The exercise:

Write about: the store clerk.

Edit: looks like I've hit the limit for the unique number of labels the blog can have (2,000 in case you were wondering). Guess I'll have to get creative with the labels I already have. And maybe, if I have time, finding similar labels and gathering them under one unique label in order to free up some space. Doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference long term though.

Only took me twelve years to run into this problem...

The exercise:

On this, the 711th day in a row for this blog, it only seems appropriate to have a prompt of: the corner store.

For those of you outside of North America, 7-Eleven is our Kwik-E-Mart.

Mine:

Mister Anderson
Seemed to live
Behind the counter
Of our local corner store.

He never said hello,
Nor goodbye,
Nor much of anything
Now that I think of it.

But that didn't stop
Us kids from loving him
And spending our every penny
On his bright sugary treats.

I guess I just miss
Old Mister Anderson,
But not as much
As I miss my youth.
