the keg of sorrow

so we're drivin down the road today, cuz there isn't any offroad in the downtown T-Dot. traffic was tight so we were movin slow. aaand there's this beer truck parked, with the driver deliverin kegs. i don't know WHY... but he takes out 5 kegs outta the back, puts them on the street, then takes ONE in.
...i think every canadian that saw that had the hardest battle of their LIFE, at that particular moment. i did.
"KEG!"
i said that. but there were actually four still there, so i shoulda said "LOTSA KEGS!!"
if i woulda been driving i would have HIT the guy in fronta me. i wasn't lookin at the road and i wasn't lookin at the kegs. i was lookin to see if anyone ELSE saw them. are people RUNNING?
it's like in grade school when a kid would throw like, 20 marbles and scream, "SCRAMBLE!"
... i wanted to scramble. just grab one. both arms! don't even pick it up. just hold it and yell, "MINE! I call THIS one. it's MINE. ME. MINE... NAAAAASTAY AWAY FROM MINE."
... but i'd be the only one there. the other kegs all alone.
-----------------------
i bought these gloves today. now, i'm not a glove kinda guy. and i think that guys that have those, leather gloves, probly think that i'm impressed for some reason. i don't know. just a feeling i get. anyway. i bought gloves. but since i would never buy "hey i'm cool and fancy"-gloves, i bought work gloves. cuz they are practicle. BUT... only as practicle as how smart the person is buying them. there is definately a ratio of smartness to glove practicality.
Smart : Practicle
... am i spelling practicle right?? whatever. MAN i've gotten stupid.
yeah, SO. i get these ones with the rubber on the front, but not the BACK. and when am i using them? on the coldest wetest day of the year, while cleaning out gutters full of freezing water.
...
dumb : bad choice
see? it works
my hands were wet all day. not dirty! just numb.
