| Okay, Xanga told me I had to sign in or they would delete my blog. Classy.
So I visited my page to find there's a big ad on the left side now. Classy.
And when I logged in, I looked everywhere and couldn't find the link to make a new post, so I had to edit an old one. Fucking classy.
Hopefully my writing is safe for a while and I won't have to log in to this horrible place again. |

| I used to hate cashews. It took me a while to figure out why. I mean, come on, they're delicious.
I think I've traced it back to one Christmas at my grandparents' house. There was a tin of nuts on the coffee table and I grabbed a handful and shoveled them in my mouth. I had assumed these nuts were peanuts (because, honestly, to an eight year old kid, what else is there?) but they weren't. As I chewed I picked up another one and turned it over and over in my hand. It was curvy and tasted different. I made sure nobody was looking - it's easy to disappear among wine-addled adults on a holiday - and spit the whole mouthful into the wastebasket.
I don't think I ate another cashew for about ten years. And it wasn't necessarily because they didn't taste good. It's because they fooled me, and I resented them. |
