Go to sleep with the weight of the world, my little eagle
It got me. It got me again. It got me good! I thought I was eating it, but really the pizza ate me. I thought I had sucessfully avoided it all day, made smart choices; I bought myself some Healthy Choice Steamers TV dinners on the way home, had one, neatly wiped my mouth with a tidy solid napkin, and went to bed. I thought I fulfilled the days calories smartly—leave room for the late night vulnerabilities, I tells him. Ah, dear reader, the chump, he went ahead and exceeded it, at 4am, no less! It wasn't much—just a couple cookies on top of a pizza. Sleepeatin, it wasn't even 4am—'twas two thirty! His belly, the peasant, must be the size of Hong Kong. A city is way bigger than any human being. Ask anybody. Used to be, he'd awake at four from a disheveled slumber, check his stats, and simply take his reward, a slight cookie; or if lack thereof the page views, he'd eat the whole box. But what's his excuse now? Dreams trying to will on a computer game for more points because he can't come up with new material? Bigger than Chinatown, the size of a country. Shanghai nights, Congratulations.
