Flights of Fancy

I often find myself going on flights of fancy. I figure since my train of thought often derails a flight of fancy makes sense and there is no check in bag charges.

So I decided to stop this AM for a Super Big Gulp at 7-11. As I stood thee with it in my hand, I wondered if I finished a whole Super Big Gulp would it give me super powers. However, with my luck I would end up with some nonsensical super power like Super Hairgrowing or House cleaning or SHUDDER Super Data Entry! Tah Dah!

Maybe I could live with it but now I'm thinking about my Super Hero costume. I'd have to settle on a color. I love yellow but it isn't a good color for me. Red is overused... thank you spider man et al. How about a teal? It would have to be a darkish color so it wouldn't show the dirt and Dark is slimming.

Speaking of slimming there's that whole one piece spandex costume which, I;m certain doesn't come with those belly/fanny ruffles you find on big ladies' bathing suits. A ruffle would just spoil the whole Super Hero look. I could probably work around the whole lumpy spandex look ---where's Austin Scarlet when you need him--- but I KNOW what would be my downfall... the &^@^$())*^ cape.

A cape, a long piece of fabric dragging on the ground, getting caught in car door and automatic doors and wrapping itself around my head when it's windy. I'd trip on it, or tear it and at the least drop food on it, though turning it around would make a handy old lady bib. So I think I'll skip the whole super hero thing. Will I still drink the Super Big Gulp with or without power? I'm guzzling it now. Burp
