Here is a philosophical dining question. When you are on an erratic schedule because your job requires you to have been in an airport at odd hours, and furthermore your mutant power inhibits your ability to sleep, by what standard do you define your meals?

Is the meal I have just eaten brunch, because it is before noon but after 10 am? Is it breakfast because it is technically the first meal I have eaten since midnight? Is it dinner because I had a bowl of pho? Does the fact that I also have tea that one might normally drink for breakfast change that?

(in addition why does this keyboard not allow me to put the proper accent mark over pho?)

The way I look at it is this - do it in sets of three. So, from whenever you last slept, count from there and like. If you'd just eaten your eighth meal since sleeping, then it was lunch. Snacks don't count because they're snacks.

So if you are up for hours and days and hours then you start over? Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner? But then what if you take a nap?

Naps don't count cause they're naps. You could have lunch, take a two hour nap, get shot at by some weirdo, then have dinner, not breakfast, because naps don't count. But if you sleep for six hours or more, then you start over.

You have worked this out quite completely, yes? no?

It's food! Of course I've worked it out quite completely. Speaking of food though, since you're back now, how do you feel about Cheetos, lasagna, and some egg rolls? I'm thinking of trying them all at once.

Cheetos... are the crunchy orange sticks that turn everything orange? Or the puffy ones that taste of air and being in an airport at 4am with only a vending machine?

Yes! And both. At the same time.

I am not eating cheeto egg rolls, or cheeto lasagna. But I will not complain if you eat them, unless you get orange on me.

The lasagna and the egg rolls are separate and leftover from last night. The Cheetos are just because they're tasty. Also, I was thinking of getting some stroganoff from that restaurant owned by the Russians downtown, but I'm pretty sure I heard someone putting a hit out on someone else so I just turned around and left. Probably the dude was just messing with me, though.

I was going to ask if you meant the one by the hair salon but then I remembered that all the ones that are not safe are by hair or nail salons.

If it was by the nail or hair salon it may have been what you think.

I am not eating a Cheeto. I am not eating two Cheetoes. I will eat Cheerios, because those are good breakfast cereal. It will just have to be close enough.

It was totally by a nail salon. Why did I never make that connection? That's a connection I should have made.

Cheerios are delicious, too. Do you have the honey nut ones? Because if you don't, I'm making an emergency grocery store run. Also, you might not have any milk left so I'd better make one anyway.

Because when are you ever getting your nails done? :) It is not certain, I just am fairly sure that any of the nail or hail salons in certain areas are for money laundering. It is just that ALSO some of them do a very good job with pedicures.

I ... do not know. I have yogurt cups, and there is cream because tea, but I do not think we have milk. We might have soy milk because I think one of Amanda's minions drinks it, but I am not sure which one. Possibly the boy one.

You're totally right - I almost never get my nails done. Or my toes. Or my knees or elbows. Maybe I should work on that.

Spud Boy! Bringer of the Potatopocolypse as well as various and sundry other tuber-related disasters (c). I'll pick up some milk.

I do not know if it is him. It could be the new one with the art shoes. I do not think it is Topaz, or Nico - Nico has her own kitchen and Topaz does not put terrible things in her tea.

... wait it may be Topaz, if she is lactose intolerant. I seem to recall that people from India are sometimes lactose intolerant. I also heard people from China are as well but that has never stopped Jubilee from eating ice cream from other people's freezers so perhaps I am wrong.

Mutant metabolism, also energy projector. I get a pass on a lot of intolerances. It's like my body took a look at it's energy needs and went all 'Dude, enough with the intolerance, I need all the stuff I can get. Begone!'

It's like the best benefit ever. Also, if the Russian's say 'bro' a lot, it was definitely what he thought.

But I think people from any country can be lactose intolerant and if they are they definitely shouldn't drink milk because it does all kinds of incontinent things to them and that's not cool. It's not just India and China.

It was totally what I thought.

That is why I think it could be the boy one too. Or the art one. Or Topaz. But it is not Nico because she has her own kitchen for fake milk.

Wait, when did the milk turn fake? Is this like that internet cake thing?

This is why my ice cream carton has a mouse trap in it.

The only milk we have is soy, which is fake.

...wait, this is you not getting the reference because you're from the 70s and not the internet like me, right?

I don't think that's a description, dude. More a lifestyle choice.

Hey now! I totally never steal from your freeze except when you're there. Mostly because I still haven't worked out a way around Amanda's wards and anything I could use against them would have like, come from her anyway so what's the point in that?

I hear they make some really good pirojki but Kyle will totally not come with me. (I think he has something against guy's wearing tracksuits. )

Blasphemy, it's still a milkish substance. Rice milk is better for coffee though. Soy tastes of yuck and blech.
