- Rice cakes are actually pretty tasty, when properly frosted. Jul 9, 6:39 PM

- Some asshole assaulted me while I tried to eat lunch. Now I am shaken and hungry. Jul 21, 12:50 PM
- Oh god, I am miserably overfull. I am going to travel back in time 40 minutes and slap that burrito from my own hand before I can eat it. Jul 21, 1:30 PM

Ha! In their original Twitter form I missed the time travel burrito one (but saw the lunch assault tweet) and now I finally get the entire joke =)

Posted by: Nick on July 22, 2008 1:55 PMI just love your blog. You now also have the honor and distinction of being the ONLY person I know whose tweets are treats.
Posted by: erin on July 22, 2008 3:38 PMHaha! It took me a sec to connect the assault and burrito tweets. Nicely done.
Also, I am now going to use the word "pudding" as a scatalogical reference. I will anounce to my coworkers that it is "pudding time". Or I will let people know that I had a particularly runny pudding today. Or that my daughter got pudding all over the floor. Nobody else will have any clue that every time I say "pudding" I mean "shit". This will prove extremely entertaining to me for a while.
And then when I get bored of this game, maybe after a day or two, I will let people know what I've been doing. And I will again be gleefully entertained as I watch their expressions while they recall all of my recent "pudding" comments in their new scatalogical context.
