So while Armando had been fighting with the clerk, “Chuckles” had been picking through and examining the surplus Lean Cuisines that Armando couldn’t afford. He seemed very interested in the steak and peppers. Aside from being curious about someone else’s stuff and not seeming to mind rifling through it in front of them, he seemed on the normal end of the nut case spectrum. He was buying a single bottle of water and four or five blueberries.
I don’t really sleep.
I’ve always been a night owl type, but of late I just don’t sleep anymore. Unless I have a meeting to be involved with in the morning… in which case I’ll fall asleep exactly 2 hours prior.
Not sleeping over the years has afforded me the rare opportunity to spend more than my fair share of time shopping in 24 hour establishments. Doing so used to be restricted to 7-11 and Wal-Mart, but these days there are more and more places to do commerce at 3.00AM. Recently, I found myself at a 24 hour Giant grocery store. (For those of you not from this area, Giant is a name brand for the store, not an adjective to describe a store I visited via a beanstalk.)
Because schvin got the other one so fast:
I can wear stockings, wings, or nothing at all depending on where I live.
If you find this riddle aggitating, you might see me in your city too.
Sorry no rhyming on this one.
Once made of wood, then brass, now steel,
Upon hearing my bark, my enemies kneel.
Unlike the wolf from riddles ago,
My breath renders stone to and fro.
