Today is Day 5 of the "No Meat for A Month" plan. Although the first couple of days without chicken, fish, beef, pork, or any other kind of "if it has eyes I won't eat it" were kind of hard, I think I've gotten into a pattern with this thing. I'm kind of conscious now of what exactly I'm dumping onto my plate. Maybe it'll make me a more conscious eater in future.
It's certainly hard to pass up chicken nuggets and spaghetti, but if they won't take the meatballs out of the sauce then that's not my problem.
If you're asking why I'm doing this at all, it's because I know I'M capable of lasting a month without real meat. Just for the hell of it. I was hardly eating the stuff anyway.
On other meatless fronts, the wireless on my laptop is operational, only three weeks and one day after I bought the thing! Yay! Now that's one less thing to worry about...I was beginning to think I'd never get the stuff working.
At the moment, it's really only being used for the times when I just don't want to sit in the chair and type. It may get to be more frequent-my back has been sort of painful lately, and I'm a little more comfortable parking it up in bed with pillows behind me. I'm just chalking up the body parts that go bunk, in order to give Dr. Kansari a full tally when I see him again after Christmas. Let's see: Fingers, wrists, right elbow, back, right knee...I say toss the parts that don't work and make me bionic so I can leap tall buildings. And fly. And go invisible.
Ah, hell. I just want to be Peter Petrelli...
Cheerio, all.
