So I'm standing on the street corner

...holding a bucket filled with spearmint from the boss's garden. I'm talking a BUCKET, not a dish, not a cup, a fuggin ACRE of spearmint in a BUCKET at my feet. A guy in a Toyota pick up trick pulls up to the curb and offers to buy one of my "pot plants."

LOL

The Enigma asked me..."how do you manage this?"

Location, location, location. I was just in the right place, on the right corner, with the right foliage, with the right weirdo driving by.

Boy was he disappointed when I plucked a sprig and tossed it in the truck window.

"Oh," his face fell, "mint. Yeah, I used to grow that too." As the light changed and he drove off he added "just thought you should know."

My life. Welcome to it.
