I don't remember whether we ever mentioned the Bread Bowl concept, but if we did, this is Bread Bowl Redux.
So, a couple weeks (months?) ago, Derek was eating a bread bowl during lunch, and he happened to comment on using a bread bowl as a metaphor for society and how we're eating society or something. Today, Derek abandoned our lunch table (which has moved over apparently) to sell tickets for Frosh Cab. However, Rebecca was eating a bread bowl, and she asked Anita, Becca, and me about the bread bowl metaphor. Anita, having only joined the debate, wondered why we would be eating up society, what do we do once the bread bowl has been emptied, is the soup the people and the bread itself the remnants of society? Rebecca and I had no idea what the answers were. Derek's metaphor could use some explaining; I don't think Ms. Carillo would accept it as an appropriate comparison.
Well, as lunch began to end, I was walking to my locker when I came upon Derek selling tickets. On the podium thing in front of him was, yes, a half empty bread bowl.
Happy Birthday (*cough*), Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Festivus (is that the correct term?), and I hope 2009 is good =)

I doubt that you were saying happy birthday to me, since you don't really know me, but thank you anyway! (My birthday is December 26)
I know you from this blog, but that's about it. My friend's birthday was yesterday, which was what I meant.
But Happy Birthday!!
