Job 33:28

Thursday, September 28, 2006

I was having a snack last night. It was cereal. I bought some nice Muslix with soft dates and seedless raisins (it’s the little things you appreciate here.) I was enjoying it when I noticed little dead ants floating in the milk.

It is at time such as this you must make some decisions that reflect your inner most self.

I could have: 1. thrown a fit and ranted about ants in my cereal!
2. thown the yummy cereal away, disappointed to have lost my snack.
3. ignored the ants and continue to eat the cereal- figuring that I’d already
eaten some anyway.

What would you do?

I would have thrown it away... but I'm pretty sure you didn't.

I would (and have) eaten it. and i don't care what anyone says, when you're hungry, you're hungry!

Depends. Do I have enough left in the bowl to really make this loss a disappointment? Am I a vegetarian extremist and see this as a loss of eating integrity or am I just a vegetarian that doesn't like the texture of meat?
I probably look around (even though alone) and then pick out all the ants I can quickly to avoid sogginess and eat the rest.

OK, I think I like option 1. Any excuse to throw a fit and I am happy. Well, maybe not, but that sounds like fun. Not sure if ants are my thing. I can say for sure that silk worms are definitely not my thing!!!
