at any rate i knew i was totally in line of sight of the gas station across the street. but i kinda felt like it was far enough away that what i was doing wouldn't be noticed. it wasn't until i regained my poise that i even realized there were people standing around in front of the building- exactly in the location where i swear i saw a flash go off while in the midst of my release. 🤭 did i accomplish my goal of being caught after all?
