dear tao

i walked to the convenience store last night to buy more fermented soybeans. i picked up the container and carried it to the cashier while reading the ingredients. they added bonito flakes to the recipe. i felt depressed and put the container back. then i saw dry roasted wasabi flavored soybeans and felt a little better. i stole six packages and ate one and gave the rest to a vegan homeless man and he said 'thanks'. then i went back to my room and there was an ugly fish in my bed and we layed together and talked about the health benefits of eating brewer's yeast.
