
2. Ate a pack of Zingers (Frosting so sweet my teeth still hurt)
3. Seriously considered buying baseball cards (No gum is a deal breaker)
4. Stood at a magazine rack reading a "Rolling Stone" I had no plans to buy. (Back then I was just broke, now I'm just lame)
5. Walked through a mall, wondering if I looked cool. (Yes, I
do know the answer)
