    Sampling the Local Cuisine

    I am currently staring down at a styrofoam box, the kind that you get at grocery stores in the Chinese line. My mom stopped by a local synagogue (the local synagogue? I'm not sure) to pick up dinner for tonight. There entire thing smells faintly of pickle; naturally, that was the first thing I ate. It looked the most like food of anything in the box. In the upper left hand corner is a packet of sour cream and Smucker's Concord Grape Jelly, and I'm not entirely sure what to use the sour cream for. Maybe it's for the potato patties wrapped in the aluminum foil. There is also something that looks like the unholy child of butter and scrambled eggs, as well as some pale tuna salad. A roll used to sit next to two cherry-type deserts; that didn't stand a chance after I got done with the pickle. A small plastic salad-dressing container of applesauce completes the ensemble.

    Working on the potato patties (they taste kind of like hash browns without the ketchup). Have not attempted to touch the yellow chunky stuff. Or the tuna salad. The applesauce is probably going to have to take one for the team later on.

    ...

    So that was your random food update for the day! Now I have to get back to work. I'll probably end up staying up until four again like I did last night. Oh well.

  • AP Gov Has Crushed My Soul

    To explain: I suck at writing essays. Really, truly, and profoundly suck. It may be because I can't produce the BS filler that usually compromises about half of any given essay; any time I try that particular method, I'll end up staring at the screen and praying that the teacher thinks redundancies are, at the very least, acceptable.

    Also, focus. I couldn't focus the point of an essay if a grand piano were suspended above my head, waiting to drop at the slightest hint of a spread thesis (the reason why I am still alive at this moment is more due to the lack of pianos, as well as the lack of people who are willing to sacrifice a perfectly good instrument for education).

    And I am so. Behind. It's pretty ridiculous, and I will, in fact, be home all weekend catching up. Fun fun fun!

  • Midnight Kitchen Escapades!

    So it is about midnight right now, and I just went upstairs to make myself a hot cup of coffee to force myself through this goddamn essay. I nuked a mug full of water and, due to the lack of kitchen scissors, hacked a bag of coffee open with a knife. Then I poured the contents inside my cup of hot water; lumpy grounds floated to the top as I stared dumbly. I took a spoonful and it tasted like cigarette butts.

    It was then that I realized that we don't actually have a coffee maker.

    So I put a paper towel on top of another mug and poured the "coffee" into that. I took a sip.

    It tasted like cigarette butts put through a coffee filter. I added sugar and milk until it was barely recognizable as coffee and downed it in a few gulps, trying to shut off my taste buds for a few precious seconds.

    And then I wanted a corn dog, so I hunted around in the freezer until I found the soy dog box (it tastes pretty much the same). Addendum: we have a dead fly in the back of our freezer. Is that hygienic?

    And, re-dogged and with a bad aftertaste in my mouth, I headed back downstairs. To hell.
