Plans? Or if you see this later, what you did? I'm visiting my dad for the day. Gonna get that bitch to cook for me. Tee hee. :poo: Though to be honest, I really don't have the appetite for the food this year. There was loads of turkey and desserts at work yesterday and they looked gross. I probably should've asked dad if he could make Chinese food instead.
Did/does anyone actually have to travel? Like with luggage and shit? I'm going out of town, but it's literally right outside of town. I'll be home by the evening.
Everyone having turkey?
-
Yep, pics forthcoming.
-
Didn't do much...no one visted and I didn't go anywhere. Which is pretty much how I like the holidays these days. I did have Turkey...lots of it in fact.
-
Mine's tomorrow. Grandma's down for the weekend, then we're inviting five family friends for a total of ten peeps. Except this one guy's bringing his girlfriend too for 11. I am unamused and if she starts going out of line she's getting a freakin' pie to the face.

Happy thanksgiving ! Well yesterday was supposed to be my first day on a fast so I didn't plan to go anywhere and declined all the invitations to delicious dinners.. But then my moronic bf kept bugging me about it and making me think about it so I finally was like ok let's go somewhere and we ended up going to a diner that was serving a thanksgiving meal. Ate so much it was soyummyyy

Un-American fasting on thanksgiving much?

Actually that's what I wanted to do but my aunt really wanted me to drive up (1h20min drive) since my parents are out of town. I got free food and my uncle gave me 200$ for no reason.
-
it's more like a detox thing. but i ended up eating sooo much turkeyy hmmmm fuck i shouldnt be thinking bout food. a pox on thee!
-
Are you doing that lemonade thing?
-
shit! how did you know??????

Boyfriend and I went over to my mom's on Wednesday night. She made stuffed bread (some with ham, some with turkey) that's sooooooooooo good. No actual turkey there, which was cool. Drank wine, then I met some friends out for one of their birthdays but the bars were so retardedly crowded. Then on Thursday, we drove to his parents' house about an hour away. We usually take this two lane highway that's pretty much a direct route, mostly because it's pretty and there's practically no traffic. He played WOW with his four year old nephew then got to level 80 later that night when we visited two of his friends who could make a living off playing WOW. We came home Friday afternoon and restocked the fridge with leftovers.
-
shit! how did you know?Huh???
Some of my friends who have moved out to cali engage in this weirdness. I'm kind of thinking about doing it myself.

My friend actually makes a living playing WoW. He's a blizzard story executive. Thanks to him I have an account that's paid up until 2018 on the company dime. I'm swimming in promotional pets and murloc suits. All the ladies want me and all the men want to be m...oh wait no...
oh wait...yes.
And his boss is the guy who does the voice casting. So maybe one day your boyfriend will be battling a character voiced by me in the future and the character will not only defeat him, but you'll think "hey, I'd rather date that imaginary Titan", and your relationship will have met it's end.

You take pictures of your food?

So I guess she's a bitch or something? :lol: Did you have to pie her after all?
shit! how did you know??????
Have you actually done that before? It looks gross. You drink nothing but grody lemon juice? I couldn't do leek soup for the weekend let alone nothing but lemon crap for 10 days.
And I didn't have any turkey after all. Thankfully, my dad made a chicken. He, Merla, and I ate and talked, then we looked at old family photos and had 80's music playing on Sirius all day long. It was nice to catch up with him alone instead of just dealing with a full house (which I haven't done in years anyway, but still...).
-
Yeah I do.

Yeah? Well feel free to ask me any question. Do u want an online copy of Stanley Burroughs? (he's thecreator, it's only 30 pages long). It's reeaally good. And Nuri, the lemonade is reaally good and I'm not kidding when I say all your hunger dissapears and if u smoke, drink, do drugs or love to eat greasy unhealthy food, your desire for thAt dissapears too. It's so weird and yet so good.
Oh and ps, taking pics of food is super tacky. Kthanksbye
-
But aren't you just losing water and maybe some muscle? Or do you drink enough lemonade to at least not dehydrate?
if u smoke, drink, do drugs or love to eat greasy unhealthy food, your desire for thAt dissapears too.
That stuff more or less disappears by me simply not doing it. At least for the first one and last one. I don't do the other two anyway. :lol:

So is pretending Philadelphia is a good place to exist. kthnxbai
-
Philly'll shiv you when you're not looking!
-
I visited my parents. We had a turkey breast (plenty for only 4 people), stuffing, mashed potatoes, broccoli/cheese/rice casserole thing, and then cheesecake for dessert.
Then we watched football and WALL-E.
-
What happened to the rest of the turkey?
-
Philly'll shiv you when you're not looking!
I wouldn't doubt it. The city is filled with Barbarians. It'll be the first place Ra's al-ghul clenses.
-
You of all people should know it'll be the second place.

Let the Cubans keep Miami.

