Midnight Jaunt

Cautiously I glanced around the edge of the garage door. Looking to see if there was anyone around as I slipped out to my car. It was late, and I knew it was not the right time to be making a midnight run anywhere. But...I desperately, desperately needed something to eat, and the box of cereal in my cupboard was hardly the hot food that I desired.
I winced as the engine roared to life, hoping that it was only my imagination that it sounded as loud as a cannon going off.  A quick jaunt down to the local hamburger place and I would be set for the night. I would be able to sleep without the rumbling in my stomach keeping me awake.
