A couple months ago I bought a few V8's from the 99 Cents Only Store and while I was driving home I thought that, mmm they might be even more enjoyable if I made Bloody Mary's out of them. Oh and look, a liquor store is coming up!
I parked and went in and asked the clerk for a good yet cheap bottle of vodka. He laughed and said, "Well, I have this one on sale for $7.99. It's unknown and it has little fun flakes of gold in it. Hell, all that gold is probably worth $7.99 alone."
I bought it and have enjoyed a few Bloody Mary's with it over the following months.
After the Pride parade was over Edwin and I came back to my apartment to relax for a few minutes before heading to the festival and he asked if I had anything to drink. I had just enough vodka left to make two drinks and emptied the bottle, flakes and all.
I handed him a glass and cautioned him, "Don't you drink my gold flakes. I'm gonna pan them out and see if they don't supplement my funemployment check."
He laughed, "You can't get any money for that shit!"
I replied, "Bitch, I get spammed everyday damn day from Cash for Gold. I just gotta pan those flakes, throw 'em in an envelope and," I threw my hands in the air for full effect, "Ka-ching!"
