A lot of kids seem shady at first, then they turn out to be fine but with this punk I had a bad feeling and I was right. The sack of sh*t had no money. Tried to pass me some phony credit card number without even having the card. Nineteen bucks out the window and with today's gas prices.
But I don't care, I'm living the dream. People will be people and none of us can pretend to be innocent without lying to ourselves. Those are the biggest lies.
Then they gave me a package to take up to Malden. Big thunderstorms were all around with hail and damaging winds; several thousand customers lost power, mostly in Gloucester, Newton and Watertown. I drove right into one of those monsters whilst on the expressway with traffic almost stopped, barely creeping along, pretty exciting.
Mostly I crept all the way there and back. Three and a half hours. Living the dream.

(I ate too much junk today but tomorrow is another day)
After six or seven o'clock or so business dropped off to nothing, prompting cabbies from all points to gather and whine about not making any money and other things as well. When we get together we're worse than a damn sewing circle.
Finally some work came up and I picked up some folks returning from Orlando, which is a real Micky Mouse town. Tampa, on the other hand, seems suddenly to have a baseball team but I digress.
They were a nice family, taking vacations and living in a nice big house. Living the American dream.
Good night you useless sacks of protoplasm.
