walmart activities.

During my first two weeks Wal-Mart, I've learned a few things:

  1. I am addicted to Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, whether they are miniature, regular, big cup, on sale or not.  Now that is ridiculous.  Two weeks ago I had my mother buy me a bag.  Since then I've bought three more.  It's worse than crack because I can buy the stuff, legally, ANYWHERE.  You may think, "It's not that bad.  It's not like the candy is too expensive."  WRONG!  For a poor college student who only just recently got a job, the candies are horribly expensive.  But they are delicious. Yum.
  2. I can spend less than $3 on any meal.  True fact.  Wal-Mart really does have some fantastic deals.
  3. Cars' headlights attract and hold my attention for a very long time.  It's kinda odd, but when I drive home at night, I have to stare at the lights coming at me until they pass my window.  They fascinate me, especially when the car is behind a hill, and I can slowly begin to see the car's headlights, until the lights suddenly explode into view, much like a highway car-rise.  Sweet.
  4. I can sleep with half of my brain, like a dolphin, and I do it at work.  Okay, so I don't sleep with half of my brain, but I'm pretty sure parts of my brain go to sleep and the other parts work overtime or something because I have some weird thoughts while I'm working (for example, I was making up excuses the banana has for having three parts).  It's like my frontal lobe just disappears. Anyway, the work isn't very demanding, brain-wise, so while my hands act as an entire line assembly, my mind goes elsewhere, I think.
  5. I'm going to add almond extract to everything I consume.  Possibly my favorite smell/taste, up there with cherry, pineapple, ginger, and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
