The status is NOT quo.

I tried to buy a loaf of bread yesterday that didn't have high fructose corn syrup. I had to look through about eight brands.

I recommend Miltons.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mmmm. Oatmeal.

Today is much like any other Monday so far. Can't end soon enough for me, and is certaing to get more stressful towards the end.

I do this too, but I have been informed (by my mother) that this is the height of rudeness. I am not sure she speaks for all america!

I don't get this, unless it's the angled/one way thing (which I've noticed is a lot more common here on the West Coast).

If I got up early enough to make breakfast, I'm sure I could probably come up with a tasty, healthy way to prepare oatmeal. The odds of that happening are relatively slim.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, breakfast for me is usually a Luna Bar. Unfortunately, I'm out of them, so I was forced to stop at Chik-Fil-A.

Fortunately, nobody at work cares if we eat breakfast at our desks, and oatmeal is super-easy to make in the microwave. I don't mean the instant kind in the packets; regular oatmeal from a canister can be made in the microwave. I've slowly converted at least half my office to oatmeal for breakfast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Half the girls in my office eat instant oatmeal for breakfast -- you don't even need the microwave.

Yup. Just fill up the cup with hot water from the coffee machine and let it sit for a few minutes and you're good to go.

Breakfast I eat at home before work doesn't keep me from getting hungry at 10 am anyway.

In news of me, they're drilling holes in my precious walls. But soon I will have the teevee, so it's a good thing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I got up early so I could go get steak and eggs before breakfast. Nummy. But I'm hungry again.

Once it gets cooler I'll probably switch back to making oatmeal at home.
