I think I'm going to hunt down more food...
    One long day of exercise never increases my appetite or metabolism, but a week or two sure does. It can take the body a little while to up the metabolism to match the activity, but when it does, watch out! Then you spend the whole day thinking about food, eat a whole meal and want another one in 2 hours, and wake up in the night thinking about food. You feel like an obsessed maniac. After a 2 week hike, I've made people scared. One friend was going to meet me after a hike, and seriously considered just opening the car window and throwing out the food.

    Foooooood!

    My beef stew is really really good! I'm snarfing it! Just the right amount of cayenne and paprika and rosemary and bayleaf. I might've thrown something else in there, too, but I don't remember it at the moment.

    Might have to snarf another bowl.

    thank goodness the only witness to my utter lack of table manners (temporary condition, mind you) is the dog. And he has similar manners all the time, so no judgement from him.

    His dinner was kibble, and I think he feels hard done by. He's lying at my feet, and only deigns to look at me when I make a really loud slurrurup noise.

    Ok, Deb, I'm hearin' ya. I'm so hungry I'm pacing, trying to think of something really big and dense and cheap that I can get from the snack machines to fill me up. DGF has learned not to answer the question "Are you going to eat that?"

    Mmmmm beef stew... *drooool* Makes me remember Mom's with venison cooked until it just fell off the bone, lots of potatoes and carrots... *drool*

    *yawn* Feeling very content tonight before bed. Full of chinese from a very talented friend's restaurant. Comfy in my jammies on the couch and under my blankie. Got the house to myself. Mozart playing on the laptop. Glass of Ocean Spray CranCherry nearby. (my favorite juice - aaaaaah.) Alas, it's time to brush, floss and get some shuteye. Gotta metric in the morning in DE. Life is good at the moment. (Rule of moments: They can be as long or as short as you choose them to be.)

    Sweet dreams TD'ers.

    Proof positive that I am easily amused

    After I wore this stupid boring black walking boot for a week, I knew it needed decoration. I bought a GeMagic machine for a friend's nine year old daughter and said, "Would you please do a tasteful design in gems on this boot?" A great improvement, don't you think? It made both our days (not sure what this says about me, but who cares?).

    It's very pretty!

    I'm at work today- OT :-) I also am taking someone's day after Thanksgiving for double time and $50 cash, and the Saturday after Thanksgiving (ew, 1-11 PM) for OT and $50 cash. Maybe I will recover from the septic tank yet...

    I love it how people pay you to work for them- that's great.

    I think I am going to try to feed Addy tonight. I am so nervous- I have grown very attached to her. She has the funniest personality.

    Snap- I would compare the stink of snake poop to cat semi-diarrhea. It's very, very smelly.
