being good is highly overrated.

going against everything we stand for, loveandcyanide decided to start up a diet this week. surprisingly, we've been incredibly good thus far - which is saying a lot, as this phase of the diet we've chosen involves only eating fruits and vegetables, and as much as we like rabbits, its way more fun to eat them than imitate them. except for the bunny hop, which, bizarrely, we used to do around the house a lot. a lot.

sadly, all this good-ness has brought nothing but tragedy to my Favorite Sensible Work Bag. earlier this week, the oatmeal packet i was toting around with me opened, unleashing its contents all around FSWB. a grainy mess, but at least i got a whiff of cinnamon whilst putting on my sunglasses. today, the tupperware holding salad did not open, but somehow magically leaked out oil & vinegar all over FSWB. of course i only noticed this once the oil stained my pants, so now both poor FSWB and i smell a bit like a salad bar. (a minor plus to this, as i like conducting little sociological experiments, i can test to see if i'm attracting more vegans than usual.)

so the moral of the story? sticking to a healthy diet is totally hazardous. sausage and egg on a bagel has never once caused any harm to any of my belongings. and if it did, as we all know, i'd rather smell like a sausage than a salad anyday. someone, please, go eat a bacon cheeseburger for us.
