The morning of the test I am setting five alarms!!!

lol, I don't think that would be necessary! Whenever I have a big exam (like a final) early in the morning, I usually have trouble sleeping. I set my alarm at about 6 and I usually automatically wake up 5 minutes before that and I'm WIDE awake. I could probably run a couple miles right out of bed with the amount of energy I have.

It's nothing to laugh about. 😡 Is it such a crime to want to sleep past 7 AM on a Saturday morning??? 🙄

LOL! My bird wouldn't wake me up like that. He could only start screaming if someone isn't with him for a few hours. Usually he'd scream when he's on the porch. We could hear him from my friend's house across the street in his backyard (so several hundred feet away). Small bird, too.

:laugh: Yeah, that's definitely my all time favorite. I wonder how long it took to put together sometime like that. Must have been a long time.

Sometime, like in September, I am going to make a movie of my tauren doing all kinds of awesome things.

Cool!

I love video editing. Haven't done any machinima myself. It's really fun but very time intensive. 🙁
 
All you married people here should vote in the out-law, er I mean in-law, poll in the Lounge. 😉

I'm curious. So far I'm the only girl who voted that I can't tolerate either.

The VA. 😡

Taking a little coke/SDN break. 😀

OK, serious question - anybody have any idea for food (a hot meal, not like an apple) that is extremely easy and fast to prepare (like less than 5 minutes max), filling, and has some actual nutrients in it? I am going to be the world's first fat malnourished person at this pace.

Hmmm, ramen noodles and macaroni and cheese are out based on your nutrient requirement.

Wait, we need sodium in our bodies so that must be good for you right? :laugh:

I'll keep thinking .....

Hahaha, easy mac is one of my staples. Also, canned soup, TV dinners, and hot pockets. Some TV dinners are ok.

I eat ENTIRELY too much sodium. My cardiologist would have a heart attack. :laugh: I don't even really pay attention to it.
 
oxeye said:
Oh, and should this be something that is easily portable? So you can take it and eat it at the hospital?

Not necessarily, though that would be nice. Honestly, I don't have time to eat much at work and pretty much just drink coke when I get a chance.

I'm more thinking of at night when I get home totally beat.
 
Hmmm, I know my dad really likes to eat rice with a can of tuna and one of those marinade type sauces. He just puts it all together in a tupperware thing and microwaves it at work.

I'm not really sure how nutritious that is, though. 😉 I supposed to could add some frozen vegetables and mix it all together.

I eat too much sodium too. 🙁 I hate cooking so I *love* prepared meals.

Do you have a Dream Dinners near you? I'm going to try that with some friends at the end of this month. They won't have the preservatives like other frozen stuff so it should be a lot healthier for people who hate to cook.

And you pretty much described my lunch selections in that post ....

I really need to start eating different stuff too. 🙁

I don't know of anything like that in particular, but I knew of some things like that in Iowa City. They were EXTREMELY expensive, but I may look into something like that.

I am craving real food. It is really weird. I didn't exactly have a good diet before, but as TypeA posted, I used to eat one solid a day so that helped a lot. 😀

Yeah, the one here works out to $2.50-$4 per serving depending on the meal (steak is at the top of that range). It's a little more than TV dinners but might be worth it if it is better for you.

That's my justification for trying ti anyway. 😉
 
How does the whole banning thing work? I noticed the guy psiyung who, a few months ago, posted "too bad you lived" about my cancer, was banned, and now he's up again.

Just curious how banning works. I thought a ban was permanent.

Bans can be permanent or less so. Judging by the dates, it looks like they gave him 60 days.
