GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE RIGHT NOW: Pro/Con list

PROS

1. I will no longer be starving.
2. I can buy chapstick and then my lips won't hurt.
3. I can buy Advil and then my head won't hurt.
4. If I eat, I will both feel better and probably not instantaneously gain 20 pounds.
5. The store is only a 5 minute walk away, which won't kill me. Unlike starving to death.

CONS

1. I am terrified my card won't work and I only have 5 euros.
2. I will probably be glared at because I have an accent.
3. Maybe the cashier will be mean and I won't know if it's because she thinks I'm a tourist or just because she's French and this will cause an intense internal dilemma.
4. If I keep eating so much I will probably come home 2o pounds heavier, and my jeans fit perfectly as it is, so I will also come home a pants-free zone.
5. It is really cold.
6. I am afraid of spending money. What if I need it for something that's REALLY important, like shoes? And then I can't buy them because I wasted all my money on something as dumb as food?
7. Maybe the store isn't even open because it's Fete de la Victoire. Then I will have wandered around in the cold for nothing.

It may appear that I have more cons than pros. That's because I have more cons than pros. But thank you, Maslow's hierarchy of needs, for the fact that regardless of how many cons there are, just writing this post is making me hungrier and hungrier. So I'm going to end up going to the store anyways.

Yay.

Love,
