I'm a little disappointed that I wasn't able to get in a good practice today. The Park was way to crowded. Even my back up spot wasn't devoid of any would be on lookers. So, I took my whip and headed back home. The heat from the sun burning my skin as I walked in un shaded 90 degrees weather. I was just beginning to perspire as I came upon the store on the way home. My pace quicken as I walked over to the store front, seeking a few moments refuge from the sun's unbearable heat.    Once inside, I dug in my purse for any lose dollars floating around inside. I pulled out a wrinkle 5 dollar bill and sat it down on the counter. I ordered a mixed slushy and some wraps because I didn't want to go back out in the heat just incase I didn't have any at the house. Then I power walked home. I sighed with a breath of relief as the cool air from the air conditioning kissed my hot skin. I took a large sip of my slushy and headed towards the kitchen. I still had whip practice to do but I need to cool down and relax first. I sat my bullwhip down on the ottoman as I past it. I pull my wrap out of pocket as ready to roll but I saw that my past self had already prepared one for me after I had finished my practice. Well, I guess I won't be mad at myself if I sneak a few puff in before hand. Besides the park was full and just the walk to and from was punishment enough. I think I earn this.
