HOW CAN I EVER FORGET

Isn't it annoying when people say they simply "forgot" to eat? It's like someone forgetting to breathe or allow their kidneys to function.

However, today, I did forgot to eat.

I think it was because I became serious attached to a large amount of bubble gum - when you get a wad to just the correct consistency to blow some serious bubbles.... well, what can I say? I didn't learn how to blow bubbles until an adult (simply was physically impossible until I had jaw surgery), so now I take the occupation very acutely and am making up for 31+ years of being bubble-disadvantaged.

Plus I ended up doing about twenty more errands than I had planned, to include getting lunch for two kids, arguing with a pharmacist technical for about twenty minutes, picking a book that would keep me occupied for a seven hour flight but not embarrass me by anyone else seeing the title (a Harlequin romance, or a paperback entitled "How To Divorce Your Husband Without Him Ever Noticing"), and trying to leave Target with spending most of my pocket money for this upcoming trip.

Suddenly it was 7 p.m., and I realized I hadn't eaten anything.

Well, besides a Dairy Queen ice cream.

But that didn't count.... right?
