Maybe I shouldn't have eaten 11 oatmeal raisin cookies today.

Maybe.
Maybe I have no will power.
Maybe they were good cookies.
Too good for their own good.

You're right, you shouldn't eat odd (or prime!) numbers of food. It would have been much better if you'd eaten a nice round dozen.

Or a baker's dozen.

This, coming from a girl who intentionally pulls away the signal from her TV remote, to get it to land on odd numbers. On purpose. A ƒucking travesty of proper TV volume numbering conventions--of epic proportions. Don't talk to me about nice round dozens. It sickens me.

Edit: Need help finding a good link to William Shatner saying "Don't tell me how to do it. It sickens me."

But I don't do it just to land on the odd numbers! I do it because there is a precise volume level necessary for each media program to result in the appropriate decibel level in my living room, and one more volume unit is too damn loud.

I didn't make them. I don't remember any specific instructions anyway. I think you said something about the box of oatmeal, but we buy ours in a 50# sack. I was going to beat up some kid and take his oatmeal box camera, but since everything's gone digital, they don't do that anymore. They have iphone apps for oatmeal pinhole cameras.

I made a pinhole camera out of an oatmeal box, but they were Quaker Oats, so the pictures came out all skinny.

I always poop like a champion anyway, it's more of a potential heartburn issue. I have to be very sparing in how much flour I eat. Though since I've stopped drinking coffee and wine at opposite ends of the day, and started freebasing this honey vinegar mix, I've had very little heartburn.

Go figure.

A friend of mine was touting Honey and Cinnamon the other day. He showed me a printout explaining how the combination will prevent, and cure, all diseases. Must be true, he got it in an email.
