Okay, so I know I promised I would blog last week. I just completely forgot, and then there was Thanksgiving break and I never really remembered. However, going back over the meal with a few friends, I was able to remember what I ate that day and I'm willing to tell you if you're still willing to read my blog.
So for breakfast last Tuesday I had another wonderful breakfast burrito, but this time with no salsa :( and it was still bacon and egg and it was still not very much food. For lunch, one of my friends stood in line in front of me and got a barbecue sandwich, which actually I love. I know I usually don't like pork, but when it comes with barbecue and it's in sandwich form I love it. However, I still don't ever eat it because it is pork and I'm not really a fan of eating pork products, as I'm sure most of you know by now. The lunch lady ran out of beans and ran to get chips, which turned out to be pretzels, which I'm quite fond of. Mmmmm... Carbs. Love it. Along with that came a milk and I'm pretty sure there were no other sides.
I'd like to talk about the break for just a moment. Sometimes, in my family, we become so incredibly lazy that we don't want to go grocery shopping or cook real food or anything healthy or normal, so instead we decide to eat out. And this happened quite a bit over this break. Not, of course, on Thanksgiving, though. Instead, we went to my aunts house and ate a crap ton of turkey and pie and other various foods. I learned that on average, people eat over 4,000 calories on Thanksgiving, NOT INCLUDING DESERT. Of course, I learned that from a family member and you can't always believe everthing everyone tells you. Of course, I'm not with a doctor and I haven't seen one in a few weeks so I google searched it. Of course, I knew the results would not be completely accurate, because if you can't believe what a living person right in front of you is saying, you can't believe what the internet tells you most of the time. However, most of the results I found said generally the same thing: that you eat around 4,000 calories and more if you include desert, beverages, and other food not included with the actually Thanksgiving meal. I can believe that, because I ate a lot of food and a lot of pie and I haven't been hungry since Thursday. Of course, I have been eating, but only in small amounts and usually only one to two meals a day. For example, Saturday I only ate dinner, which of course was at a restaurant. We went to Cracker Barrel and I got the cereal deal with a muffin (which I didn't even eat). Special K! I'd like to pretend that this was healthy, but it was the boring kind of special K and I put a few spoonfuls of sugar on top. :/
So this morning I slept in because of some problems last night and being extremely exhausted this morning. I would like to point out that this NEVER happens. I do not just decide I'm going to sleep in and miss a few hours of school because I'm tired. But I literally could not wake up, I was so tired. So of course I did not get breakfast at school. I did get to school before lunch, though, and got in line and got fried chicken with some sort of noodly salady thing and milk. Fried chicken is not my favorite meal. I like grilled chicken. But I suppose it was better than other things I've had since I embarked on this crazy cafeteria journey. The milk was chocolate, which was a total bonus. Usually I check to make sure the milk isn't expired, because I've heard horror stories of people taking a sip of their milk only to discover that it's been expired. However, today I completely forgot. While I do think it would make a good story to say that I drank expired milk, this was thankfully not the case. It was cold and delicious and perfectly safe from expiration.
P.S. I would like to explain that the highlighting did not show up while I was writing this and I had no idea it was there. Also, I have no idea how to get rid of it. You'll just have to deal with it.
