I am hungry. What shall I eat?
- The six cough drops lying at the bottom of my purse (downside: not currently coughing, seems like overkill)
- The sacred triangular M&M sitting atop my computer (downside: possible sacrilege)
- Someone else's lunch, pilfered from the break room fridge (downside: limited to frost-encrusted Lean Cuisines and leftover burritos)
- 1/2 packet of Crystal Light (flavor: Pink Lemonade) found in desk drawer (downside: solidified into a mass, extremely sour when undiluted by water)
- Last third of Almond-scented shea butter body cream (downside: label reads "for external use only")
- Dirt from potted plant adjacent to my desk (downside: may deliver final blow to ailing plant, me)
- Avon lip balm, "summer citrus" flavor (downside: waxy, not in season)
- Last crumbs of "Munchos" ("A light-tasting crispy snack!") inexplicably stuffed into other desk drawer (downside: None! We have a winner!)
