Last night I was lying down in a bed I have. It was about 3AM. I was thinking on a specific chocolate bar, this one with air bubbles it's really super and the packaging is wonderful. I think it's European—Aero might be the name. This gas station in Beverly Hills sells it for $3 and so does one in Santa Monica on 4th Street for the same price, maybe even higher if the Mozart bar there was $5. I bought the latter one time trying to curry favor with the owner cause he was present, and he was impressed. I held my smile until I sat back down in my truck cause I realized I had just paid $5 dollars for a chocolate marzipan bar the size of my jujubee when I was a baby, while smiling. The other thing is, the gas station on 4th Street in Santa Monica? Well, that station is actually on 5th Street. I just said 4th Street because it sounded better. Over there by 4th Street > Over there by 5th Street. Why are you still reading this? What else...and I know babe's favorite number is 5—I remember distinctly when she told me: I don't know, 5? But that doesn't mean I'm going to start slapping on 5 to everything. Anyway, so I laid in that one bed and went through all the various gas stations I knew in the Los Angeles area in my head. I know way more than 5 of them. And Los Angeles may actually be a commonwealth. I tried to picture to the best of my ability the chocolate layout of all the respective stores. The chocolate bar is a rare find. I hoped to enjoy the Aero for maybe $2.50 sometime this week. It's not unreasonable thinking to wonder if it's out there for me at $1.99 even. But not $5. By that time it was close to 4:05AM. The next time I opened my eyes and checked my pageview machine, it was 5:57AM. I wobbled out of bed and brought a Skinny Cow half-air bubble chocolate bar from the kitchen back to that specific bed. I ate half of it, kissed my dog got under the blanket and slept. She returned to me in the winter after I turned off my detox fan. I woke up and I was a little late for work.
