From the overpriviledged gentrifying elitist department

Yeah, that's us in Mid City, this bastion of luxury and fiefdom. We rule the land, with our Maybach 62's and Bentley Continentals. Yes, that's our Italian Greyhound that just shat on your grocery bag at the bus stop.

Once again we prove how we're out to claim the land!

How, you ask?

Fucking A Sav-A-Center opened up yesterday in Mid City!!!

A fucking grocery store!

A big giant green grocery store. Beer, bread, milk, wine, cheese, cheese, cheese, lame-sushi-you'd-only-eat-when-drunk-and-actually-do, beer, beer, beer and top shelf boozey fun. And open till ten! And I can use my ATM card!



Work sucked a buffalo's ass this week. I had a drink.

And happy motherfucking Saint Patrick's day! Go drink dammit!

Oh, what have we become that news of grocery stores opening makes us so damned giddy.

I am so happy for you. (And am hoping that means MY Sav-A-Center will look less like a scene from "the apocalypse is coming! Grab all the foodstuffs you can!" movies and more like a place where a girl can buy some freakin' organic milk and Cracklin' Oats cereal when she wants some.)

I was discussing that notion with my neighbors this weekend, how peculiar we are for making a grocery the talk of our "town". They had a big spotlight going on at night and everything. Even the kids got excited.

I hope yours has organic milk. I couldn't find it last night, but I think they sold out.
