lunes...

        that it certainly has been. let me tell you, i'm gonna need to make some life changes pretty soon here. either that or switch up my comfort food. i've been eating way too much ice cream. it's so good, though. all i need now is my cat to come lick my bowl and i'll be happy. tonight i made my chicken with this italian marinated stuff. so good. then i poured some of that over steamed broccoli and carrots and sprinkled some feta and provolone and mozzarella over it. so good.

        i'm not quite sure what's been going on, but it's just been absolutely insane. the last two weeks have felt like i'm learning to breathe with only one lung. and i'm not sleeping. one night i tried to sleep on the floor to see if it would help. not so much.

        i have so much work to do. i'm going to fail all my classes.

        so my mom sent me another joke. i laughed:

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England.

In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.

The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day!

The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as...

Sinko de Mayo.
