RETHINK by Erin Fitzgerald

Picture
They built the new dealership four years ago. I guess that means it's not new anymore, but nothing in the showroom or the service areas is broken. The coffee machine is one of those new sons of bitches, where the part that flips down has a spike that stabs deep into the heart of a tiny plastic cup. The coffee eventually comes out the bottom.

When Eddie brought us together in the morning to say it was all over, Anthony was the one who cried. That douchebag never made goal. What was there for him to cry about? Sam went and sat in her car. Mike walked back to Service with those guys and I'm sure he busted out his flask. Mike knew things in mysterious ways. He probably had it full the night before. The news, and the flask.

Me, I went to that coffee machine. That great big German fucker that I had to plug kiddie arcade tokens into, to get my customers a cup. Maybe it tastes better. But you never hand anyone effort, a tiny piece of yourself. There's nothing to apologize for when the coffee is perfect every time. Nothing but the cars. Who wants to apologize for those and then close a sale? Not me. Not like we were closing sales this year, anyway.

So I made a magical awful cup of coffee appear by pushing a button, and I took it outside. It was beautiful, the parking lot. Our giant American flag rattled the pole, and it snapped against the fat fall clouds.

Love this! Especially that image of "where the part that flips down has a spike that stabs deep into the heart of a tiny plastic cup."

You nailed it!

Great resonance. The show goes on even if we don't have answers, even if we don't want it to, and part of what powers that is, coffee.

Well done - so much loss, but in the middle of it all a touch of beauty, of redemption and hope.

Sunglasses – Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall -? Besides being a wonderful complement to your wardrobe, sunglasses play an important function in protecting your eyes from the suns harmful rays. Protecting your eyes with sun glasses is just as important as protecting your skin. UV light consists of three bands of light to include UVA, UVB and UVC. UVA light hasn’t been proven to lead to any eye disorders but the eyes should still be protected from it. UVB is the most damaging of the three as it will burn skin and damage the eyes, possibly leading to cataracts and UVC is said to be of little worry. When purchasing sunglasses it is important to find a pair of sun glasses that has at least ninety eight percent UVA and UVB protection to ensure your eyes are getting the best protection. Never have there been so many sunglasses designs, styles and colors to choose from designer sunglasses, prescription sunglasses or sports sunglasses the choices are endless.
