seriously, sometimes it drives me crazy not having control of my heat. i’m this close to making a late-night run to ikea to buy a fuzzy rug for the livingroom just to attempt to bring a wee bit of warm back into my apartment. i’m sure it’s just the boiler lagging behind the arctic front, but dammit… my feet are cold now!
i’m alone at home on friday night. it’s been a while since that’s been an occurrence. it’s all good, though. i went grocery shopping to fill the fridge with veggies, then went and got myself butter chicken as my “last meal”.
oh, don’t get so upset. sheesh.
i’ve decided that i’m going to attempt forgoing: wheat, dairy, coffee, sugar and alcohol for a while. i’ve already planned a bunch of stuff to make so i don’t starve, but i’m feeling pretty sure i’ll be hating this idea by the time i’ve been without caffeine for a couple of days.
i recognize that trying to do such a thing to my diet during holiday season is probably a little bit crazy. half of my rationale is that if i can cut out all that stuff from my regular, everyday diet, then i won’t be so bad off if i splurge on a bit during more festive moments. the other half is based on the complete shit i’ve been feeling lately and the realization that i no longer eat anywhere near as many vegetables as i’d like to.
honestly, i think the only thing (besides coffee) i’ll really miss is wheat. that’s no pasta, toast or buns around my burgers. that’ll really suck, but i still get rice and couscous and barley and popcorn, so i’m sure to make do just fine. it’s not like i’m going on the crazy cleanse everyone was doing in the spring (or was it summer?)… that didn’t allow soy sauce or anything with vinegar in it. now that’s just loco!
oh, yeah… i might miss cheese, too. mm, cheese.
anyway, i’m going to go catch up on episodes of project runway and pushing daisies while i have the night to myself. *smooch*
