4. What a marvelous cause

We all need education. Could be 20 years ago now, I was standing in line at a pharmacy. And some (add judgemental and discriminatory description) scummy looking ladies were trying to get a box of insulin type syringes. I felt haughty. I knew what they were up to.

Now, this is how good my dear friend Jeannette was. After I told her I'd seen some junkie types trying to get needles, and thought I'd get agreement, for hatin', she set me straight. She said they ought to be free. She went on to say that there ought to be a big bowl on the counter full of clean syringes st all pharmacies and the Health department.

Dayum, if she wasn't right and changed my snotty bitch attitude for ever!
