Large people, large dinners…

I’ve been reading ”Beauty’s Punishment” by Anne Rice. It’s… interesting. She’s got a really twisted imagination. o_o

Hmm. I don’t have much to do right now. Not going to the store until tomorrow (trying to cut the spending XP), have already done the laundry… or at least all that I can fit into the bathroom to dry. One thing I did notice this morning was that out of all of the clothes I’ve washed so far, trousers are the dirtiest of the lot. Not socks, but trousers. But then again, socks are only worn for one day before they’re put in the laundry basket (at least I hope so!) while trousers can be worn for up to a week (Mom’s gonna kill me if she knew I said that ^^;;). I guess I could go wash the dishes…

Dad didn’t call the BBF yesterday. So we don’t know if we can get the Net here. Or even if we’re staying here until the end of June or switching to another apartment. I did see some BBF Airflats near the mall yesterday. Yes, I went to the mall but I’m not a mallrat. Jaz needed some paints and a book which we couldn’t find in Carrefour. They didn’t have the book, so I ordered it. Gonna get it next week. More walking. ^-^ I guess I walked about 15 km yesterday. First power-walked to school (we sorta overslept ^^;), then I walked from the school to the mall… I took the longer route. Basically to kill time and it was the only way I was sure I wasn’t going to get lost. Even though I did that, I was still there an hour too early.

I watched Dr. Phil last night. He’s such a comfort for some reason. Must be his accent and that shiny bald head of his. Anyway, the reason why I brought this up was the topic: losing weight. All of the people on that show were really really obese. The first guy weighed like 360 kg and hadn’t been able to get up from this couch/bed for five months. It was his fiancé that asked to be on the show. The whole family (the guy has 2 kids).. well, they’re fat. Then in the next family, the lightest was 84 kg. But when I saw what they all ate, I stopped wondering how on earth they got to be so big. Just one dinner consisted of ribs, chicken, deep fried sardines, hotdogs, hamburgers, mac’n’cheese, steak… there was a whole lot more to that list, but I can’t remember it all. When I saw all of that food, I thought it all looked really delish, but not all at once. Yech… Right, back to the topic. Like I said, it’s about losing weight. And just seeing these people made me think that there is no way I ever want to wind up looking like that. Which is why it was such a struggle this morning when Jaz left for school. My legs were so tired from yesterday’s walk that I could barely get out of bed to help her with her lunch. After a long internal debate, I decided to stay in and sleep. Which is why I’m going to meet her now. Eep! Gotta leave in 5 mins if I wanna make it in time….
