Am now very full of maki sushi and iniri. Am not now allowed to take a nap. Damn the man.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Now I want inari. I seriously doubt there is anywhere that I can get sushi today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just read something about a high school club that met in the "Oral Arts Room." I'm sorry, but that is way too dirty for teenagers. I can't even imagine.

Y'know, I love supermarket sushi. Is it the best I've ever had? No, of course not. But it has increased the accessibility of it, making it possible for me to get sushi damn near whenever I want it. That alone is good enough for me.

Hmmmm. Sushi's not an option for me tonight. Maybe a tuna sandwich, instead? Not the same thing, I know.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Supermarket sushi makes me feel dirty, and not in the really good way. But I still buy it reasonably often, because it's better than no sushi. It's just that it reminds me how mind-blowing good sushi really is. And there's never enough yellowtail.

I can't believe I used to eat pretty good sushi out twice a week and really good sushi once every couple months. Damn. I guess that's the same chick who polished off the Oban.

Today's sushi was from the local high-end grocery store. I was going to try Target's sushi, but it doesn't get delivered till 10 AM, and I was needing to pick it up at 8:30 am.

Favorite sushi story: We were at a restaurant, and a friend unfamiliar with the trappings of sushi had gotten a large serving of wasabi. He'd loaded up his spoon with it, and I saw him about to eat. "Steve, that's not guacamole!" I said half a second too late.

Poor Steve.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think Trader Joe's sushi is awesome! And Dominicks sushi is mediocre!

A fish that makes fantastic sushi if you can get it? Snapper. Trust me on this.

And now I leave work and go to the gym, where lo, there is no sushi.

Now I want wasabi. I guess I'll just have to burn my face off with my green curry leftovers tonight.
