ya know, in those commercials, when they tell you to "behold the power of cheese"? ...i think you should. so the other day, im unassumingly standing in the grocery store when i happen to glance over my shoulder at the "Budweiser" display. (which always features Tostitos and cheese dip somewhere in the near proximity to benefit the lazy male species and their football rituals.) all of a sudden, i have tunnel vision...and like in the movies, all other sounds begin to fade out as an angelic aura and golden glow forms around the cheese dip. "uhhh...mom, i need some cheese dip...err...just because. i need...cheese." (of course my mother, who you would think was put on this earth to moniter my waistline 60% of the time, immediately began to questions my motives) "Laura, why do you need cheese? we dont have chips at home. We dont need chips at home. You dont need cheese..." (but of course, all other sounds have been blurred, therfore i dont even hear her aloud justifications as to why i dont need cheese) ...and the cheese magically made its way into our cart. now, whether mom was/is aware she purchased the cheese that day is beyond my knowledge. and how the cheese ended up in the cart is also unknown. but one thing i do know is...the powers of cheese are far too underestimated.
