Timing is of the Essence
At college, there is sometimes neither the time nor the urge to eat properly. This was illustrated to the Java City Night Club when Camille confessed that she had eaten nothing but cookies the entire day. This is not that unusual. What follows is.
Joel, Camille and I are walking back from JCNC chortling about covered bandwagons. Camille makes a comment about something being a tough cookie. Crumbly, even. I suggest that it has been sitting on the table for a week, but Camille is really the expert since all she has eaten today are cookies. Right on cue, (we are talking unbelievably excellent time here) someone walks by, carrying a large tray. Before any of us registers what is on the tray he says, "Cookies?" None of us can retain our composure, and we all laugh our heads off while this kid looks at us like we are crazy. We eventually calm down enough for Camille to take a cookie.
What can we learn from this anecdote? Two things. Random guys with cookies are always funny. Eat healthy, otherwise you will go crazy.

For some reason, this post reminds me of Microserfs (by Douglas Coupeland). Perhaps it is your writing, or perhaps it is because cookies are a flat food.
