I’m a week and a half in, and it has been a summer of oddities so far. I’m leaving for Nebraska today, and I wonder if the strangeness will continue. So far, I’ve witnessed…
…ants that have been eating Terro ant poison for ten days.
…Max finally catching a fly
…and eating it.
And the most amazing of all: bread with an expiration date of May 7 with absolutely no mold on it whatsoever. The package says Wonder Bread. It should say Miraculous Bread. I wonder what it will look like when I come back from Nebraska? Still no mold? That would be AWESOME! I would try a bite.
What astounding amazements await me in Nebraska? I can hardly wait!
UPDATE: My flight today was canceled. Delta didn’t say why. I leave for Nebraska tomorrow instead. Amazing.
Oh, we’ve got amazements here – just you wait. For starters, there’s nothing to eat in this house. Maybe you could bring some flies and Terro.
…and Miraculous Bread?
Heck, I think Wonder Bread may have been named that due to the number of preservatives they include, as in, “it’s a WONDER more people don’t become ill/get cancer/die from eating it.” If there’s any truth to that, thank you, Grandma K, for serving only pumpernickel or other rye breads at any meals as I grew up.
..and Max must have inhaled that insect – his face moved so fast it is blurry, and I barely see the tip of a “my, that was yummy!” tongue swipe across the lips. Good job, Max!
What is it that Hostess puts in its products that cause them to never age?
And Yay for a foot picture! Too cute Max!
Happy flying! (and landing)
My flight was canceled. I’ve spent the past hour on the phone. I’m leaving for Nebraska tomorrow instead. Dang.
booooooooooooooo…….
And yet another oddity!!!!!

I hate Delta. And I’m really afraid for you to eat non-moldy bread that’s been sitting around for a couple of months.
And don’t eat the Terro either.
The Terro with Borax just doesn’t have the same kick as the old cyanide formula.
I’m sad you won’t be having Farmer’s Market hamburgers with us tonight. Alicia is serving.
Are you speaking from personal dining experience there, Brent, or as a fellow ant-killer? One could take your reflection either way (which was, I suppose, the point, eh?)…
