I stayed up really late, because I took a huge nap until 10 PM. Now look at me. It's almost 6 AM. I feel like a real jerksquad.
Earlier tonight, I ate exactly three chocolate chip cookies. Then I received heartburn and was forced to medicate myself with Tums. Tums are actually pretty effective, and they taste like weak Sweet Tarts, which means they taste pretty good.
I am embarrassed to say that I have completely lost my momentum with Moby-Dick. I haven't been reading it regularly, at all, and, as a result, I am still about halfway through, even though I started reading it months ago. The good news is that I went to Nantucket with my family and got to see all types of cool stuff regarding Melville's magnum opus. I even went to the whaling museum and saw a huge sperm whale skeleton. Sperm whales are prodigious leviathans, and they can destroy you, if they so desire. I also saw a bent harpoon, alongside many straight harpoons and other whaling accoutrements. Very rusty and old and heavy. Also, they played this video about Nantucket, and it was very informative. I just became overwhelmed by an urge not to explain the video at all, so we'll just leave it at that.
We went to a restaurant, on Nantucket, called Queequeg's. Turns out it is not the type of place Queequeg would ever patronize. It's basically just a fancy bar that sells expensive burgers.
You know what's good on Nantucket? The pre-made sandwiches at Cumberland Farms. I was pleasantly surprised by this. Cumby's. So good. Tuna sammy. Not too shabby, if you ask me.
Hey, check it out: I have this new job where I work in a warehouse and get to wear a hard hat sometimes. It's awesome. Forklifts possess such strength. I can't believe it. If you engage in horseplay near the working forklift, you risk immediate squish-death.
