Knock-off brand Sun Chips from Aldi's

Mom: I don't know what it is about these chips-- I can't stop eating them!
Me: Hmm, I don't know. They don't taste right. They taste-
Mom: Artificial. But I can't stop.
Mom: Like Meow Mix.*

*Riley the cat was strung out on Meow Mix for a while. It was a dark time in his life. And he did, in fact, ask for it by name.

Since I've been sick--

I've been wasting an obscene amount of time on the interwebz. So much.

I made a twitter.

Then I made a stumbleupon account to help me find more websites on which to waste my time.

Cheers to second semester senior year!

Here's what my throat has looked like since last Tuesday!

Disclaimer: This is not actually my throat, but the similarities abound.

I'm in pain and miserable and lonely. And swallowing is torture. And the antibiotics aren't working. And I have to take tylenol every two hours for the headaches. And now I'm done complaining.
