I have a craving for cereal

This past week I had a strong, powerful craving for cereal. It started out with a lust for Cinnamon Toast Crunch and progressed onto Reese’s Peanut Butter Cereal and a multitude of many other cereals. I haven’t eaten cereal since the early days of college and haven’t really thought about it since then, but for some reason I decided it was time for a bowl. I finally went to the grocery store after three days of a constant craving and made my way to the cereal aisle. I found my first dark mistress: Cinnamon Toast Crunch. They only had those big, huge boxes that parents buy when they don’t want to cook for their kids but feel too guilty attaching a feedbag of sugar to their faces. I was ready to grab my box and head to the checkout lane when I noticed the price: $5.68. That much for a box of air with some cereal in it? Screw that! I’m cheaper than cheap and I think I can make better use of that $5.68, like buying two 40 oz bottles of beer. After all, Trix are for kids and I’m a full grown, responsible adult now. This weekend you’ll find me in my boxers, watching Spiderman, drinking beer, and not eating cereal. Being an adult is the best.
