Be prepared.
I went out on a bike ride today, as I do, to get some time outside and recapture the feeling of movement and log some cardio. It was a good one today, with a few purple flowers clinging to the stems and small gray birds with posh crests jumping through the bushes.
Afterwards, the cardio logged and the bike parked in the rental kiosk, I went to buy some tequila, because there's no sense in making two trips outside my apartment when one will do and I want to drink something that tastes like summer as winter falls in.
At the counter, the two clerks looked at me and said I was smart, that I was planning well. I didn't understand at first, thinking, were they praising me for buying one bottle, was I missing something?
Then it hit me: I was buying tequila while carrying a bike helmet.
And boy, did the three of us laugh when we were all telling the same joke.
