Veggie Burgers and Star Trek

Xander was deep into a conversation with that creepy porno guy again.

“Hey…Xan?” I interrupted.

“There is no way Lord of the Rings is Superior to the original Star Trek series!” He shouted at the guy who started to argue back.

“Xander!” I shouted.

“What?!” He yelled back, looking annoyed.

“I’m going on lunch, I’m taking an hour today and there’s nothing you can say or do about it,” I said, grabbing my bag and heading out the door.

“Geez, take it easy,” he said, “Take two hours if you’re so motivated. Although, I’ll fire you if you don’t bring me back a veggie burger.”

“Deal,” I said, with a glimmer of a smile wiped across my face, “Bye Xan…bye…whoever your creepy little friend is.”

I left the store, glad to be out of the stuffy building and into some semi-decent city air. If there was such a thing. It was just good to be outside with some time to actually go somewhere good for lunch and take a little walk and possibly sneak in a few photo opportunities along the way.
