Okay, so now I'm pretty sure I have to say 7 random things about myself. So here goes:
1. I am obsessed with TV shows. But usually only on DVD. I can go through seasons and seasons of one TV show like their water. And almost every one I watch, I love. I recently watched all the seasons of Friends and Sex and the City. I am now addicted to: The Office, Lost, Gossip Girl, Greys Anatomy, Entourage, Californication, Weeds, and more. I am constantly finding them to watch free online or buying seasons of new shows. It's one of my favorite things to do.
2. Wet paper/paper towels make me gag. I have no idea why, but just seeing them makes me squirm and feel sick. It's the weirdest thing ever. And touching them? Forget about it.
3. I have a problem with cracking my knuckles. It is slightly out of control. I crack every part of my fingers and hands you can imagine, and when I'm bored, I do it over and over again. I will regret this later in life, I'm sure. Also, it annoys EVERYONE.
4. I have only been in 1 serious relationship. For 5 years, I had the same boyfriend, who was also my first boyfriend. I have not had a legit relationship since then. Of course I've been with other people and have casually dated them, but nothing serious. I kind of enjoy it, but sometimes it's lonely.
5. There is nothing I don't add salt to. I put it on salads, pizza, pasta, popcorn, sandwiches, fish, rice, bread with butter, eggs, potatoes... almost anything I eat, I add a lot of salt to it. It's gotten to the point where I can't enjoy something without the taste of salt. It's a terrible habit.
6. The beach calms me down more than anything. No matter how upset I am, I can go to the beach and feel better. It is my ultimate comfort zone, and it's my favorite place in the world.
7. My biggest pet peeve is when people are rude. I am an extremely polite person. I am not pushy, aggressive, or nosy, and I speak to people with respect. I am NEVER rude, unless I'm have a horrible day, and that rarely happens. So I cannot stand when people are rude and don't consider anyone's feelings but their own. It drives me absolutely insane and will make me instantly dislike a person.
And now I get to tag 7 people. Here you are:

Now, onto food! I'm a bit off schedule, so I need to write about yesterday.
Sadly, I did not do that well. Remember those drinks I had Tuesday night? They came back to haunt me all day Wednesday. I was hungover, and had a horrible tummy ache all day =( I had a bagel for breakfast in an attempt to soak up the alcohol, but that was all I had all day because after that my stomach hurt too much. I made that minestrone soup for dinner for my grandparents, the amazing one that I fell in love with. I had 2 small bowls and a little bit of salad, but that was all. I had a tiny piece of carrot cake for dessert.
I don't think I did that bad, because I didn't eat much, and the bagel was the worst thing. But I would have liked to do better.
My stomach has been bothering me today too! It's not that I'm in pain, it's that I have no appetite, and eating is just bothering it more. So I've barely eaten this whole day. I had a cheese stick on the train ride into NYC, and then my usual triple-grande non-fat vanilla latte from Sbucks. I felt a little light-headed at around 2, so I ate a Fiber-One granola bar. I figured I should eat something a bit more substantial, so I bought a brown rice salad from Bread Market. It was small, but it was really yummy, with lots of veggies. And don't ask me why, but I thought potato chips might help matters, so I had half a bag of plain ones. They didn't. So that's all I've eaten all day, and I might have some veggies for dinner, but right now I think I'd be okay if I didn't eat for the rest of the night.
I've had stomach problems for as long as I can remember, but that doesn't make them any less annoying. A few years ago, I had my gall bladder removed. The experience was terrible, other than the fact that I lost almost 40 pounds. I was sick for a long time before I had surgery, and sometimes I would go 2 or 3 days only eating ONE thing. I have had ulcer problems for a few years, so it's not surprising that I feel sick after a night of drinking - alcohol never sits well with me, so I try not to drink a lot. And when I go a few weeks without drinking and then get drunk, it always bothers my stomach.
So I'm just feeling kind of uncomfortable. I know it's not good to not eat, but when I can't bring myself to when I feel like this.
Random news, but I read in Self magazine that drinking non-fat lattes in the morning are proven to keep women fuller throughout the day. Woohoo! I have a non-fat latte almost every morning from Starbucks, and I have to say, it does keep me pretty satisfied.
Oh wait! I went to the gym yesterday! I was very proud of myself, because I made it there even through my hungover state. I did a Tummy Tuck and Butt Lift class, so it was all toning (just imagining cardio was making my stomach hurt even more). But it was a good class and it definitely helped make up for that stupid bagel I ate.
Okay, goodbye blogging world! I'll be updating tomorrow, hopefully with pictures!
