Mashed Potatoes


Blaine was in charge of making the mashed potatoes while at home for the break. It seemed symbolic in a way - mashing the potatoes and transforming them. They still maintained many potato qualities, but they were different. This was much like Blaine's experience with the graduate program. Transformed, but maintaining some qualities. Also Blaine felt like the past semester was one long experience of being beaten by a hand mixer.

"Maybe I won't be mashed potatoes as a result of this semester," thought Blaine. "Maybe I'll just be a couch potato for a while." Blaine laughed really hard at the joke. 

Blaine wasn't really that great at jokes. That was why they didn't say jokes out loud very often.
