i like to walk around the house before sunrise with the lights off, gliding through the darkness, awash in shadows, the illusion broken briefly on the occasional stubbed toe

I have a favorite section to use of the supermarket parking lot. I call it the Lt Colonel's Choice Club, because it always smells like the fried chicken they sell in their deli department. Best way to bookend the tragicomedy that is grocery shopping.
