today i made myself a new chicken pasta dish for dinner. i was pretty excited about it, using a new kind of seasoning and everything. as i was draining the pasta though, the handle on my pot broke off, and two-thirds of the noodles fell into the sink, which was full of dirty dishes. trying to make the most of the situation, i ate the remaining third, and then decided to try to fix the pot handle. when i went to grab the screwdriver from my toolbox though, i discovered that all the tools were rusty and gross, apparently having been left out in the rain at some point, or maybe taken into a bath. by the time the whole ordeal was over, i'd come up with a sort-of makeshift fix for the pot, my hands were covered in dirt and grease and rust, and i was still hungry.
