Breakfast.

I've never been a fan of breakfast. Usually, I end up eating a burrito or soup for breakfast. However, working at the Cannon with a meal plan means that I end up eating breakfast in the Cannon Center on a frequent basis. And I think it's disgusting. The eggs have what look like water bubbles in them. The fruit looks weird. The sausage greasy. None of it looks very appetizing, and I can't even fall back on cereal because the milk comes out of the most disgusting plastic tubes I have ever seen.
This is besides the point. The point is that breakfast is even worse when I have to eat it on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday. It's on these mornings when Lindsey works the register. And it's these mornings when the last thing I really want to do, in order to eat the most disgusting breakfasts ever, is to pass the girl that Dave is pursuing, and have her smile at me sweetly, and tell me that my dress is cute or mention that we have the same middle names... I don't care. I wish she'd go away. I wish that she'd work in the back all the time and leave me free in the mornings.
Again, I don't want Dave back. Maybe nobody really believes this, but it's true. I didn't like where it was going. I don't like Dave like that anymore... But it's still hard to know that he broke up with me and is now pursuing her again. Sure he says that he didn't break up with me to date her, but when less than 48 hours after dumping me he's texting her again, it doesn't make you feel that way.
The worst part is that I know that he was going on dates with her before we started dating, so really, to her I am the other woman. But to me, she's the other woman. Ultimately, she won. And she knows it! It just embarrasses me. I was embarrassed when he chose me over her, but she was never around. She was at the Hill Cumorah Pageant. I have to walk by her 3 times a week or starve. And it sucks. It sucks. Really, I'm just mad that Dave has someone to date and I don't.

I always thought your Ramen for breakfast was... odd.

Just steal the food. Hands down you could take her.

Dear Jessica. I just got off of a ten day trip and am exhausted - your blog made my day.

First of all your new picture totally matches your title - i love it.

Secondly thank you for blogging. You are such an honest and fun author.

Thirdly I think on those horrible breakfast days you should find a new boy each time and walk in holding hands flirting.

Fourthly Your mailbox story is incredible!!!! I am super jealous that you have the wits and courage to do that. did he ever find out!? How badly I wish I could have been there.

Fifthly to have the mailbox experience alone is enough reason to be in Provo for the summer instead of Wales. :)

Love you. Miss you and can't wait for more fun tales.
