it’s just the bullets bouncing off my helmet

i may have inadvertently eaten nilla wafers and fun-sized candy bars for dinner. i ate a dinner’s-worth of them, anyway. i hate that feeling, and the tough decision of whether to not eat any more tonight or put healthy food in my stomach to mix with the rest. blech.

maybe i’ll make the long foot-trek home rather than taking the bus, and feel better. and prevent my legs from becoming vestigial, souvenirs of an earlier time in my life. yes.

a couple days ago it was 2 or 3 in the morning and i was leaving my work building, walking toward the parking lot. it was dark and wet and drizzling. i spotted a bunny in the grass, a bold fellow who didn’t run away-he actually came a bit closer, and then he shook himself. water droplets came flying off his fur and i saw it all in high definition, it was awesome. really really awesome. you may have had to be there and entering into mild sleep-dep euphoria to understand, but it was so cool.

i find it funny… they keep the kitchen here stocked, largely with junk food. even when other foods run low there’s almost always a box or two of pop tarts. a while ago one of the international students tried the pop tarts and asked me if pop tarts were some kind of health food. turns out they tasted terrible to him, and he figured people would only eat them if they were good for them. he was pretty well convinced they must be healthy, and was baffled when i told him that they about as far from health food as one can get. =P
