The Regularly Scheduled Chupacabra Has Been Pre-Empted to Bring You This Important Announcement
Oh, hello. Are you still here?
Last night, I had a bowl of cherry tomatoes for dinner because Rob is out of town and I Couldn’t Be Bothered. They may have been grape tomatoes. I am turning into some kind of animal, a kind that works all day and eats cherry (or grape) tomatoes for dinner. A monkey?
In honor of National Coming Out Day, observed earlier this week, I am going to Come Out as someone who as a child used to practice falling off of skyscrapers. My parents’ bed stood in for the roof of the building; I would position myself so I was hanging off as far as I could and then try to pull myself back up. Sometimes, my parents’ bed was a rock in middle of a lava floe, but it was the same principle. More often than not, I ended up on a heap on the floor, the bedspread piled on top of me, but I learned my lesson.

The motto of coo coo land is "Do you already have a stamp card?"
"Hi!" is another great candidate for motto.

Were cherry (or grape) tomatoes ever for breakfast in the first place? I can't imagine that little episode was beneficial to your bowel movements.

Perhaps you could get Rob to, I don't know, make some lasagne and put it up in the freezer for you? We can't have you living on cherry (or grape) tomatoes like that, it's just absurd.

Cara: I like "Hi!" because I don't know what on earth I'd do with a stamp card. Then again, it takes a while for an idea to become a motto. It's like a little bill singing on Capitol Hill.
David: You can keep my bowel movements out of this, you invert. Who can tell a difference between a cherry tomato and a container of yogurt at eleven o'clock in the morning, anyway?
Mush: Rob did leave me some frozen dinners, but I ate them. If he hadn't also left the cherry (or grape) tomatoes, I would be hungrier today. Thanks for your concern, though.
