Freezerburnt

quickly removing that individual pizza for one from its box---all psyched for your night ahead--- a night alone with movies & pizza and your favorite beverage & no one else to demand anything of you--- yes, a night for you & only you--- and yet, now as you open the individual pizza box ooh what do you see? fantastic jello pizza stares back at you--- the kind of pizza that has been so freezer-burned by throwing it back into a cooler, then taking it out, and back on a truck and then taken out--- it now has been reduced to something of jello--- a jello of disgusting half-frozen slop--- what could have been the start to a great evening with yourself. and so you go for your phone--- a reflex to save your evening, be it domino’s or a local yokel trying to make a few more bucks on the delivery circuit--- what you need is for them to save the day. but if they show up, will your night alone suddenly be interrupted?
