Confessions of a Slacker
2008-03-11 00:00:00 (UTC)

Too much junk food.

I actually got up very early this morning (if you can consider 9:30 am “very early”… but for me it might as well be the crack of dawn), went to McDonald’s and got two Sausage Biscuits plus a large unsweetened iced tea with lemon, for which they charged me $5.69.

$5.69? For that?! What’s the world coming to?

Then, in midafternoon I walked to White Castle (about three miles from where I live) and had eight cheeseburgers, plain… no onions, no pickle.

Geez. I expected any minute to get wapped on the head like in those TV commercials: “Could’ve had a V-8.”

Then this evening I had three donuts from the Jewel in-store bakery. Too much junk food.

At least the weather’s finally warmed up. Today it was in the mid-40s, and the next several days are supposed to be the same (I heard 50° for Thursday… Wow!). Sure is nice to take long walks again without having to dodge patches of ice on the sidewalk. Only problem was it was pretty windy today, windy and dirty, which meant I had to be very careful about my contact lenses.

I meant that the air was dirty, but everything kind of looks a little dingy, too. We could use a good rain.