Hmm no, the nutrients in the lemonade are enough to support your body( it's full of vitamins and minerals ) at least for some time , and that's why you feeling of hunger dissapears. And no, you never lose muscle cause u never stop consuming carbs ( the maple syrup). You do lose fat though, ida person is overweight, he/she loses an average of 2 pounds per day, or even if u aren't overweight too
-
I didn't know lemonade had nutrients. Aren't there better carbs for you than maple syrup? Or do other carbs ruin the detox?
-
Something tells me that weight will slingshot back with a vengance.
-

-
No. This is the city of my birth. If I can't have it no one can.
-

Ooooh, oooh, is it the fact that that's what happens with every single fad diet ever?
-
COULD BE!
-
Ha. Probably for the best that I've never done fad diets. The closest thing I came to was the leek soup weekend but that stuff tasted like shit. I need food.
-
Leek soup is delicious.
Calorie counting + Cardio + Strength Training = Slimmer body.
-
A leek is like an onion right?
I like onion soup. I wouldn't mind trying it.
-
It's in the onion family. I've heard it's delicious, which is the only reason I tried it. It tasted like piss's more pleasant brother. I think I may just have odd taste buds. No matter how much I try alcohol, it all tastes like crap, too. And celery is kinda disgusto, too. I tried it w/ peanut butter and it was like "shit, wtf you feeding me?" I don't like pickles or pickled crap either.
-
Yuck Pickles! Ew. I'm with on that one sister.
-
I hate it when the juice spills out of the jar and the smell gets all over the fridge.
-
I hate it when they put it on your burger, even though you told them not too, and then someone says. "Well just pick off" and it never works cause the juice has soaked in and it still tastes like Pickle.
-
Celery hardly has a taste at all, much less a disgusting taste.
I love pickles but not other pickled foods. Actually I don't think I've tried them.
Alcohol is an acquired taste I guess, and few people are drinking it for how good it tastes anyway. There are some scottish ales that I actually like the taste of. But I drink a lot of tequila and it's definitely not for the taste.
-

I've actually gotten use to the slightest hint of pickle juice on Chick-fil-a's sandwiches. But only on theirs.
-
I love pickles and celery. :tom:
-
You would!

Did you know that you can request a sandwich sans pickles? I was in line at the chick-fil-a and this girl next to me told the workers she wanted a sandwich with no pickles and I'm like shit you can actually do that?!? I think it's just easier to pick them out but I don't because I love pickles the more the better!

fuck that shit, the weight hasnt come back yet.

You like Pickles? Ew. I knew something was wrong with you.

I ask for no pickles in my burger when i go to mcdonalds or burger king. i don't like to take it out cause then i can still taste it :x

For Thanksgiving, we got to sit around in our PT uniforms and watch movies all day. Then the officers and senior NCO's served us dinner and we got to eat as much as we wanted. They let us spend a whole hour in the dining facility and talk, and we got to eat sweets without fear of getting smoked. It was pretty awesome.

I can smell Kimchee in Seoul right now. It's a smelly dish.

I thought you always got to eat as much as you wanted. But you'd catch shit if you took more than you could eat?
-
During red phase, you get to eat as much as you can stuff in your face in the two minutes they give you to eat. That is, they give you fifteen minutes to be in the D-fac, then you have to wait at parade rest for the rest of your platoon to get to the table, then you get the rest of that time to eat. Unless you piss off the drill sergeant enough; then you get about 30 seconds, and God help you if you get up from the table still chewing. However, once you get to white phase, you do get a good amount of time to eat. And I've never seen anyone get in trouble for getting more than they can eat. However, a piece of raisin cake costs however many push-ups the drill sergeant feels like giving you.
-
What do they usually give you to eat??
-
Normal food: breakfast we choose from eggs, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, biscuit with gravy, pancakes, french toast, oatmeal and grits. Lunch and dinner are usually grilled cheese sandwiches, fish, and chicken of some sort. There are vegetables and either rice or a potato for side dishes. Sunday lunch we get cheeseburgers, frozen pizza, cr0n dogs, chili dogs and curly fries, and we get to choose two meats. The fact that I can type the menu from memory will tell you how monotonous it can get. When we get stuff like mac and cheese or goulash or fried catfish, its gone really, really quick.
When we're at the firing range or training in the field, we get MRE's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRE). These are okay once in a while, and the treats are usually pretty good, but they get old pretty fast. There's usually a lot of elementary-school sack lunch style trading when we have these. You never, ever want to get the breakfast MRE's with eggs. Ever.
-
Sounds like I'd like the food situation. And if they think they can penalize me by giving me whole 30 seconds to eat they have another thing coming.
-
Yeah sounds good to me too! My friend who was a ranger told me that the MREs sucked ( he would have to eat them for weeks )
-

I've had pretty shitty scrambled egg microwaveable TV-breakfast before and it seems to always give me the shits. Are you telling me these are just as bad, or worse?

TG was the evening on which I got poison ivy on my right arm bad enough to make me look like Hellboy for a month. And this after barely recovering from bronchitis. Think my sister brushed up against it at her house getting into the car and I got nailed while hugging her wearing a 3/4 sleeve sweater. :mad:
Side note: if you ever get poison ivy - hot water. As hot as you can stand it. The relief is borderline orgasmic.
