The Friend Across the Road

Second last Saturday before Christmas.
Myer Bourke St toy department.
I braved it.
Alone, groggy, and without a plan.
Before I could get up to Level 5
I heard the tantrums, frayed nerves. Madness.
Focus, I told my own nerves.
I made a commendable two rounds in search for Spiderman lego.
There was NBA lego, Star Wars lego, Orient Expedition lego.
Just none of the type I was looking for.
I walked as quickly as my pointy shoes could cope with
And ran into David Jones instead-
Chi-chi people don't have kids. Even if they did, they didn't bring them out shopping.

I rewarded myself with a g&t at Cookie.
Andy Williams crooned away
As I sucked the straw like I do with a slurpee.

Spiderman lego galore at Target in Camberwell junction, on special. That was a couple of weeks ago, and maybe they've run out, but it looked like it was on sale cause nobody wanted it.
