friend:  'what did you have for dinner?'

me:  'sandwich...  peanut butter and cheesy spread...'

friend:  'you combined peanut butter and cheese?!'

me:  'gah!  no!  separate breads, different spreads...'

friend:  'haha...  okay...'

me:  'and know what, i ate half a loaf of bread...  you know gardenia's regular loaf?  half of that i consumed in one meal!'

friend:  'i thought you said pauper for dinner...
[i like to say:
breakfast like a king,
lunch like a princess,
dine like a pauper.]
were you hungry?'

me:  'not really.  but i noticed my bread's expiring tomorrow so i ate it all today...'

friend:  'what the...  you might suffer indigestion!'
