Like Running Into An Endangered Species


So...I had myself quite a morning in my opinion.

Something happened that I see as rare and unlikely as running into a Siberian Tiger or a White Tailed Fish Eagle on the streets of L.A. or NYC...

The event...I got to use a bathroom in a 7-11! For any of you who frequent 7-11, you know they treat their bathrooms like the holy grail or something.

Not only did I get to use the bathroom, but they extended this privilege to me without a request. There is even a sink right behind the counter, but they let me into the back! Oooooooooooooooh!

Now, the explanation. Basically, I have been going to this one 7-11 (Venice&Motor) at least once or twice a day, everyday for about 2 years. I go there SO much that despite my dirty, sketchy appearance, the people there know me and are nice, but god knows why!?

On this fine Monday morning, the asshole that is me, had finished concocting his large coffee (which takes about 5 minutes with all the shit I put in) and was paroosing the gum aisle. I decided to hold the cup from the top at which point, the top popped off and split all over my shirt, all over my pants, and all over the floor. Felt like such an asshole.

It was then that they swept in like super heroes, pulling me away from the mess and directing me to the back bathroom so I could clean up. They didn't even charge for the gum/coffee/snack bar and I had ruined.

I think they just felt bad I was such an idiot, but who knows. My advice for the day...go to the same 7-11 everyday for at least 2 years if you ever wish to be granted access to ark!
