– Did I know I was in for a rough day when I was woken at 5 AM by the sound of thunder and a torrential downpour? No. Did I know I was in for a rough day when a news reporter at 6 AM explained that radar had picked up a tornado over Staten Island moving toward Brooklyn? No. Did I know that I was in for a rough day at about 8 AM when I heard that all of the subways were flooded out sounth of Canal Street, affecting enough lines to make one hell of a Scrabble combination? No. No, I knew I was in for a rough day at 7 AM, when I was halfway into a bowl of cereal, looked down, and noticed about six little bugs floating in the milk. This has happened to me twice in my life, and oddly enough, it’s always happened with Raisin Bran.
