Really Random Thoughts on a Tuesday
Oct. 12th, 2010 01:00 pmWhenever I read about a celebrity couple splitting up, I feel surprised. I shouldn't. I want to find a list of celebrity relationships (marriage, cohabitation, etc) that have lasted until death. I bet it's short. I think the only celebrity break-ups I would feel sad about might be Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, and Christina Hendricks and Geoffrey Arend. I honestly doubt those couples would split up, but if they did I would be sad.
I have been working out steadily and slowly for about an hour now. It has not hurt as much as it has in the past. I credit the stretching, the breathing, the Cha De Bugre pills, and the Alfalfa pills.
Rose keeps jumping onto my lap, putting her paws on my shoulders, and nuzzling me. It's a little difficult to write with a cat in the way. Adorable, though.
I've found a new snack obsession: Power Crunch Bars in Peanut Butter Fudge. They're wafers. They're caloric and nutritionally dense enough to serve as a quick breakfast. They have no high fructose corn syrup, and no sucralose. They're high in whey protein. They're filling. They taste amazing. They're like wafer cookies but are sort of healthy. I love them as much as I love the Greens Plus Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar (which has a little soy, but not enough to affect me). I get them at Trader Joe's. I ate my last one this morning. I need to go back to Trader Joe's soon.
(I hate Splenda/sucralose so much that I will avoid products I might enjoy just because they contain sucralose. I hate the aftertase, I hate the stomach cramps it gives me, I hate that companies assume that everyone wants sucralose in everything. I am aware that Splenda is a godsend for many people, and that's awesome, more Splenda for them. Maybe one day I will get used to the taste. But not today.)
Also, I just realized that if my soy sensitivity were worse, I would be extremely sad, because I wouldn't be able to enjoy so many organic snack bars. I do admit, though, that insisting throught clenched teeth that "Too much soy causes a mild allergic reaction, quit trying to push your fucking tofu on me" can be amusing.
Yes, hello, Rose, I love you too. Rose says hello.
