December 1, 2004 | My name is Grumplestiltskin

Some days are flawless, seamless; every need is met, unexpected joys abound, and the minutes and hours flow effortlessly as you luxuriate in the blessing that is life.

Some days are dark and rainy and cranky; everyone grumps at everyone else, an unexpected bill for far too much money arrives on the tail end of the holiday spending and the realization that tuition is due today, and you find yourself in the kitchen screaming at inanimate objects (”Cool Whip! Why are you frozen?! I need sugar DAMMIT!”).

Let’s pretend I’m having the first sort of day. Thanks.

   And why can’t you chip some of the frozen cool whip off and pop it in your mouth?

   I’m picturing you huddled in the closet, licking a frozen tub of Cool Whip. Mmmmm, Cool Whip.

   I LOVE frozen Cool Whip…it’s kindda like light frozen ice cream. I’m agreeing with Janet: chip off a chunk and munch on it a bit.

    Must be one of those days all around. If I hear myself say “please stop whining” one more time today I’m afraid I’ll implode.

    Am I the only one who hates Cool Whip? Thank God my son is allergic to some of the ingredients, and I never have to have it in the house again.

    Now, Dream Whip - in years past, I would eat that. Talk about gross now, though.

    Anyone want to join me at the fridge? I’ve got a few cans of spray REAL whip cream.
