I have found my room to be extra cozy lately. And I'm also thinking I'm not going to take down my tree. Who cares that its past Christmas, and they aren't exactly year-round appropriate? I like it. Embarrassing: The "Plenty of Fish" website's commercial makes me smile. And I'm pretty sure I cried the first time I saw it. Hahah. Its so adorable!
I have watched many, many weird films in the past few weeks (cough, The Human Centipede, cough). But, I saw Black Swan (finally) tonight.. and I have mixed feelings about it. I liked it. Loved it, actually. But I think if I were to see it a second time, I wouldn't like it as much. The initial shock of it, the extreme anxiety, the uneasy feeling it gave me... I don't think it would carry over into the second time watching it. But of course, I don't know that. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'll like it even more the second time.
Its grandma night though.. and I'm afraid to tell her that I no longer eat meat, so every time she offers to make me something to eat, and it contains meat, I just say "ehh...no, I'm not that hungry.." but in all reality, I AM STARVING. hahaha, I'm so scared to tell her, for some reason.
(Ps it is day 3 of zero meat... and its killing me. I realized the other day that my fast food options are very slim nowadays. And Blake came over yesterday, and ate his beautiful looking Chinese food in front of me. Torture. But.. I can do this!)
We're just chillin out, waiting for the Craigslist Killer movie to start. I'm freaking psyched for this movie! She, on the other hand, is not quite as excited.
Tomorrow I'm surprising the little brother and going to eat lunch with him and his little 5th grade pals. I'd rather not, but if I don't, I won't do anything all day, and I'll feel beyond pathetic and unproductive. Not a cool feeling.

you are going vegetarian?!
ReplyDeletei'm vegetarian and i'm trying to go vegan and its super hard!
GOOD LUCK!!! let me know if you need help!
Your new layout is so cute :).
ReplyDeleteI have been vegetarian for three years now and let me just tell you, I started in the most veggie friendly town and am now in one that is not quite so friendly. As far as fast food goes, you can ALWAYS order a burger without the meat, some fries and a soda if you need some food. Just make sure they have the veggies on there and if you like cheese they can keep that too. Most places have salads and a LOT of thai places have veggie friendly options. Are you just cutting out meat or are you going full veg? If you're not worried about oyster sauce or chicken broth then there are tons of soups that are good too. While it's not good to completely rely on fake meats every once in a while they are helpful to tide over that craving. Maybe add some smart grounds into a taco with beans and rice. In fact, beans and rice will fill you up and it's a FABULOUS protein. I don't know if you like eggs but they are a wonderful source of protein too, especially if you take out at least one yolk (if you're having more than one egg). I got really creative when I went vegetarian. I would throw a bunch of veggies together with some rice and see what happened.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess I should ask, why exactly are you going veggie? I went veg as a challenge to myself because I thought I couldn't live without chicken. Then I started reading up on animal cruelty and things started to click more and more. But each person goes veg for a different reason and that shapes how their trials are going to go. If you need any suggestions on foods to make or any information shoot me a comment or an email!
Ahhhhhhhhhh I watched the Human Centipede too the other day. SO MESSED UPPPPPPPPPPPP!
ReplyDeleteYour room does look super cozy, love it!
