Rooting

I've scheduled a haircut for Saturday morning--my second cut since August 2008. I love how long it is in back, but these layers have got to go. The different lengths don't cooperate with each other and the whole thing looks terrible from my ears down. This should be the cut that makes everything all one length. Finally! Monday, it's goosepoop night again with nottygypsy. I'm amazed at the length of my roots after only two and a half weeks. My hair is suddenly growing very fast. I've got a quarter inch of roots showing already.

This is day two of my own personal Eating Hell. I got home late last night (11:00 p.m.!), and I made myself two scrambled eggs. When scrambled eggs taste like heaven, I am really hungry. This morning, I can't bring myself to open (and eat) the tuna packet, so I must not be desperate enough yet. So far today: a very few almonds and one mug of black coffee. My life is ashes.

I've got to get something in the slow cooker tomorrow. We have hardly any easily-edible meat in the fridge (poor mckitterick is already feeling the effects of my restricted eating plan). Tonight I'm making spinach-garlic soup with one of the turkey legs I nabbed from KCRF. Yay for leftover turkey legs in the freezer. If it turns out well, I'll post my recipe.

Yay for hairs cut! I'm dying to cut mine but scared to death of what could be the result. I just want a lil bob sort of thing... sort of. :)

oh man, can you not even put salsa-ish stuff in the eggs?
That suxxxxxxxx.

How about spices? Hot paprika is my friend when it comes to bland food.

I'm avoiding anything that comes out of a can or a jar. Spices should be fine, but I haven't had time to cook yet.

I hadn't really thought about it, but I'm pretty cautious about cans, jars and especially (ugh) boxes, but I am very lax about things like salsa I buy from Global Cafe or bring home from leftover Mexi food downtown.
It could be just as bad, although I'm confident Rafael at the Global Cafe doesn't use corn syrup or crappy fillers.

Right now I'm not even supposed to eat fruit or certain vegetables because of high sugar content. So even if there's no HFCS, all sweeteners are off my list.

That certainly does cut out a lot of food for consumption.

My sympathies.
Back to eating like a cat?

Of course, if you're one of my cats, that means yakking it back up with a hairball later.
