When one is a curmudgeon and reveres the lifestyle as I do, social occasions are frequently evaded. I have gotten fairly proficient at truthful, yet diplomatic excuse making, but that is for another post.
So, I go out to the local coffee shop for a coffee and a slice of pie. It's $10 including tip. Soon they start to recognize me, I'm becoming a 'regular.' Damn. Then it dawns on me, that pie at $5 a slice is $30 for the whole damn thing!
So, my curmudgeon lifestyle leads me to isolation which leads me to consuming whole pies. Damn, it's a downward spiral.
So, who wants pie?
