Some random shit

- The other day at Starbucks I ordered an Iced Caramel Macchiato and the girl seriously squirted enough caramel into that thing to smother a hippo. You ever suck a mouthful of caramel up through a straw and almost choke on it? It's just as homoerotic as it sounds.

- Kroger has completed yet another step in its quest to make me wish there was another fucking grocery store I could go to. (Step 1: only sell produce that looks like it's all been run over by a truck, Step 2: don't sell any Fiji water, Step 3: randomly stop selling things once I start buying them regularly, etc.) The latest addition is the sale of sandwiches containing lettuce that is completely frozen. I guess a sandwich full of ice isn't so bad, but I don't typically want my turkey sandwiches to be so refreshing.

- Number of leopard slugs I've caught in my room in the past 2 days: 4. It can't be the same one that just keeps coming back, because I throw them pretty far (outside) when I find them. I might have to start salting my floor or something. Another solution would be to move out of Bowling Green and never ever come back.

...


When I think of the amount of time I spend complaining about such utterly banal minutiae, and then read a quote like this, it makes me think I might be living incorrectly.

I would move... that thing looked wicked gross. Is that one of those 'ignorance is bliss' things?

The more I learn the hard I find it is to be calm or happy. The more you know. do do do.

yeah, seriously. How can you be calm and happy if you pay any attention to anything? Is apathy (without space, without time, I am deaf, I am blind) the key? I think you have to just shrug everything off.

And the slugs are actually kind of cute, but I'm concerned about them burrowing into my brain while I sleep. If they took over my brain, who knows what kind of evil they'd use me for?

I think you should run out of Bowling Green.

Spit sperm?

Cute?! We Todd did, We Todd did, you are sofa king, We Todd did.

Also, perhaps Baka gets a slug in his brain, which allows him to sense/control zombies. Zombie Master Baka?

Xumbi - what would killing them accomplish? To finally prove mankind's superiority over the lowly slug? Isn't it enough that I can throw them like 50 feet?

Z. Monkey - I don't want to give Baka super powers. But Zombie Master Baka would be a really cool name for a DJ.
