i shoulda had a V8

i’ve got a bellyache. i blame it on the chocolate cookies i had for dinner. i didn’t intend to have cookies for dinner. my intent was to have a delicious pasta and chicken dinner at mom and pop’s. but my mom, who will never be a fine, upstanding member of the momclub, forgot to make enough for me and sister #4. yeah, so there was no dinner there.

then i had to go shopping for mamala’s birthday gift with sister #4. my old navy cherry has been broken. before tonight i had never, ever been in an old navy store. let’s just say it was a tad anticlimactic. the floors were cement and there were gobs of t-shirts everywhere. hearing the sisters talk about it, you’d think this was the valhalla of cheap, cool clothes.

i must admit that sister #4 bought me a pair of orange flip-flops of $3.50. that’s pretty rad. i dunno why she bought them for me. maybe because she realizes how lucky she is to have a super duper sister like me.

but i was hungry. so really i just wanted to go home and eat.

and i would have made some dinner when i got home. but i had to fix the patio door, since mr. furley either ignored or never noticed the screendoor lying on the patio. then i wanted to check my e-mail because i was having some lively discussions earlier. so then i got all carried away reading some archives. so then i got all weepy and lonely and started eating cookies.

and that brings you up to date. i am lonely and weepy with an upset tummy. i think my patheticness has reached a whole new low. i am so impressed.

    Old Navy depresses me, too. Maybe it’s just the evil influence of that place? Fie! Fie, Old Navy!

    And everyone knows Junior Mints are heaven-sent. I can’t put up with such blaphemy…

    There are many people who have nearly endless bellies for cookies, without even having endless bellies. I just try not to do it more than six nights a week. =]

    usually i have no problem with cookies it might have been the anclimactic old navy event, coupled with the extreme hunger that upset my belly. because you know, i sure as hell ain’t giving up on chocolate cookies.

    Yeah, but also no Pop-Tarts. What’s up with that oversight?
