  Inspired by Kottke, the nation over

Today, I have to go the dry cleaners. I have to pick up a pair of black pants that I got some toothpaste on by accident. It's not a major stain and I don't think it will be a problem to get out. But it sure would looked stupid for me to continue wearing them with a small white smear just left of the crotch. They are black after all. I will pick up the pants today. I like my dry cleaner because he is 49 cents cheaper than the one at the grocery store. Hopefully, I will wear the pants again tomorrow. Maybe with my black button-up shirt.

(Jason Kottke is the muse, and this is his work, god bless. Others similarly inspired: Jim Treacher, A Small Victory, Rob Byrnes, [updated] Jeff Jarvis, Chris O'Donnell, Overtaken. Mr. Kottke, we are in your debt.)
