Every once in awhile one experiences something so fucking strange and yet so pedestrian (in this case, literally) that it takes one's breath away.

I was walking home and stopped in on the new liquor store on my block to poke around. The prices were outrageous so I walked out. Stepped out the door, turned right, took two steps and felt something crunch under my right foot.

I had assumed it was a beer bottle or a discarded pint of the off-brand, standing as I was between a liquor store and an Irish Pub, so I was surprised when I looked down and discovered that I was standing in a puddle of honey and glass. Walking home, one foot sticking to the sidewalk in a way entirely different from the way it does with the more usual environmental hazards, gum or whatnot, I felt like I was experiencing something new for the first time in ages. It was warm, somehow. Now I just need to figure out how to make that random warmth happen at will.
