How to make a few extra bucks

A quiet, peaceful Monday, which is the way Mondays should be. I spent most of my time relaxing, which is something I'm good at. I just clear my mind of all thoughts, which is easy to do because there aren’t many thoughts in my head anyway, mostly just wondering if it's time to eat or not. Then that thought will usually lead to, I wonder if I have anything to eat? And if the answer is yes, I ask myself if making something to eat is more difficult than opening a can and heating it up? And if the answer to that is also a yes, then I usually decide I'm not that hungry anyway.

I've been thinking that since I do a lot of sitting around without accomplishing anything, I thought it might be an excellent idea, seeing as how my family's house is on a fairly busy corner, I could put a lawn chair in the yard, put out a "hungry veteran will work for food" sign, lay a couple of crutches next to the chair, sit the family dog on my lap, relax all day and make a few bucks while doing so.

I think it might work after all. I am a veteran, and I'm usually hungry. The crutches would explain why I don't have a job, and my age would explain why I don't actually want one.
