Day 2: Tried a Gardenburger. Barfola. Wow, I haven't said that since 7th grade.

I'm eating a lot of bread, which I know is not a good thing. I had a tomato roll from Saint Germain for lunch, and an onion kaiser with my Gardenblurger for dinner. When I went to Safeway, I spent a lot of time looking at French bread and dinner rolls. I don't feel like eating meat, just bread.

I haven't tried making soup yet (because I don't have broccoli because when I went to Safeway I discovered I had left my checkbook at home. I scrounged up EIGHT DOLLARS worth of change from my car, my kitty cat coin purse, my pockets, which I used to buy Gardenbummers and bread.)

Today I made a webpage about Pablo Picasso for my tech class. It's a stupid page because all we needed to do was use Word(!) to make a webpage on anything at all, throw in a few links, demonstrate that we know how to steal images and backgrounds from other sites, etc. I was originally going to make a Rottweiler care page but after inhaling paint thinner for about 20 minutes I felt a little spongey in the brain. So I zipped around a few dozen sites about the original Blue Man and then, felt very blue myself. Then I listened to "Blue" by Third Eye Blind. I wanted to go home. So I did. Even though there were two hours of class left.

Day 3. Today I continued to fantasize about bread. E's B and I went to Costco. I got broccoli, dried fruit snacks, spinach and cheese ravioli, and croissants. At the bakery section i had a really hard time deciding whether to get bagels, croissants or cheese danishes. If I got bagels I could get a dozen (six-pack mix/match) fresh and hot. If I got croissants I could have buttery goodness to pair with fruit for breakfasts and mid-mornign snacks. I'm really not that much a pastry person, aside from having a weakness for long johns and krispy kreme glazed, but the cheese danishes were really talking to me today. We conversed for awhile. But I ended up with the croissants because they seemed more reasonable. I know they're not. I know they're probably just as bad as the danishes. I know. I know.

So yeah, I'm wondering how many steamed broccoli dinners I will be able to survive. Will I actually cook some great meatless dish one of these days? Am I just kdding myself when I vow to create somethign fantastic -- I'm so tired when I get home, I just want to do the least amount of work possible to feed myself (this so far has involved using the microwave to heat up an inedible whole grain "burger" and throwing half a pound of broccoli in boiling water), and go to sleep. I know sooner or later I'm going to make something that tastes good or I will fall off the wagon and land on a nice porky lasagna.
