lemons

So I went to buy some fruit at a small, nearby market. And I bought four grapefruit that came already packed in a little net bag (you know those little netting baggy things?).

Oh man, that's definately going in my aim profile or something...
"When life gives you lemons... I guess you eat them with grapefruit."
It's so... literal. Amazing. Ha.

p.s. Well, was it good?! haha!
p.s.s. I get paid on friday (WOOO!!! Until then, it's pb&j and easy mac...) and then I'll send you a package! Yay! And I've been trying to think of a way to smuggle cheddar cheese to you, but for some reason I don't think it's going to work :(
p.p.s. The only thing I can think of that I miss is biscuits! What an absurd thing, too! I almost said nutella and bisucuits, but in reality I can get nutella here... but not biscuits! Why haven't we caught on yet?! Geez America, get with the program!
p.p.s.s. Yes, this comment had more substance in the post scripts than in the actual comment... I'm a rebel, what can I say?

oh, biscuits like chocolate digestives! Or McVitties is what we had in the UK... but I think they're relatively the same thing... the ones you eat with nutella! haha!

Oh and yes, you are a dork. Haha, I wouldn't have even thought of that! Maybe you could make ice-tea lemonade and put the peels in it... however that is a summer time drink and well, it's not summer. Hmmm.

haha, i though this was a different person's journal entry... so i was just about to type "this is the most interesting thing you've ever said"... then i realized it was you, and it was still interesting, but not as surprising... i love livejournal... :)
p.s. i have to admit, i didn't see any new songs in the gmail account for a few days and then i didn't check it for a while... so now i've completely forgotten the username and password... um... maybe you can send them to my gerudo account? i got the seventh song today though... i'm lovin all of it so far - the pictures especially... how did you get so proficient in paint???
