I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Turkey Burger would have been good. Instead I have grilled chicken fast food sandwich (Whataburger), but the bonus is that the company paid for it today. WHOOT!

Happy birthday, Jessica!

Happy anniversary, sj and TCG!

Except that seems like a lot of work. Why can't I have a JARVIS?

I need a JARVIS so much. My life would run so much better if I had one.

Why are all you people talking about lunch? It's breakfast ... oh right, I've reverted to a semi-nocturnal schedule again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had a grilled cheese and tomato that was just fine.

The nursing homes were... nursing homes. Apparently the place my mother went without me was a million times nicer, so I said we should just settle on that, barring an emergency.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Now that I know anxiety is a symptom of a food allergy thanks to my mushroom misadventures

Wait, what? It is? Hell, maybe I'm allergic to ALL food, considering I'm anxious about 100% of the time.

So far my lunch is animal crackers. Which I had to confiscate from the cat who was standing on the table with her head in the bag scooping them out. Most landing on the floor where her accomplice awaited to Hoover them up.

I needed that laugh.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I had homemade chili, yogurt, and an apple for lunch. It was perfect, as today is windy, gray, with a cold rain forecast for the evening. No idea what I'll have for dinner.

I had Noodles and Co, but I'm kinda wondering where to eat dinner, since I have to drive across Iowa tonight.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

HOLY CRAP, Google's logo today is a birthday cake that links to my G+ profile.

I am both delighted and a little terrified.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got myself out of the house, and checked out a local tire place, where the owner was very nice. He has to order the tires, though, so they don't get in until maybe 10:30 tomorrow.

After, since I was out that way anyway, I went to Penzey's Spices and picked up some Berbere powder which should add considerable ZING to my homemade Lamb Helper. Then, TJ's for general purpose Stuff. They now have a house-brand cultured coconut-milk "yogurt" so I'm giving them a try, since it's $0.50 less than the comparable So Delicious.

Wait, what? It is? Hell, maybe I'm allergic to ALL food, considering I'm anxious about 100% of the time.

It can be a symptom of a severe allergic reaction. It took me a really long time to figure out that I was having anxiety attacks and other weird reactions not long after eating. Eventually I narrowed it down to mushrooms, and now I don't feel like I'm going to die after I eat lunch. Progress!

True food allergies are less common than food intolerance, so... that seems unlikely?
