Daily Mealer 3/30/12
Editor's Note: Today I
arrived late to my current place of employment. Upon my eventual
entrance I notice Agnus is missing, and the door to Reginald's office is
closed. The anticipation mounts as I eagerly await her exit so I might
assess today's mood. I am happily greeted by both of them several
minutes later, to my surprise. Looking at a good day today.
8:47a
"I'm so hungry!!" This is possibly one of the more exciting things I
have heard in my 25 years incarnate on planet Earth. I eagerly, as a
child grappling for the largest candy bar in the assortment their first
time out for Hallows Eve, open my email account, slide the computer ever
closer to me in a most inconspicuous manner, and begin typing, smiling
all the while, and maliciously posing the
question to Agnus, "Well that's good, so you're getting your appetite
back?" Mwa ha ha... She replies, "Yes, the last couple days I just
haven't felt like eating." I've noticed, and the drought brought forth
much boredom born of my readers, please, do not let it happen again. I
cannot continue to pick up the pieces after your hunger strike.
8:51a
Walks to kitchen bearing a box of Raisin Bran and large sized mug.
Fills mug with said cereal, grabs quart of milk from fridge and begins
the treacherous 24' journey back to her lair. Amidst the expedition
across expansive fields of berber she states, "Let's see how this
works." I reply, innocently, "What?", she follows up with, "This Raisin
Bran." Great! I can't wait.
9:23a Stacey goes
to view daily specials, as you know, Friday is order out day, and Friday
during Lent is order out fish day. "Seafood Salad....mmmm..." says
Stacey. I say, "Are you ordering
today?" "Yes, like, now, I'm starving!" I ask Agnus if she brought
lunch, one of my favorite questions. "Yes." I am floored! It's Friday! I
ask her what, she replies, "Cheeseburgers. One and a half
cheeseburgers." Stacey chimes in, with a tinge of sheer terror in her
voice, "On Friday?! You brought meat on Friday?" Agnus, now getting up
from her desk and walking over to discuss this with us, begins
explaining. "Well, I was going to bring ziti and sauce, but while I was
walking downstairs with a bowl and spoon to get it from the basement, I
figured fuck it, it's easier to just grab cheeseburgers." Now I am
really confused. If both items are in the fridge in your basement, why
is it easier to just grab cheeseburgers??
10:07a
Stew's wife and 2 year old daughter came to visit us, bringing with
them a small box of candy to sell for their son's boyscout troop. I am
instantaneously excited at first sight of the delectable
assortment of chocolate and nougat, this is sure to spark office wide
excitement. Stacey purchases a bag of pretzel m&m's, extends an
offer to me, I accept two m&m's. She then walks over to Agnus' lair,
Agnus is fully rapt in a telephone conversation (personal), so Stacey
generously pours a small pile of the sweet and salty treats on Agnus'
desk for her to discover once she returns to work. Minutes later I hear,
"OH MY GOD! What are these!?!??!?!" I reply, "Pretzel." To see the pure
ecstasy on her face was so pleasing to me.
10:16a "Candy bars are so friggin' good in the freezer."
12:27p One and half cheeseburgers, paired with two slices of wheat toast.
2:17p "I could go for some nice friggin' ass desert, like cannolis."
