The 3rd Day

It seems that working two jobs tends to cut into time spent on the internet!

It seems I am going to be losing weight, because even though I had increased my physical activity, I seem to have picked up the habit of mindlessly eating, which I have brought my attention to, and as I will have less opportunities to eat (working retail doesn't give much alone time!), as well as working more of the time, means I will be slimmer quicker!

Welp.

I never knew how much baby food and supplies people bought before today; apparently its required to buy one piece of electronics equipment per metric ton of similac.

A lot of people enjoy Iron Man, as I had to hear many people explain how they loved the movie, and how I should see it, and how blu-ray makes the difference!

Oy gevalt.

Egg Salad

Wawa, I am disappointed.

How could you let me get this, a most bland and rubbery horror that, once I tasted it, made me instantly regret getting it? I say, I would have rather gotten a turkey sandwich, and that, for me, is saying quite a bit.

Unless it's the turkey and stuffing sandwich they have.

That's pretty good.

In any case, everyone is talking about how the economy is terrible and we're all going to be living in cardboard boxes a week from now and if we don't do something it will all be terrible!

Yeeeah.

Isn't it even more important, then, to focus on what you have right now? Then even little things will seem to be blessings; who knows, perhaps this economic crisis will actually teach some people the value of a dollar!

Or maybe we're all gonna be invaded by russia.

Which we will see.

From our house.

Job Search Part 2

Went in for my interview today, and I think it went pretty well, as I'm supposed to come back tomorrow!

I have the rest of the day off to relax, which is so great, because I have been closing at the pizza place for the past 8 days I've been working, which is not fun at all.

The sad thing is, I have no idea how to quit a job gracefully, as I've only ever been laid off or done temp work before...

Then again this is a problem you might want to have!

I went by the mall afterwards to do some shopping, but the only thing I ended up buying was an Auntie Ann's pretzel, which was sweeter than I remember them being (Pretzels are supposed to be salty aren't they?), what with it being just a normal pretzel.

I think it's time for a nap...

A Weird Dream

During last night, after a late dinner of ham salad sandwich, pepsi, and chips, I had the following dream (I swear I am going to become a vegetarian next year, or at least reduce suspiciously created meat product consumption!):

I woke up in my bed, and everything seemed pretty much to be normal. I turned on the news, and there was a report on some new animals that had shown up in the Chesapeake Bay; no one knew where they came from, but they appeared to be harmless. A picture was then shown, and it seemed to be some kind of jellyfish, but its tentacles were too thick, and they were used to grasp and pull themselves along, rather than poison animals.

Shortly after that, I started getting ready to go out with some friends, when we encountered a few in the forest next to my house; being the logical people we were, we ran back to the house, and got raincoats and wooden sticks to defend ourselves with. After a few of them got into our yard, I asked no one in particular, "What are these things, really?"

"They are direct competitors with us"

Just as the creatures started waddling towards us, I woke up.

I am never touching ham salad again.

Ham Salad?

Oh woe is me.

Whenever there are ready-made sandwiches available, do not go on the basis of assumptions.

I reached for a tuna salad sandwich, but then was distracted by the deli-worker, asking if he could help me with anything.

Then I grabbed what I thought was the sandwich.

Looks like it's time for a culinary experiment.

Chicken and Rice

It's a relatively simple dish, but also relatively easy to make, which I suppose is why it's generally included among comfort foods. With a vegetable (broccoli, in this case) to the side, it concisely provides protein, carbohydrates, and fat (Yes, you do need fat in your diet, albeit a controlled amount!)

Broccoli might not be number one on your list of favorite foods, but it contains essential nutrients that you could not live without. Similarly, the chicken has fat inside it, which tends to have a bad rap, but without it, you too would be at risk for malnutrition, or even disease; too much of either the vitamins, or the fat and carbohydrates, can cause harm as well.

It's all about balance, after all; it applies to everything in life, it seems.
