Listography Nerd Gets Hungry

Today's post is a brainless one with no point.
Yup.

The other night I was super tired but couldn't sleep, so I started compiling a list of my favorite foods.  If there are two things that I have an unnatural amount of love for, they are lists and food.  All rolled into one..... it's a way to pass the time.

PRE-MADE SNACK STUFF
Italian Rose salsa

Spicy Cayenne & Cheese Kettle Cooked Lays (discontinued)
Krunchers BBQ potato chips
Munchies jalapeno cheddar sandwich crackers (previously Doritos branded)
Snyder's mustard & onion pretzels
Cashwes
Pizza Rools, three meat flavor
Tickle Me Pickles spicy dill pickle spears

ACTUAL FOOD
Grits, overcooked, with salt only

I have a weird palate.  And a weird way of passing the time.  But since I'm a geek about both lists and food, I found this post suitable enough.

Prologue

I tried the private blog for my innermost thoughts, designated for my eyes only.
I tried the public blog that was super structured and somewhat impersonal.

But I watched a movie recently, and I think I'm ready to handle the public free-form blog.
Here's what I've got going for me this time:

  • I'm no longer an angsty, whiny teenager.
  • I am reasonably skilled with spelling and grammar.
  • I'm honest, but not insensitive.
  • I've got quirkiness to spare, but not so much it's off-putting.
That being said, I'm not going viral anytime soon.  I have a few things going against me:
  • My life is far from drama-filled.
  • I'm not super smokin' hot with an Instagram packed full of scintillating selfies.
  • I've never been popular in any format, and I don't see the universe doing a 180 now.
  • I'm not as well versed as I could be in the realm of optimal exploitation of social media.
I guess I could beef those lists up a bit, but they both have four, making them even, so that looks nice.  I'll stop there.
