Gummaniatastic

Those of you who are following my bubble-blowing project on Facebook should be delighted to know that I ended my first bubbly month with a spectacularly bubbly purchase.

I didn’t go to the grocery store yesterday with the intention of walking out with 24 packs of gum. I really didn't. Please believe me.

This is what happened. I was walking out of the store very innocently when I came across a shopping cart full of gum priced at a reasonable 25 cents per pack. I couldn’t resist.

I dived into the shopping cart and grabbed as many packs as I could. My arms were overflowing. My mouth was salivating. I sprinted to the register and poured all the gum onto the belt.

"Gum overload," I told the cashier.

"That's okay," she replied.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Fifteen more times.

Ohhhhh yeahhhhhh babyyyyyyyyy!

Please, don't let this hefty supply discourage you from donating gum to my bubble-blowing project! ;P

I'm both proud and pleased. Let month #2 of this bubble-blowing project commence!
