continues to suck.
I got Swine Flu, lost my car, lost the man of my heart, and now I am losing my local grocery store.
First as Cala and then as DeLano's, there has been a grocery store within three blocks of my house for the last twenty years. Open 24 hours. Carries the elixir of life, Canada Dry Diet Ginger Ale. I can stop in on foot and get what I need after work, or after the gym, or whenever.
Now it will be closing in a week or two. No one is saying anything about another grocery business taking it over. Which leaves the closest supermarket about a mile away. And me carless.
All I need now is for my local gym to close*. Damn Obama!
PS. And six months later, that's exactly what happened. Life, since 2010, has basically sucked.

That truly sucks. I'd be really depressed if my Trader Joe's went away. Of course, they don't carry the elixir of life, so they wouldn't be a good replacement for you in that space. I thought you had found a car. Have you considered a Montague bike?
ReplyDeleteIn a previous post, didn't you also mention getting a paper cut, and a parking ticket that left you longing for a hamburger?
ReplyDeletePlease do not be too fretful about the store. I regularly take a 20 minute trek -- about a mile -- to a nearby grocery for many things, and it's not even the closest one.
ReplyDeleteTangentially...did you know that our Sacred Paleolithic Ancestors would walk about 20 miles a day on their huntings and gatherings? Some interesting perspective.
