The End of the World {sort of}

Okay, what I'm about to say hardly constitutes a real end to my world, much so like the night I ran out of dental floss on a Sunday night in Baltimore was. But it's pretty high up there. Relatively speaking, of course. =)

I woke up today and poured myself a bowl of Autumn Wheat cereal. Then I opened the fridge, and to my demise, no carton of vanilla flavored soy milk could be surveyed over the horizons of refrigerator racks! What?!? I always have two cartons of soy milk, and two of orange juice, in the fridge. But I guess with my being home all of last and this week, I must have misjudged the rate of food consumption. After all, I went to the grocery store just over the weekend and skipped purchasing the soy milk thinking I have enough for another week!

So now my bowl of cereal is sitting all alone on top of my kitchen counter. In lieu of that, I ate two bananas and a cereal bar that I got from the end of the Shamrock Shuffle. And I'm still hungry. Well, that could be due to the close proximity to lunch time right about now though.

In any case, I've been thinking since the world crashed {yet again} this morning. I don't think that I like not traveling for work. I mean, it's good to have the rare opportunity to hang out with my friends during the weeknights {if possible}, but let me explain. First of all, as you have learned earlier, I run out of my essential foods faster. Then I also realize that I go through soap faster as well. I mean, a bar of soap generally lasts me over a month, but now it's almost like two weeks only. Then there's toilet paper. I just remembered that I am on my very last roll of toilet paper! And who can forget trash? My rubbish bin just gets fuller faster, and I have to take them out more often!

Who enjoys all that? I am way too accustomed to somebody making the bed, taking out the trash, refreshing the towel rack, replenishing the toilet paper and other toiletries, fresh breakfast every morning without worrying about running out of cereal or milk, all of which on a daily basis! {Ah... Heaven!} But of course, there's this thing called reality. Although the running out of soy milk was almost the end of my world, I also realize that hanging out with my friends more frequently far outweighs {okay, maybe not THAT much =) } the "pains" that I have to go through for working at home. Of course, there's that boredom during the day at home, but still it's worth it. Like last night, when I kicked off this work week with a little happy hour gathering at Kinzie's! {Where they serve happy chicken and happy calamari; not the sad and pathetic ones.}

So yeah, it's not really the end of the world. Well, it never has been anyway, but I thought it would be funny to use that as my blog topic. =) Okay, back to boredom. Maybe I'll watch the Tony Danza show during lunch this time instead of Sponge Bob Squarepants. That or All My Children... Nah. I'll just stick to CNN Headline News. =)
