On shopping at the WalMart in El Paso

I am grateful for parents who raised me so that I do not have to break the cycles of:
1. Four-year-old daughters wearing thong underwear and three-inch heels
2. Five front "teef" of silver
3. Pimento loaf

I am grateful for parents who perpetuated the cycles of:
1. Graciousness
2. One-piece bathing suits
3. Being able to count back change

I have broken the cycles of:
1. Natural peanut butter that must be stirred
2. Un-sugared cereal
3. Asking for "frijoles" when I want "pinto's 'n' cheese."

Dear Adams,
Your peanut butter scares me.

-someone who has also broken the cycle.
