Remains

Many people, much like myself are somewhat embarrassed by the music they listened too in high school.

On a recent trip to Utah, I pulled out my "old" cd wallet and flipped through the sheets. Very little was any good. Most of it was just country crap that I had been brainwashed into liking. Eventually I found one to listen too.

The first song started to play nicely. The second song skipped like little girls playing hop scotch. I pulled it out the player and flipped it over. It had a defined, sticky finger print on the outside edge. Doing the manly thing, I didn't get my water bottle out and clean it off. I licked the remains off the CD. One lick would not suffice, and after the second I realized what it was I was licking off. It was ice cream mix from over 3 years ago when I used to make ice cream. I was surprised how well the flavor was still present after that length of time.
