TAN #177: Crazier than the Calgary STANpede ... (Page 52)

Hiya, livin' the dream :-)

Good morning/evening Yanti!

Why, my sweet little big-gun Cordlet

No bacon, sadly. I had some ham I was thinking of cutting into it, but it's been in my fridge a while and I can't remember how long.

Cheri chapstick

Hiya Sir Cursey.

How you be on this RIOTous day?

Now would be a perfect time to cook it up.

But it scares me!

I think I'll give some to the dogs, and if they don't die, I'll fry the living hell out of it and then eat it.

New day, new attitude.

Yesterday was rough to keep composed.  And to top it off, some kids in a car threw something at me during my run.  It was something minor, and it barely touched me and I barely felt it, but that kind of stuff gets me ANGRY.  I picked up a rock and ran with it the next mile or so hoping they would try it again.

sometimes, i just hate people.

what is even the point of throwing things at a stranger?  i don't understand.

Mofos. WTF?

Glad you're in a new and better day, dear Gym.

I had to throw out so much food yesterday.  The wife asks for fresh produce (and sadely, I don't eat enough) so it just goes bad.  $20 of fruit went into the trash last night after finding mold over everything.

Yelling too.  I mean, it startles me since I'm not expencting it.  And not sure why they want to yell curse words at a stranger minding their own business...

That get's me mad enough to pick up a rock as well, but usually just keep on running.  This time, I stopped, turned to identify the car and stood there daring them to come back and even considered turning around.

i just don't remember throwing stuff at people being impressive or fun.  i mean, i've thrown plenty of stuff at my own friends hanging out having fun...but just driving by a random dude and chucking some garbage out of my car?  that makes ZERO sense.

Mornin Kido.  I got hit with a bag of fast food trash by some kids one morning.  I turned and hit their car with my water bottle that I carry on my runs.  I've never understood where someone would think that's a right thing to do.

Moldy produce - ugh.
I've decided I won't buy salad ingredients anymore. I will spend $5 for a lunch salad at the work cafeteria a few times a week over buying $10+ of salad ingredients and forgetting about them in my fridge. Works out much better for me.

Fruit I will remember to eat most of the time, but I buy it in VERY small amounts. Like 2 bananers, or 2 nectarines, or dump out half the bag of cherries/grapes into another before putting it in my cart.  

i have the same issues with salads, especially the lettuce.  never stays crispy and fresh and i end up tossing a ton of it.  i do buy a week's worth of fruit at a time because most of it is robust enough to survive, but my husband and i eat a ton of it.  i know what we use and only buy that - if i let him buy it's always way too much or too little.  at the end of the week i convert mushy fruit to other stuff -- smoothies, topping for pancakes, applesauce, etc.

Yeah, I don't get it...  Or see the joy in it.

I've done it. It was fun when I was 15 and stoned.
