Normally, he wouldn't have given it a moments thought
But tonight, tonight was different
He was feeling different
Wearing a different expression on his face
The day had been different
And now he was going to do something different
This time
He was not only going to give it a moments thought
He was going to act on the thought
So he walked up to the counter
With the yellow package
Set it down
Pulled out his wallet
As the clerk rang it up
Handed over the cash
Took his change
And walked out of the store
Happy with his purchase
Of the one pound bag of M&M's
It was half empty before he got home.
