The End Of The World

we havent had hot water since friday.  normally a broken water heater is something i would flip out about and take care of immediately, but everything is pretty ridiculous in this place anyway so it’s just par for the course.  i spilled a beer on the floor yesterday and the tile was actually cleaner because of it.  i even usually walk around in flip-flops because of it, but it came in handy tonight when i was able to whip one off and fling it at the mother of all mosquitoes on my wall.  despite all the tolerable squalor, tomorrow’s 7am cold shower is going to be horrible and i am not looking forward to it.

“His intake is 12,000 calories a day, six times the recommended limit, from healthy doses of breakfast, lunch and supper.  Breakfast, which is served daily at 5am, consists of three fried egg sandwiches with cheese, tomatoes, fried onions and mayo, a five-egg omelette, a bowl of porridge, three slices of French toast, and to finish off three pancakes with chocolate chips. And there’s still lunch and supper to come.”

So another thing Michael Phelps and I have in common (and why we should date) is that we pretty much eat the same thing for breakfast.

dinner

ok so i had this for lunch today with ketchup and it was marvelous!  i’ll take your word on the sugar (because really what isn’t better when dipped in sugar) but i think i still with heinz for now.

doree:

grilled cheese sandwiches always taste 10x better when cut into triangles, dont ask me why, it’s just science.

Also when dipped in ketchup, or (really!) sugar.

i am kind of embarrassed to admit this

but i quite like this ep from some “band” that eric lodwick (he is the brother of the infamous jakob) is in, especially the song “the joke.”

buttwipe

i have 1 female and 2 male roommates and we all share 1 bathroom. the lady and i had a lengthy discussion over drinks tonight about which male purchased cottonlle fresh wipes and placed them on the toilet—seemingly for all of us to use at his or her pleasure. as a minimialist and total utilitarian, i do not see the need or want for lotioned butt wipes. she, as an environmentalist, is more angry at the pearly unrecycable plastic box they come in, but also doesn’t see what the real purpose to these wipes are.

so the real question is, for those of you who use them, WHY??

i accidently bought them once—the walgreens generic version—because i thought they were lysol wipes. once i figured it out, it totally made sense why the sink i had been wiping down smelled like baby bottom.
