Propping Her Eyelids Open with Toothpicks Didn't Seem Like the Right Thing to Do
Chip: Where's Alice?
Whimsy: Down for her nap.
Chip: But you just fed her.
Whimsy: Yes.
Chip: But... you kinda got mad at me yesterday for trying to put her down for her morning nap so early.
Whimsy: I know.
Chip: So... what's the difference?
Whimsy: She wouldn't stay awake. I tickled her, blew on her neck, burped her repeatedly. She was totally comatose, so I put her to bed.
Chip: Oh.
Whimsy: I even tried poking her. It didn't work.

Alice came to a fork in the road.
"Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

GAH! What is UP with your grocery store! They're stealers, man!
"Because they were there" is totally my new excuse for large amounts of chocolate consumption!!
what is the world coming to when a grocery store steals from the customers? I admit I stole a pack of Fruit Stripe gum back in the day, but now the balances are tipped and the grocery stores are up.
I love "because they were there." In fact, there is leftover birthday cake sitting right THERE on my counter. Gotta go.
I'm thinking it's time for a new grocery store.
I actually have a problem with Whole Foods: my family likes one type of salami they have and only that one type. 3 out of 4 times I order it and they give us a different type. Which I realize when I get home. After paying $14/pound for it. And it happens over and over again.
(Yes- finally got smart and ask to taste a piece when they are slicing- fixed the problem. Took many many months before I came up with such a brillilant solution.)
Your grocery store is evil and trying to make you crazy.
I don't share food either. That's why there's a box of Mike & Ike's (the one you sent me) in the box where I keep all pictures that need sorting under the coffee table. And also, "because they were there" totally applies to me.
