Can ya smell me from wherever you are?
***********************************************************************************
Okay, I'm clean again. I was having one of those lazy weekends where you throw your hair back and neglect showering. Well that was yesterday. I am clean now, my friends!
I haven't eaten yet today and I'd like to keep it up as long as possible.
I will distract myself with all kinds of shenanigans.
I will not eat today.
I will not eat today.
There is a robin building her nest on my porch. Its so cute! Except we're moving in 5 weeks, so unless she can lay eggs, raise her babies, and vacate it by the time we move, the nest won't be able to stay there. :( I've lived here for two years, and only NOW the robins are noticing my empty plant-holders??! I wish I could leave it there. I hate to leave her homeless. She's probably pregnant too. God I'm such a bitch. Leaving a pregnant homeless single mom out to dry. I'm like some sort of Scrooge.
My turtle is staring me down. And my frogs are probably hungry. I need to go get them some crickets, and get out of the house to distract myself from food! Only I hope driving past food places won't be too much of a trigger. I need to bring a bottle of water and take a swig every time I get the impulse to binge.
Remember kids, control today equals lower scale digits tomorrow!
But I want a gyro and french fries so bad!
Must....say....no......
You know what makes it easier to say no? Convincing myself that saving $7 by NOT eating out today is a good thing. I'm moving and my new apartment is more expensive so I have to save money. Plus the yellow stripe in my bracelet means to always be saving money, and I can only buy things I NEED today. (You hear that, Emily? NEED. No one NEEDS fast food!)
I apologize for the random ridiculousness of this pointless post (hey, alliteration!) but I'm finally in what someone may call a "good" mood, and I'm all over the place. And I'm trying to do everything in my power to distract myself from useless food. (I should make some coffee.)
Wish me luck! Maybe I'll update later on my brilliant rockstar success!
Failure is NOT an option today!
peace out!

Ha, how sweet. We have crows everywhere now. Big mean suckers. Keep the bag of crickets on your lap, or atleast on the seat right next to you while you drive... good appetite killer.
My gecko eats em too. Yum.

I hope today went well and you were able to avoid food! I'm sure you did :)
I love lazy weekends. Luckily my hair doesn't show signs of greasiness too much haha!
omg yes WHAT is with the teeth falling out dreams??? I get them a lot. Apparently it signifies you're keeping a secret but I don't think I believe that bullshit. Who isn't keeping secrets? My most frequent nightmares concern toilets. Toilets without doors, having to go to the toilet in a public place, dirty toilets, breaking the toilet...no idea what that's about. Anal personality perhaps, or is that too easy?
I used to have mega gum addiction-I'd typically have about 6 different flavoured boxes in my bag at any one time and was obsessed with finding new flavours. That obsession hasn't returned to me yet oddly.
Hope your food avoidance is going well. Your apartment rings to mind Dr.Dolittle, or a nature reserve. How many animals are in there?? xx
