These are my pants. They are ranting.

Day 2.5, healthy time hootenanny

Oh yeah!!

Yesterday I ate so goodly - lots of veggies and hummus and cranberry water.    No pizza, no alcohol, no sleep aids (had a bit of time getting up this morning though, I think my body is like "yo, where the bagels at?")   And, my fabulous roommate, who we'll call Gerbil (because in real life, one of her names sounds like a small fuzzy pet) told me that my goal of losing 2 lbs a week is very realistic.   She said that I have to find a way to cut out 1000 (or 700?) calories.   Now I just have to figure out where those calories were/are, and how many I'm burning here and there.

I WALKED to work today, too.  So!  I'm going to save money on the ole Metrocard also.  So there fatty mc fat pants!

Again, with the eating/living better

So, on the second day of no pizza and no alcohol, my roommate, whom I'll refer to from now on as Mr. Kotter, comes home and immediately pops a frozen pizza (the best kind) into the oven.  And you know what it smells like in here now? 

Pizza.

I have to go for a work.  I have to call my sponsor.

In North Carolina...

In North Carolina, you can smoke in a food place, and give yourself and everyone else around you lung cancer..

... but gay marriage isn't allowed.

One kills people.

In North Carolina...

They have a restaurant called "Cheeburger Cheeburger"

Does anyone else see anything wrong with that?  Way to facilitate southerners sounding ignorant by dropping letters for no good reason.   People kept saying to me "yeah, but it's supposed to be really good."

I don't care how good it is, it's freakin "Cheeburger Cheeburger"!!

Its getting hot in here

YAY!

The "heat" has been changed back from A/C to actual heat.  I can't wait to feel my nose while I"m sleeping.

A night of seven blankets

Let's talk about a huge condo.  Let's talk about that huge condo having a... malfunctioning or not easy to operate heating system.   It could be user error, it really could be, but last night, as I assembled the bed, I was shaking so hard I think I pulled a muscle.   I topped the bed with about 7 blankets, and when the boy got in he had his winter hat on.  Yes, winter hat.   It was so cold that brushing teeth was like water torture.   Body heat is a beautiful thing, but once I rolled out of the snuggle zone so I could slobber and toot in the opposite direction, I began to freeze again.   The vent that was supposed to expel heat blew frigid air directly on our heads every 5-10 minutes. 

This morning, I let the sun in and it helped - and when we returned from breakfast it does seem a bit better, but I'm a firm believer that its all relative and that tonight we'll return to our meatlocker for sleep again.

A Cuban Thanksgiving

• Fried turkey rubbed with cajun spices
• mac and cheese homemade and crispy
• fried apples... wait, baked apples
• potatos baked in the oven with olive oil and herbs
• black beans, oh yum
• rice
• stuffing with apples and some other stuff in it
• sweet potatos with marshmallows of happiness
• homemade pumpkin pie
• apple pie
• pumpkin pie
• DIRT pie
• wine

So good, all of it.  So fat right now.

And now, at (Frankie don't be mad, I have no idea what the plans are for the rest of the time...)a hungongous condo-y beach house in Carolina Beach, watching Grey's Anatomy, drinking wine, with the boy's family and having an all around great time.

Feeling really happy right now.  Fat, but happy.

This is way too early to be up

It's 3:28AM, we're about to head out the door.   To Newark to catch our flight.   All cars are booked so we're taking out regular cab chances before having to go mass tran.   This should be a very interesting day of travel.

I love turkeys

And I love eating them.

I'll be eating like a fat bitch soon enough!

Baby carrots my asshole

I hate that my baby carrots aren't babies at all, they're just big fat stupid normal carrots chopped down and shaved.   I'm not an idiot, Organic Farm of assholes.
