I've come a long way
It's just struck me how much I've changed since my youth. I'm just sitting here eating some Kit Kats. They are the fun size (misnomer). I used to eat it by breaking them apart, eating them one at a time. Now, I just eat it as if the whole were a bar. I think previously I was coerced by the 'Gimme a break' commercials of yore. Members of the commercials would say the line and then break one of the bars off. As I sit on my computer, watching American Idol on the couch I enjoy with my feet up after a long day of work and picking up Kelly from her dental extravaganza, I realize I need to eat Kit Kat differently. I don't have the patience to break off the bars. I want a candy bar, I'm gonna fuckin' eat one. FYI-Kit Kats are underrated by far. Simple. Enjoyable. Leaves you with a satisfying feeling when done. Moreso than Snickers in my opinion. Snickers, while it is a more hefty bar, and I do enjoy the nougat, but the peanuts are a stretch for me. They combine with the nougat and caramel to create a sticky, bumpy mixture in my molars.
By the way, cliches bother me. Not because I hate it when people use them but, in fact, just the opposite. I think sometimes when I'm trying to avoid a cliche I search and find words that may not be right simply to avoid the possible perfect phrasing of a cliche; catch-22. For example, I was thinking about describing the Kit Kats and saying how much I enjoyed the silky milk chocolate but then I didn't. It was cliche. But that's what it was to me. Go fig.
