I stole a plate from the cafeteria. Ask me anything.
Normally, I'm pretty good about this whole "following the rules business, but today, for some reason, I just don't care. Fuck 'em. I paid for the sandwich, I'm appropriating the plate, too. :shrug:

Ask me things.

5. My sister graduated from Indiana University
Food services used special plates and cups with the IU logo on it. She knows a lot of people with IU "china" service for eight.

I used to work for Chi-Chi's. Most of the people I worked with had a fully stocked bar service. Maybe they were the same people?

8. Same for airline employees.
Especially the little crystal salt & pepper shakers they had in TWA's first class.
I have "service" for 12.

11. We have a conveyor belt in one of the cafeterias,
but they have trash cans too. I was trying to garbage away when I accidently just dumped the whole tray, plates and all, into the garbage. :)

20. Bad, bad child!
Actually, I just like saying that kind of stuff now that I'm a mom. I think you should repurpose it for some kind of art piece or the like.

Glasses, plates, silverware.

39. I went downstairs to get something to eat.
I didn't feel like sitting and eating it there and I didn't have any other container with me, so I took the sandwich and the plate back upstairs. :shrug:

41. Perhaps. If the spirit moves.
Truth is, I eat in the dorm with increasing rarity these days and with only three weeks left of school who knows. I sometimes stop there on the way back from class but with the plate in my room that's not very conducive to returning it. :)
