Hello. My name is Devon and i'm addicted to ice cubes..

For the past 48 hours I felt like a total ninja. Having to constantly use ice cubes was a pain in the butt. Hiding the yarn on my wrist wasn't as hard as I would have thought it would be. I never really realized how sneaky a person had to be in order to hide an addiction. Obviously they have to be good at lying to people straight to their face, but it kind of takes over your mind. The whole time I was thinking about what I was going to do next, if anyone had seen me, if my family knew I was up to something, if there was ice in the freezer, how I was going to get ice to school, how I could hide the sound of the ice from hitting the side of the glass. A million thoughts were always going through my head. Most of the time I was thirsty because I couldn't get to the freezer without anyone seeing me. In order to get ice cubes to school I put my insulated water bottle in the freezer over night. In the morning I put a full tray of ice in it, filled a lunchbox with ice packs and then stuck the water bottle in the lunchbox full of ice packs. It worked great!! They lasted all day and all night. The only problem was that I had to hide the lunchbox in my backpack and carry some of my books around all day.
I was the only person at my table that had figured out how to keep ice cubes frozen at school. I got sick of everyone asking if they could have some, so I decided to become an ice cube dealer. Most people paid me with starburst. It was fantastic!! We didn't want anyone to find out what we were secretly doing in the hallways between passing time so we decided to give the ice cubes a code name. We called it...Frozen Drizzle. Genius, I know.
Sneaking frozen drizzle at home was a lot harder than it was at school. You can see my kitchen from all of the main rooms in the house. The first time I was making ice, my brother snuck up behind me. When I turned around and saw him I dumped the unfrozen drizzle allllllllll over the floor..oops. When he asked me what I was doing I told him I was cleaning the ice trays like I do every month. I told him not to judge, but i'm pretty sure he did anyway. The look that he gave me when I told him though may have been the most awkward funny face I have ever seen anyone make. ever.
The next morning I had to wake up earlier than usual to get my morning dose of frozen drizzle, and pack some for the rest of the day. For some reason my dad also decided to get up extra early, which is so unlike him. Anyway, I had the lunchbox, ice packs, water bottle, and tray of ice cubes sitting out on the counter. He walked in the kitchen, looked at the contents laying out on the counter, and went on to ask if I was packing a lunch for myself. Why, yes dad! How did you know that my favorite lunch was a tray of ice with a side of red and blue ice packs?! no..I was clearly not making myself a lunch. But I lied and told him that I was making myself a lunch and he responded by saying, "Okay. See you after school." Oblivious much?! Maybe just a bit..
Overall though, I really enjoyed the experiment. :)
