again with the fruit (insert tom cruise joke here)

oh, tom cruise...so i just went grocery shopping, which of course means i have something to talk about. again, deciding to be somewhat healthy, i looked to buy a container of strawberries. but yet again, they were all rotting, smushed, and gross. there was one good pack, but there was also a feather inside it on one of the strawberries. thanks, but no thanks. and i know i know, strawberries are "out of season." my response is this: if they're out of season, then dont buy them and try to sell them to me. if you put it on the shelf, then i can complain about it. like that one time, when my whiskey (found on the shelf) was contaminated:


but it wasnt a total loss. i found this slow churned, rich and creamy, cherry chocolate chip ice cream. other than my lactose intolerance, i think i'll enjoy it. dicta does not tolerate lactose!

and speaking of fruit, i just saw the most hilarious commercial for the sylvan learning center. the scene is a group of boys sitting in a circle, as one reads a book. the reader in the commercial then proudly proclaims, "i used to be afraid to read out loud in class, but now i read to all the guys!" hmmm, a bunch of guys sitting around at a sleepover reading books to each other. dr phil would be proud, but then again, he's an ass.
