Would you like fries with that?

Lunch was...weird today. Jason and I ate lunch at the pasta place in the mall. I couldn't believe it, he ate 3 full servings of lasagna and almost an entire pizza. I asked him what was up with that, and he said he's just been REALLY hungry lately. He said, it's weird because, no matter what he eats, or how much of it he puts away, he's still left with that itch. Like it didn't quite “hit the spot”.

Apparently, he's not the only one with a healthy appetite. I swear that almost everyone in the food court today had a table full of food in front of them. I've never seen so many people packed in to that tiny food court. It was kind of a pain too because I actually wanted a burger and some fries, but none of the restaurants in the food court had any ketchup. The guy at the corn dog place said they haven't been able to keep ketchup all weekend. It disappears almost as soon as they put it out.

When we went back to the car, I noticed that there was that same, grey film on Jason's car that I've been seeing on everything outside for the last couple of days. It's almost like a greasy, powdery type of film. Maybe even a soot. It washes off easy enough, but it makes me paranoid. I'll be mad if I end up with “black lung” or some other obscure disease. It's been cloudy the last couple of days and there have been really big wildfires out west this week, so maybe it has something to do with that. Who knows.

Anyway, I've got to head out to the disaster recovery site soon. I've got to remember to take an overnight bag with me because I'll be stuck there all night. Fun! :(
