hungry

omg I'm so hungry and all I have is grits I dropped my cracked earbud in the paint water... I put it in some grits since I didn't have rice ... maybe it'll be OK

and the problem with grits is you need a microwave so I can't cook them in the middle of the night

omg I should have let my friend give me a soup earlier ... I'm so hungry I swilled some vinegar from a jalapeño jar and ate two sugar packets and I'm chewing on a rock hard pear ... I've got to stay up and finish this painting , its almost done
