Damn it bacon, I’m a techie, not an athlete
Sorry about the no updates over the last week. Due to me becoming an almost-adult, I have had to go to college over the last two days so I can see what it’s like. Naturally, this has left me tired, so I couldn’t write. On the bright side, we’re not blocked there.
Today’s topic is food. As anyone who’s spoken to me around the time I eat or go to get a coffee knows, I rather like bacon and other fattening foods, and quite enjoy sweet coffee. By sweet, I mean the equivalent of 4 spoons of it…. ish. Naturally, this isn’t all that healthy. What gets to me is the fact that I’ve been eating like this for years now – and it’s only now starting to make me visibly fat and hugely increase my blood pressure (it was high anyway, but now bending my wrist causes huge veins). Of course, this means I have a problem. Either I eat healthier and less and run away from rabid dogs every morning, or I have a heart attack at some point in a Physics lesson next year.
The problem here is, obviously – I prefer the company of my computers. Now sure, there is, as with everyone, a special lady in my life (kind of, anyway), but before anyone goes “chicks liek muscles lol”, I’d just like to point out that not every girl is that vain, and I’d like to think that she isn’t. So – this leaves me with the issue of motivation. Other than the whole dying thing, why should I take time out from college work, and my tech support work (forgot to mention – in the process of starting to work for myself doing local computer repairs, more on that in another post) to excercise? I hate exercise anyway, so… I do quite a bit of walking, it should be enough, right?
I suppose, when it comes down to it, I have some work to do, whether I like it or not. Damn bacon. So now, a challenge – you people are, I presume, slightly healthier than me. If you can suggest foods which are tasty (did I mention I’m a fussy eater?) AND healthy, and I actually LIKE them, you win a prize (no really). COMMENCE.
