Haters of smooth peanut butter UNITE!

Tip of the Post:

Never, ever put smooth peanut butter on something hot.

This is why:

This morning, like any other morning, I walked to the cafeteria with a pre-bought bagel in hand (from Shoppers… they were expensive at $4.00 for 6, but not as astronomical as in the caf) and, upon arrival, stuck it in the toaster and went to grab a banana (woot!) and a coffee (not so woot!) while I waited. I was feeling pretty hungry, so I thought I would deviate from my usual choice of cream cheese for a cheaper, more protein packed package of peanut butter. Wow. That alliteration was unintended.

ANYWAYS!

I bought everything ($2.12, not bad) and walked back over the the toaster and spread my peanut butter. When I was done, I squished the bagel together and dropped off my dirty knife at the conveyor belt, bagel in my left hand and mocha in my right. It smelled so good I couldn’t resist taking a bite.

HORRORS, as I did so, a huge stream of liquid peanut spewed from the bagel and dripped onto my pants, my sweater, the floor, my shoes… I was so startled that I kind of jumped and screamed and succeeded in spilling my overly-full mocha (I want the most for my money, okay?) onto my shirt and pants. And then it KEPT dripping all over the place so I started to run down the stairs so get outside and, literally, streamlines of peanut butter were flying in my wake. I didn’t even put that much on! I swear, it was regenerating just to spite me. I was laughing and trying to salvage some of my breakfast while I was running… I’m pretty sure people thought I was crazy. In fact, I’m sure of it because as I sped by I heard a guy question my sanity (without a lack of profane terms).

And then I had 7 minutes to get across campus to my math class. Miracle of miracles, I made it.

Other than that, I’ve been pretty happy with myself when getting stuff done for school. I feel like I’ve figured it out. Yesterday and Monday I cleared a huge pile of work and now I have all of today and tomorrow to study just for my physics midterm. I need the time badly, too.

Speaking of physics, I need to get going if I’m going to make it to my lecture on time.

Have a happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
