I believe you lack nourishment. I'm going to say protein in particular. Come to think of it, same here.
I just made a run to the store for baking staples, so now I feel like I should make something. Maybe polenta; I've never made my own before.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
This is random, but I have to share something a friend posted elsewhere:
Reason I gave son for why explosives would not be a good garden squirrel deterrent: They don't have a strong enough oral history.

So, if a painter was working in your house while you were not home, and went in your cupboard and drank a can of tomato juice, and didn't leave a note, would you be freaked out?
I am so over this painter. Yesterday he left the front door open when he left. Only an inch, but, really!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I would be freaked out on many levels, not least being that apparently someone else is sneaking into my house and leaving tomato juice in the cupboard.

If you're talking about a single-serve size, I'd assume the painter meant to leave a note. I'd be pissed about the door, though.

Because books.
I wouldn't be freaked out, but I would be irritated. Leaving the door open is messed up, though, especially since you have the cats, which I assume he knows about.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The tomato juice would have me going, "Huh. Well, whatever." The open door would have me shooting firebolts out of my eye sockets.

Yeah, it's inappropriate for workers to be getting into your pantry, let alone eating your food. But it's dangerous for them to be leaving the premises unsecured.
