The Best is yet to come...

While a nice, lukewarm glob of grease sounds delicious and just what you need at a time like this, you decide to keep walking in the hopes that something cool happens. Not necessarily deux ex machin-y, but some kind of plot point or something.

You are on a sidewalk. Small snowflakes lazily float round about you. It's cold.
