Food, Glorious Food

The past three weeks have illustrated the biological necessity to eat. Not eating can very likely lead to the following, in chronological order:

• Getting hit by a car while crossing the street
• General lethargy, laziness, and a deliberate middle-finger gesture in the direction of the gym
• All-around crankiness and irritability with friends and family
• Random spacing out
• Forgetting how to spell the name of a good friend's wife in the Congratulations-on-the-New-Baby message
• Blurred vision while conducting interviews with bright young people
• Not caring about SCOTUS nominees
• Leaving a debit card at the ATM machine (ironically, on the way to get food)

"Please, sir, I want some more."

Taking a line from Oliver (or the other Oliver), however, leads to:

• Love for all
• Exclamation points in emails
• Better karaoke performances
• Laughter
• Ability to recite Presidents for a trivia night with strangers
• Chair-bopping

'Nuff said.
