Ah the funs of getting old.
I used to have a cast iron stomach. And then when I was like 28 its like my body said
“Hey! We found this button marked ‘Acid’ and we are gonna keep pressing it because it sounds awesome!”
Ugh.
Whenever I see a house fire I think back to when I was 17. I was heading to the bus to go to school. As I got there I saw black smoke in a thick column towering into the sky. There was a small house on fire. Firefighters were already on hand. I had barely been at my stop a few minutes and my bus arrived and I had to leave. I assumed the firefighters had everything under control.
I found out a few days later that a young girl, maybe 19, and her grandma died in that house fire. Realistically, I know there was nothing I could do. Hell I arrived long after the blaze was underway. But there was still a part of me that wished I could have done something. Gotten there early. Rushed in. Saved the day. Saved them.
I never even knew them, I never even met them.
But whenever I see a house on fire, I still think of them.
Though I was hanging out with Matt Smith and not on some kinda crazy adventure with the Doctor.
But still…
My weight is steady in decline. Despite eating kinda poorly this weekend my weight is still a pound less than last tuesday. Overall dieting is really working. Its awesome to see results.
Im down almost 10 pounds from when I joined the gym about a month ago. My next goal is to get under 250. Currently at 265.
I actually have some extra cash after bills this month. So thats good.
I feel like Im constantly short of breath and my stomach simply gets in the way of things some times…
Also I worry about my heart. I mean, im sure its fine, but I worry. And Ive known people who have had hart attacks around my age and I dont eat all that well.
So yeah.
Tonight for dinner I wanted to re-create KFCs Chicken Bowls.
Made some mashed potatoes, from instant. Still came out really good. Mixed in corn into the potatoes.
Heated up some popcorn-chicken mini bites in the skillet. Added some BBQ sauce once they were warm.
Then made some green beans as a side.
Took a large wide bowl, basically a round Chinese Food dish that we saved, plopped the tatoes and corn in the middle, some beans on the side, and then the chicken bites on top. Add a little more BBQ sauce, and BAM!
Came out really good. And very filling.
Yeah I can cook. :-)
New computer time. Thank you tax return!
Dual core, 2T Hard Drive, Sweet Graphics card, 8gigs of ram.
Hoping to be able to run Skyrim at high levels.
Last night a bunch of you came over from my Facebook page. Welcome! If you are expecting more of what I post there you will get it, and a lot more.
That being a lot more ME. My tumblr is where I let my hair down, put my feet up, take my pants off…. You get the idea.
My ask is always open. If you come at me with snark I will return it in kind.
I am a liberal and a feminist, so you will see social issue stuff now and again. I am sex and body positive. So you will see that now and again.
But mostly its geeky stuff or things I find interesting.
But really my tumblr is just like everyone else- my open hand for people to take.
If you have questions, now is the time. :-P
Had some friends over. No gaming was to be hand, but good conversation and stories. It was good. Having friends is important. Having people you can connect with is important. Im lucky enough to have those. I didnt always. So0me of you may not, but hang in there.
I also got some new reading material. 
So, this is embarrassing, but I’m completely addicted to The Sims Social. It’s one of those Facebook games, I know, I know, terrible. I’ve been playing it since it first came out, and over the course of time I have even had to add other players on FB just to keep up.
But c’mon, look at my badass Sim.
I got sad when I found out, through trying, that you cant kill off your sim… Also I was getting so many notification things when I signed in it took like 10 minutes to start the game…
