*Lass also apparently uses superfluous tags.*
I've been looking back over these past few months, and I've felt off. Felt different. At the time, I wanted nothing more than to go back to the good old days.
But now? Could I just ignore all the ways I've suffered and grown? Caught hold and let go? Could I return from life, having now lived?

As was Corn's rant about hospital muffins.

I ranted about hospital muffins? That sounds like something I would do. *thinks* August 2018? I think I vaguely remember this. That muffin really was horrible.

Verdauga

Found it. Y'know, in case you really cared.

I'm eating my chocolate chocolate chip muffin with a fork.

Also I'm salty because WHERE ARE THE CHOCOLATE CHIPS? Stupid hospital food. Also it's not very chocolate-y. I am well-versed in bad chocolate that tastes more like dirt than chocolate, as that happens a lot in the organic/all-natural/etc. world, but this really takes the cake. Or should I say muffin? I HAVE INDULGED IN A BAD-FOR-YOU TREAT AND IT IS TERRIBLE. This cost me 2.59? No. Just no. It's bad enough that I had to pick through the rest of the food I got to find the edible bits (my lunch consisted of several mild cheddar cheese cubes, five cherry tomatoes, a small handful of nasty cucumbers, a few disgusting grapes, some shredded cheese, and a lot  of iceberg lettuce) and I was really looking forwards to this muffin. >_< I should have known. Yes I know that sounds like a lot but it really wasn't. Especially for me, the Bottomless Food Disposal. (Mini rant is over now)

TL;DR: Corn is mad at her disappointing muffin and other various food items.

Yeah I went back and looked at it. :P I remember that muffin now, as well as the rest of that food, and it was truly awful. Nasty.

I love reading BYU police reports

Oh?

Wylder Treejumper

Provo is one of the safest towns in the USA, so the crimes are sometimes ridiculous.


Quote from: BYU Police BeatFebruary – A 28 year old man was arrested and jailed for huffing air duster from cans he just stole from Office Depot in the back of a Hobby Lobby.

January - Orem Police Department is investigating thefts at Al's Sporting Goods at the Orem mall. Several teens stole several hydro flask bottles and Burt's Bees lip balms which total value was almost $200 dollars.

February – Three Orem Police Officers found five juveniles in the process of trying to steal several construction cones in their car. No charges were filed. Their parents were called and all cones were recovered and replaced.

Jan. 14 – A little bunny was located in the area of 900 West and 300 South.

Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

There are some pretty great ones here: https://universe.byu.edu/2018/12/11/best-of-police-beat-2018-1-2/

Some I especially like:
Quote from: BYU Police BeatApril 24 — A man was cited for shoplifting at Smith's when he tried to leave with a T-bone steak down his pants.

Oct. 25 — A woman at a local gas station attempted to steal $50 worth of donuts by hiding them in her handbag. When asked about what she was doing, she abandoned the donuts and left.

Oct. 1 — An officer responded to a report of two juvenile goats found fighting in the middle of 400 E. Center Street at 10 p.m. The officer detained the goats.

. . . I'm not sure which one is my favorite, honestly.

At least they went far enough to specify "juvenile goats". It'd be a normal report if it just said "kids".
