TIny Rocks


A while back, in honor of 7/11 day, the crew got Slurpees. Strike that, the TALENT got Slurpees, and I gotta say they didn't deserve them.

An unmentioned Talent, Fostered *wink* the idea that Slurpees were for kids. She said something like, when's the last time you had one of these...like it had been ages!

Oh, okay. You know what, just because it comes in a fancy cactus glass with cheesy fruit on top, and spiked with a little courage, don't mean it ain't a Slurpee. You can take it out of the paper cup and remove the plastic hat, but it's still just a Slurpee. An Adult Slurpee, but it's really just a straw in some frozen water mixed with sugar and some fake form of fruit. Yep, Slurpee.

They don't typically make your mouth blue but there is a joint locally where you can get a concoction called a Swirlie. That's adult. You can take the toy out of a Happy Meal, but keep your hands off a Tex Mex Swirlie. Frozen, fun, fancy glass, and some come with a tiny umbrella or plastic monkey hanging off the side.

But you're right....Slurpees are for kids. So are Trix, so stop playing them! PS if you buy a $2 kids' drink it can become adult in a flask...I mean flash. I'll take mine virgin thanks, it's this kid's recovery drink of choice. Enjoy your Recoverite old lady.
