The night I binged 14 episodes and forgot to eat dinner

Last Friday I sat down after work to watch one episode of that new crime show everyone keeps talking about. Next thing I know it's 11pm, my stomach is growling so loud I thought my neighbor could hear it through the wall. I had been so locked into the plot that I skipped dinner completely and only realized it when the episode ended on a cliffhanger. I got up to make a sandwich but then the next episode auto-played and I stood there in the kitchen doorway for a solid minute deciding what mattered more. The sandwich lost, obviously. I ended up eating stale crackers over the sink while watching two more episodes. Has anyone else had a show grab them so hard they forgot basic stuff like eating? How do you pull yourself out of that zone when the story is just too good?

The crackers over the sink. Been there, married that.
