City Of Electric Light
Somethings are hard to change. Like every now and again when I go to a store or the like, I ask for a 'polythene' bag, instead of a 'plastic' bag. Sometimes, like last night, I get a funny right back at me. Store clerk: "That's a lot of alcohol. Big Party tonight?" Me: "No, just me." Store clerk: "hmm ok" Me: "Can I have a Polythene bag to take that?" Store clerk: "A who?" Me: "A Polythene bag". Store clerk: "Wow, sure fella, but why do you have to get all chemical on me" But then again, when I almost start to get used to calling things the 'plastic' bag way, I make a trip back to the mothership. I'm beaming there this tuesday and yes, I'm planning to go all chemical.
