Vending Machines are Very Important

[kaitou]

Every year during Nano I accept certain things. I know that I will not eat healthy, in fact, I will barely eat at home. I know that I'll have no impulse control when it comes to 'research books.' And I know that I'll overboard on caffeine.

This year I went and got myself addicted to Red Bull. They carry it in the vending machine at work. And...it actually works, at least for me, and I don't even seem to crash afterward. But the problem is that EVERYONE likes Red Bull at work. So now that it's afternoon and I'm crashing faster than a propellerless plane, there is no Red Bull. Instead I got 'Monster.' And of course it's the Lo-Carb version, so it tastes NASTY.

I cry! Whyfore no Red Bull? And why does every last chocolaty snack in the vending machine have to have peanuts/peanut butter in it? Seriously, they have Pay Day, Snickers, Zagnut, Reese's Pieces, Peanut Butter Cookies, and Reese's Fast Break. I like peanut butter and chocolate, but dude, I just want the chocolate!

I would write more, but I think I'm going to hide under my desk and take a nap instead.

I have white chocolate with dried olive bits.

Benefits of being able to walk to Harvard Square.

Dang! Such jealousy! I ended up with a Rice Krispie Treat. No chocolate. No Red Bull.

In terms of energy drinks, the only one I really like is Bawls. Worth a try if you can find it in your area.

I've found one place with it. The only thing is that it's a coffee shop. And if I'm at a coffee shop, I might as well get coffee. Besides, they have an excellent honey latte that tastes almost like Honey Nut Cheerios.

I realize this post is a few days old, but I had to point out that I cannot find a Zagnut ANYWHERE around here. I used to love them when I was a kid and the thought of a vending machine containing them is like snacking Mecca.

Hope next time it's refilled without so many peanutty things. ^_^

I had never even heard of them. Shall I buy up the lot and send them to you? Maybe they can restock with Milky Way or something.
