Today I had leftover chicken pot pie for lunch. It wasn’t too terribly awful for me so afterwards I decided to make lunch terribly awful by dipping vanilla wafers in a tub of peanut butter (I KNOW! So awful).
Oh, and before we move on to the rest of the story and I please, PLEASE tell you how much I hate calling those things mentioned above by their real name… “Nila” wafers? It makes me cringe. It’s like nails on a chalkboard and most definitely on the list of words I hate. It is for this reason I call them vanilla wafers- even if I’m wrong.
Anyway, I had about 6 vanilla wafers with peanut butter- straight out of the tub- and thoroughly enjoyed every awful second of it (until they were gone and I felt fat). It was at that point that I began to complain about my crappy eating choices.
I got in the car and headed back to work. It was on my way back I discovered I had several smears of peanut butter all over my right knuckles.
Like a kid.
Or a psychotic out of control binge eater.
Who gets peanut butter caked on their knuckles!? Who aside from the aforementioned categories!?!
It’s like having dorito crumbs tucked away in your neck fat, or dropping jelly on your shirt and licking it off. It’s awful. And desperate.
So-
as if that weren’t bad enough, instead of doing the normal, adult, 26-year-old-thing and taking a napkin and wiping the smeariness off, I stayed true to fat camp kid protocol-
licked it off,
and kept on driving.

Hi, My name is Lyna, and I am 31 years old. I too like to eat peanut butter right out of the jar using random cracker, cookie, or pretzels which are on hand. I too get peanut butter on my knuckels, and like Britt, I also lick it off. I will now start my 12 step program, maybe....
