Today I elect this to be National Dream Something Weird Day. Yesterday was Self Injury Awareness Day as deemed by fellow member Notaprettygirl6. Today, dream something weird, something bizarre. I dream about silly stuff all of the time so I guess that me dreaming weird would be having a normal dream. I refuse to have Days with topics that are food related. That is just plain silly. Why would people even deem days related to food topics anyway. I think that only those who are in some way shape or form addicted to food in anyway would be interested in those days. Which brings me to the topic of all things fat. Now, I know that there are people out there who use food as a crutch. What, are their crutches made out of something tasty? It must be… Eating healthy is great, but sometimes people fool themselves into thinking that things are alright if they watch the food shows. If you just watch them, I mean that is like a recovering crack addict watching someone smoke up. If you are going to eat healthy, do it, don’t just watch the crap on television. I refuse to watch those shows because I mean you can figure the stuff out. Why have someone dictate what is good for you on a health type of level. i mean it is great, but take your own advice. There are too many “gurus” out there that are able to capture people at their weakest. If you are going to eat healthy, cook healthy. Don’t freaking go work out and then come home an bake, what the crap. My deal is lots of water. It makes you pee a lot, but you are clearing out toxins. You would be surprised at the weight you drop and how your body and skin will just be that much more better. I mean there is lifestyle changes too. Stay away from beer people. I have never done the whole beer thing. I am anti-alcohol anyway. I don’t do the whole bar thing. I go to rescue drunks and I am a designated driver. This is the thing, people go to the bar at night get hammered and then come home to sleep it off. Well, I am sure that can’t be good. Then like if you are trying to lose weight, I mean why? Why would you want to do this? I am not saying that I am anti people drinking. I know that that just isn’t me. I am sure that there are people out there that say, “well you’re missing out”. Yeah, I want to be able to remember stuff in the morning, I want to wake up in my own bed, I want to be able to drive myself home. I think these things are important. I don’t have to have artificial fun stemmed by intoxicants. People who know me probably would be even more scared of me if I did do that. I am just too out there naturally. I try not to pollute my body with garbage and if I do (eat a few chips, or red meat) I make sure I over compensate with water. I know what works for me. It just boggles my mind to see someone work out so hard then go to the bar and get wasted, or smoke or something. I know that I do have unhealthy habits too. I drink water yes, I eat healthy for the most part yes, but I know that I am a social eater. I don’t eat if I am by myself. If I do eat by myself, I consume less then one thousand calories in a day if that. If I eat one great meal a week, it will do me good for a while. When I had my farm and I did my grocery shopping I wouldn’t buy crap. I was a no snacks, no meat, no soda household. If someone else wanted that crap, they would have to buy it. I don’t even know how to buy meat at the store because I do not use it. The only time I involve myself with meat is if I go out to eat it at a restaurant. My perfect meal would be a can of corn, a can of pineapples, and a gallon or two of water. Sometimes I get cravings for “real” food and I go with it, but I will tell you what, I am not going to stick my finger in my throat to hack it all up. I have such a love hate relationship with food. I mean it sort of is pointless to me as I do not have anyone that I cook for. I mean I don’t have to make a whole meal. I make sure that my son is well fed. I don’t know…maybe it is just because I know that there are more important things out there to worry about like homelessness, poverty, etc… Now those people are the ones who need food. I wish that more people would be proactive about the whole situation. Everybody thinks that if you see a homeless person out on the streets that the best thing to do is tell them to get a job. That is the least of what is going on for them. There are homeless people out there who do work, but do not have a place to stay. Homeless people are not all beggars either. It makes me sick to see people like this being mistreated. When was the last time you sat down and talked to a stranger or homeless person about nothing. Yeah, nothing. Have you ever thought to give a homeless person that doggy bag that you got from some expensive restaurant. Have you ever made a care package for a homeless person. When was the last time you pulled a twenty out of your pocket and saw a homeless person, not begging, and just said “here”. I know I have. I am not some sucker either. Oh, I am sure that is what you are thinking. I am just proactive. I have been there. I do know what it is like. Do you know what it is like to sleep in your car in the winter time. Fish food out of a garbage can. I do. You make the best out of it. You do your best and get through it. If you wake up the next day, you are doing good. If that day sucks, just think, there is someone out there worse off than you. I guess that is why I started my grass roots charitable group. It is all about giving. Give someone the time of day, a kind word, a smile. It is the little things in life that count. It has become such a “me” society. People get mad at me sometimes because I am helping others. Some people don’t understand why. I just do it. I don’t want anything out of it. Like today I have to call to get registered for a bone marrow test thing so that maybe I am able to help a girl all the way in California. I only can hope that I am a match. I take it that seriously. Don’t wait for things to happen, get proactive and stop ruling the world from your chair!
