Cravings

In the past, I've always associated cravings with food. I define a craving as a strong desire to taste something. And, you can taste anything. Why is revenge sweet? Why, when someone is so cute, you just wanna "gobble them up!"? What is the taste of Freedom?

Cravings extend far beyond the necessities of nutritional consumption. Far beyond food cravings. Granted, there are things I want to eat on specific days, with specific moods. But today, food doesn't matter to me. Just as long as I have it. If it really does storm tomorrow, I want to come home after school and work to find a cabinet stock-full of food. The ailment? Grocery shopping.

Grocery Shopping: $100
Gasoline: $14.50
Car Wash: $5

Total: $119.50

Spendy spendy is all I can say.
p.s. Obviously, I spent money on other stuff too, not just groceries. When I get home, I'll make you a detailed list.
