Monday

but I also wanted to explain to you that this tree was close to the concrete curb.

Every time I stepped over that curb, I would look at that concrete longingly, and think "You know, I bet that tastes pretty damn good. I'm going to have to try eating that sometime".

I couldn't resist after awhile, and I eventually took a bite.

Unfortunately, it wore down my front teeth, and now every time I smiled at someone today, they would look at my teeth and call me "nubby".
