Juice Machine

Today is one of those days whereby I am not about to get the things that I want. I was thirsty today and wanted to buy the $2 orange juice from the juice machine round the Day Hospital reception area so I brought some coin with me. I counted out 2 50 cent coins, 3 20 cent coins and 1 10 cent coins. Well obviously I forgot that 3 times 20 cents plus 10 cents is only 70 cents. So I felt like an idiot standing at the machine, feeding it money and pressing the number for the orange juice but none is coming out. I looked at the credit in the machine and obvious I didn’t have enough.

So fine, I went back to my bag to get me my $5 note so I could buy something. At this point I could practically taste the orange juice pulp in my mouth. As I tried to slip my note in the slot, it didn’t work. I tried again. Same result.

I looked at the slot again, the light wasn’t blinking, so obviously it wasn’t going to accept my money.

I felt like a rightful idiot after that.

I went back to put my money back in my bag and gave up on getting orange juice. Obviously I wasn’t meant to have any today.

So I came back home, cut up half an avocado and ate that. I also ate Baskin Robbins’ peanut butter and chocolate ice cream. Straight from the tub.

It is one of those days.
