I was in the supermarket with all of my groceries in the basket. I was considering getting a snack as well so I wandered up and down the aisles until I got to the breakfast cereal section. I ended up choosing a box of cereal that had Oreo bits and dried strawberries. It wasn’t until I was paying at the checkout counter that I realized I had made a mistake. The total due was a little over $110.

The airport was walking distance from my brother’s place. However, I was afraid that I would miss my flight anyways because I hadn’t stepped out of the door until an hour before departure.

I was walking around the neighborhood with a shopping dolly when I passed by someone’s garden. I walked up to the metal gate and touched the round doorknob. It felt loose so I pushed it in and the alarm went off. Through the windows I could see the residents waking up in a panic, talking loudly about how the alarm never went off. I quickly slid away from the scene, but I was afraid I had already caught the attention of the person watering the flowers.

People were having sex on the bed next to me while I was trying to sleep. I’m not sure if I had even fallen asleep before I was dragged out of bed to look at the TV. It was the announcement for a new Smash Bros DLC: matching skins for the Mario brothers and a new moveset for Luigi. His down special now made him get into a kart that could shoot red and green shells.
