Lemon furniture polish? Office chair leather? Scotch?

...I like cinnamon.

Lemon Furniture polish. . .so there was this girl. There always is, right? She had the best smile. Anyway she was rich as all hell. Security gates, servents, marble staircases the whole deal. Lots of wood around the house and they used lemon furniture polish. And her dad had this really plush leather office chair.

Scotch was the first time I got drunk. Or at least what I was given in the beginning. And it's not the drunk part that's the good memory. It's the fact that someone cared enough to get me drunk.

I think I see where you're going with the first one. Okay, clearly, I know where you're going but we just don't have to go there at all. I'm fine without going there. I'm perfectly alright...here.

That was very...caring of them.

Oh, uh. . .actually I wasn't going there with the first one. Did it seem like I was going there?

It was actually. Phobias in the feild are never fun.
