Donuts: The Motion Picture

Sandusky, Ohio. I’m at Markley’s, early, but the donut machine isn’t going, and there are no donuts. I’m afraid to ask about it and find out the donut machine is broken beyond all repair, retired, or gone, and make everyone there sad, myself included, just by bringing it up. What would REALLY make me sad, though, is to be able to eat donuts again and THEN find out they’re not making them anymore. It’s a weird kind of backwards, convoluted way of looking at things I have, I guess. Hey, I just thought of something! This is a great metaphor! A great metaphor, overall, for life or something. Well, maybe not for life. But for something.
