Grocery shopping is a dreaded affair. No, really. It is. I hates it so very, very much.
Recently, Cameron gave me his old iPod, so I've been music-ing it up on my walk to and from class. I highly enjoy having a soundtrack to life.
Seeing as, on the rare occasion that Karl and I go shopping together, it's 90% less painful, and seeing as, when I have music for my walk to and from campus it becomes 90% less painful, I put two and two together and came up with this glorious experimental situation: iPod + shopping!
To the music of Barcelona and The FOALS, shopping was 80% less painful.
I will never shop without music again. In fact, I might just endeavor to have a music bubble forever outside the confines of the place I live. Dun dun duuuun.
I feel sorry for that one kid who committed suicide because he couldn't find his iPod. Sure, it was retarded..but maybe he needed his music bubble way more than any of us can imagine, and losing it was just that devastating.
Also, this almost inspired me to get a iPad: http://kotaku.com/5516829/even-a-cat-can-play-ipad-games

Miracle Whip vs. Mayonnaise
I have decided to finally duel it out as to which one of the above I like. As a child, we always had both in the household, and I would use them interchangeably. As I had left over broccoli from when Dora was here, and these condiments since who knows when,, I decided to do it Japanese style.
So I have a bowl. With Miracle Whip. And Mayo. And I am now dipping the broccoli in each and taste testing.
The results:
Miracle Whip is like a cheap whore. Thrilling, short term, tangy, not to mention cheap, but a little shaky on the visual appearance, and not very high quality.
Mayonnaise is possibly a geisha. It has a smoother, cultivated taste to it so you need less of it, more refined, and more concerned with its visual representation. It lasts longer, for it is the more experienced condiment, and as quality requires, it is higher priced.
There we go. It is proven. I'm OK with miracle whip, but I prefer mayo.
I also don't think I really like broccoli...
