Having just encountered the first work-related issue that required any thought in the last couple of weeks, he folded his arms against his chest. The crunching in his chest pocket was neither expected nor surprising -- surprisingly. It was kind of satisfying so he squeezed a little harder knowing that he was making it harder to clean. Inspecting the damage, he saw a pulverized potato chip. Salt and vinegar. Hawaiian-style. Somehow, it made sense that there was a salt and vinegar chip there. A little brain cell chimed in, "yeah, don't you remember? We were getting low on chips and that one was there to be eaten in case of a no-more-chips emergency."
The past view days have been full of interesting things. I saw a little black bird hop into the front passenger-side wheel of my car and come out with something in his mouth. I didn't realize there were bird goodies there, but that's good to know.
After a vitamin-grease filled meal at Kentucky Fried Chicken, I saw this. I've been by this area at least a couple of dozen times over the last year, and I never noticed the Wonderbread/Hostess Outlet before. A loaf of Wonderbread is $0.69, and 30 Twinkies are $5.99. Yeah, I got 30 Twinkies. And a bag of hot dog buns, and some special hot dog chili (Texas Pete, or something. don't ever get it. it was kinda gross.). KFC lunch, followed by a hot dog lunch and a chilli dog dinner the next day. I'm totally going to have a heart attack before 30. But not before I eat my 30 Twinkies.
There was also a plastic Twinkie the Kid Twinkie holder. Took me a second to figure out what that was for. Twinkies are already individually wrapped, so it's not to keep dirt off it. The cellophane doesn't do much in the way of squish protection, though.
I also discovered how to make my wrist guard angry.
Flowers are in bloom everywhere. Too bad I only see these when I'm all grumpy and on my way to work.
