Sunday: I remember I have leftover Kung Pao chicken and eat that. Monday. I leave the chicken thighs in the fridge while Googling recipes for chicken thighs and what the sell by date really means while waiting for a Door Dash pizza delivery.

Tuesday night: Google more recipes for chicken thighs and the benefits of home cooking verses eating ultra processed foods while making my grocery shopping list for healthy whole foods while eating a meatball sub and a bag of Cheetos I bought at Sheetz on my way home from work.

Remembers that consuming ice cream or any dairy product in the evening causes me to vomit. Looks at the sell by date on the large package of chicken thighs I just bought and realize I must cook them by tomorrow.
