Pickles @ MindSay


 

   
Get The Pickles Away From Me!!
So, I'm sitting here at the computer. It's 10:35. I've got the munchies and don't want to have a snack that's high in calories. I'm racking my brain trying to think of some really low calorie food. Here's the dialogue that went along in my head as I was thinking.

What can I eat?

What about celery?
Ewww gross! It's like eating crunchy water!
What about some carrot sticks?
No, fucking nasty. I can't eat them PLAIN!
Why don't you have some hummus on the carrots then?
No. Roasted Red Pepper doesn't go well with carrots.
What about some fat free Italian dressing them?
It's too liquidy and doesn't stick to the carrots well.
Well, what the hell do you want then?! Make up your mind! How about some pickles then?
You mean those little oval pickles?
Yeah, they're only like 5 calories for 3.
Do we even have any?
Go check.

*I check the fridge. Yessss, we've got some.*

But wait... I'll feel bad. These are my mom's pickles.
Then go ask her if you can have some.
I can't. She'll ask me why I'm eating pickles so late at night.
Then just eat them!
Okay, okay. Jeez, calm down.

I come back to my room and eat about 8 oz. of pickles. I plan on drinking the juice, too. Is it a lot of sodium? Yes, it is. It's 390 mg for 1 oz. So, 390 * 8 = lots of sodium and water retention. Now ask me if I care? Noooope! I'll probably also have an upset stomach in a couple of hours.

By the way, even though this "conversation" that I had in my head was a little exaggerated, I seriously do have someone up there who gives me advice. It's not bad advice like "Go kill you parents!" or anything. Is it me? Who knows? It doesn't sound like me. The voice has a way of putting me in line, too. So, whoever (or whatever) it is, I'm glad that I have it.




Edit: OH GOD! I'm so stupid for eating all of those pickles. I'm in so much fucking pain. I'm never gonna get to sleep! Shit - I'm so stupid. Also, 'LOL YOU ARE A DUMBASS, ELYSE!'

While I'm sitting here dying in agony, I've taken it upon myself to learn the lyrics to One-Winged Angel. (Both the Advent Children version and then game version.) It's Latin which is sort of easy for me because I took 2 years of Latin in high school. I've got the game version down, still learning the Advent Children version. The thing that's so difficult about these lyrics is that the chorus pronounces some of the words incorrectly and then it throws me off. I'll have to teach them a thing or two. ;)

"What's the dill pickles?  Is everything kosher?" 

 

She's been saying this phrase all weekend! LOL!

 

 

 
 
 

   
Korean and Japanese

Try and guess what this says...

 

나는 개가 있고 그때 그것에 앉고 죽었다... 나는 아주 슬프게 느꼈다, 그러나 이와 반대로 나는 장아찌를 먹고 잘 느꼈다.

 

And this in Japanese...

 

私に犬があり、それからそれで置かれ、死んだ... 私は非常に悲しく感じたが、一方ではピクルスを食べ、よりよく感じた。

 

(HINT: It has to do with dogs and pickles and drawings)

Adventures in the Deep.

My sister and I went downstairs at 11 PM for a snack. Well, I wanted a snack, anyway.

 

Me: *looking at a jar of pickles* I would eat some of those if they weren't in a raspberry vinaigrette.
Sister: We have other pickles in the cupboard thing.

Me: ...

Sister: Let's have a pickle fest! =D
Me: Yeah, and wake up with horrible green diarrhea.

 

I ended up making a cheese sandwich.

 

My sister blogged this too at http://weasley.mindsay.com .
