The second most exciting thing I did yesterday was open a new bottle of deli mustard. I have not finished my last bottle, but I was having a hot dog and wanted Hebrew National deli mustard. This begs a question: what was the most exciting thing that I did yesterday? I ate a poptart dipped in sugar-free pudding for desert.
As I took a moment to look down upon the pitiful creature I have become, my giddy laughter was tinctured with self-loathing and despair. Unable to decide whether to burst into tears or collapse in gales of manic laughter, I could only return to the anesthetizing tedium of organic chemistry. The test is on Friday. I am not yet ready.
