I haven’t had time to run to the store, so I had to have another smoothie for lunch. I like smoothies, so it’s okay. But I think I should probably have a dinner that involves vegetables and perhaps not peanut butter and banana. Maybe even solid food, we’ll see. I’ll do my best.
As for this afternoon, I found some Kashi Mediterranean crackers that I bought approximately seven years ago. They were in the back of the cabinet for a reason, but there was also some scallion cream cheese leftover from bagels this weekend. I creatively put the two together and produced a pretty tasty little snack - I almost didn’t notice that the crackers were stale:
I love scallion cream cheese. In college I used to dip Wheat Thins in cream cheese all the time. And then I’d have like 42 cookies and possibly a forty or two. Those were the days.
Anyway. This post is a little late because my cable and Internet went out and I had to spend 25 minutes on the phone with a very smart man from Time Warner Cable who told me that the only person in Brooklyn who has a Time Warner account is named Paul. I am serious about this. I almost lost my mind. I eventually was forced to tell him that there was something very wrong with him and that I was in danger of screaming if he didn’t transfer me to someone else. He then put me on hold and - shock! - managed to turn up an account with Chris’s name on it after all.


Can’t WAIT to hear about your adventures this weekend. And hope you get a real meal soon, lady- your stomach needs it!
I looove smoothies as well. If you’re concerned about getting in vegetables but wanting a smoothie, you can always make a green smoothie with spinach and bananas (the bananas mask the spinach flavor 100% - trust me).
One person with a Time Warner account in Brooklyn? That doesn’t seem odd to me at all.
well the time warner guy is a person too- and people make mistakes. I have a similar job but only work on fridays and saturdays so sometimes it takes a bit to get back in the swing of things.

It was fun. I don’t remember everything. If someone sends me pictures I will try to post a couple if they aren’t too indecent.

That’s what people say, but I’m a little skeptical. You really can’t taste it? I might try it one day. Sometimes I just have some cucumbers on the side though. I don’t really worry about it because I eat lots of vegetables in general.
Meg -
No. It’s totally not. Brooklyn is like a ghost town.

I know he’s a person, but that wasn’t exactly a mistake. I mean, I clarified with him about five times and he continued to tell me the same thing. It was ridiculous. I am, in general, very nice to operators and such. I make plenty of mistakes at my job. But this was unbelievably stupid.
I swear, you can’t taste it!! :0)
I have those same Kashi crackers hidden in the back of the cabinet…
“And then I’d have like 42 cookies and possibly a forty or two.” Amazing. So hysterical!
Oh! I used to do that in college too! Except after the cream cheese I would then dip them into jalapeno jelly.
Plus like 8 diet cokes.
I was lonely.
