Piece of advice: I can be just as amusing when I’m not agitated.

After scouring the whole Price Chopper for a pack of plain mini-marshmallows for some hot chocolate for Noah and Emi, I finally settled for the bag of pastel-colored beauties seen here. At the check-out, the cashier was waxing rhapsodic about the pretty marshmallows. 

Me: “It’s only because you don’t have any plain white ones.”

Cashier: “Aww, you’re man enough to be comfortable eating pastel marshmallows.”

At times like this I wish I could hand out a card that would instantly convey my history so she could see what a foolish thing that is to say. But how could she ever know? How could anyone ever know…

Don’t pooh-pooh the mimosa.

Drinking La Croix sparkling water makes me feel fancy and idiotic all at once.

That also happens to be my resting state.

It’s October third. 

And it’s Wednesday.

Whatever. I’m getting cheese fries.

Is it not disturbing how we seem to be setting children up for a lifetime of cartoon cannibalism?

When it comes right down to it, I prefer a cheesy pop song to a cheesy pizza.

A good pop song lasts forever. 

And a bad one lasts even longer.

Co-worker: “Remember that day you thought you looked really good?”

Me: “No. Narrow it down.”
