If I kept a food diary, this is what the last 24 hours would look like:
Dinner last night - a mini bag of baked potato chips, orange juice, and one bite of disgusting macaroni and cheese, made with canned whipping cream instead of milk
Midnight snack - tortilla chip fragments from the bottom of the bag
Breakfast this morning - 1/2 a mini bag of baked potato chips and a handful of sweetened coconut
Lunch - a can of green beans and three oreo cookies
The conclusion? Studying for finals and trying to finish several massive papers = no time to cook or go to the grocery store = a wonderful way to encourage creative meal planning. If I don't get off Blogger and finish footnoting my paper, dinner tonight just might be canned tuna and ranch dressing over spaghetti noodles. Yum!

3, 2, 1, - Back to writing my paper!
I may be looking towards a late night of paper-writing, but I'm not here to complain about it, I promise. Not that my random observations will be any more exciting:
3. Running in the rain is not nearly as awesome in practice as it seems in theory. Especially when the individual contemplating the running is as out of shape and un-runnerish as I happen to be.
2. Cadbury mini eggs are incomprehensibly delicious. I may or may not have (ok, may have) eaten an entire bag since Easter. Why do they not sell these things all year? They make M&Ms seem so inadequate in comparison. Plus, unlike M&Ms, Cadbury eggs are animal-cruelty free (although, unfortunately, still the product of all sorts of awful child labor... my Transnational Corporation and International Human Rights class is ruining my life by giving me a conscience.... as if the calories weren't already enough to feel guilty about.)
1. Ok, so I promised I wouldn't talk about my paper, but: so glad not to live in China! Let's just say the reading I've been doing about forced live organ donations from prisoners who refuse to denounce their illegal religious beliefs is making me more than a little bit squeamish. Also, I dislike most rice, so the country probably wouldn't be a good fit for me anyways.
