SUCCESS!!

You know how I said in an earlier post, how that we take for granted those little things we get to see/have everyday? Yeah yesterday was totally one of those days for me.

Sitting at home, trying to fight off any lunch hunger pains I had, i decided to be a bit daring. I drove out to the ghetto grocery. (Side note: Ghetto Grocery is Stop and Shop, thats what we called it in Bridgeport, CT so it has just stuck) I made an executive decision, I was going to attempt to eat some sort of REAL carbohydrate if it kills me. Water and juice wasn't cutting it. I totally forgot it was a holiday yesterday and to my horror, the grocery was a ZOO. uggggh. Head down, hat pulled low, texting anyone who will talk to me. Hell even if they weren't texting back, I was still texting them. Anything to prevent making eye contact. I grabbed the first instant mashed potatoes i could find. Betty Crocker. Can't go wrong with Betty right? Well I get back to my car and i instantly have regrets, these so called mashed potatoes only require water. hmmmm Wellp what the hell right...I get home and make them as soupy as possible by adding milk, a lot of milk, to them. They smelled good! Now comes the task of eating them. Thankfully I have some friends in the Elliot Health System who hooked me up with a GIANT syringe called a Catheter Syringe. Don't know it? Google it. It's 60mLs. Let me tell you....I didn't eat very much, but that was the BEST 30mLs of crappy instant potatoes EVER.
