I Dunno
I feel like I need to blog about something, but nothing much comes to mind. I’m in a slump. I’ve been really tired this week and when I get tired, I get really clumsy. I have four bruises on one arm and three on the other. And a cut on my hand that’s about to go away. The ones on my forearm look like I’ve been shooting up. So if you see me, and they haven’t gone away, then please know, I’m drug free. :)

Where's the Beef?
For lunch my dad and I had some of those low fat microwave dinners. We started talking about how they really don’t taste like real meat, so my dad looked at the ingredients in his Salisbury Steak. What was in it?
“cooked Salisbury steak patty with caramel color added (beef, water, onions, textured vegetable protein product [soy protein concentrate, caramel color], seasonings [corn maltodextrin, salt, hydrolyzed soy and corn protein, dry onion, dry garlic, natural flavor, yeast extract, spice, disodium inosinate, disodium guanylate, extractive of rosemary, beef extract, modified cornstarch, flavor (triacetin, butter acids, flavorings, butter esters), rendered beef fat, partially hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed oil], soy protein, etc…”
There’s more, but I’m tired of trying to read the tiny print. How crazy is that?! No wonder those things don’t taste like real food – they aren’t! I thought we were eating healthy. From now on I don’t think I should read what’s inside because I totally lost my appetite. Ignorance is bliss sometimes… On a side note, I really need a neck rub.

Walking Clearance Rack
I showed up early for small group last night, so I went to a nearby GAP. They had tons of stuff on clearance – including the hoddie I was wearing. It wouldn’t be so bad, but they had TONS of them all over the store. I felt like a walking clearance rack. And it’s not a fun feeling seeing something you bought full price for a fraction of the cost. I reminded myself that I’ve had more wear time out of it than the people that buy it now. But I’m glad I went though because I got a $40 pair of sandals for $12.99. That eased the sting.
