food

[juliet]

My stomach appears to have shrunk. Yesterday & the day before I couldn't eat all of my dinner (& there wasn't all that much of it to start with). Sunday I only had a single plate of Thai stuff (which when it's a buffet with repeated trips permitted, is practically criminal undereating). Yesterday I didn't get round to my mid-afternoon banana until 4, & had *forgotten about it*, whereas usually by around 2.30 I'm clawing at the desk in hunger, & trying to convince myself not to go out for Hula Hoops instead (not that that's a problem currently, as I have NO MONEY till Saturday so cannot *afford* sodding Hula Hoops anyway. Well, OK, not them *&* drinking at B-Movie, so that's a straightforward choice :-) ).

Most peculiar. Maybe I'm ill. Maybe my stomach is reacting to the drop in activity from 10miles cycle per day to 4miles walk per day. Maybe my erratic eating habits over the weekend (pub food/no food, depending on day) have triggered some bizarre mental switch. Oh well, I shall worry about it properly when I stop eating altogether (like I did when I was tiny. Then I stopped drinking as well & they had to take me into hospital & put me on a drip. Rather not have a repeat of that one, thank you.).

From this I deduce that drinks at B-Movie cost the same as Hula Hoops. Ace.

Ah. That may have been a misleading sort of statement, there.

(it's all about spending money. Once you *start*, even if it's just 30p on Hula Hoops, then it just gets worse & you can't stop again, & suddenly there's NO MONEY LEFT. If you just don't buy anything ever then it's a lot easier. Trust me, I know).

I reckon the best way to avoid spending money is avoiding places where you are tempted to spend - which is one of the few good things about the hours I'm working/amount of travelling I'm doing - I simply don't have time to spend money very often. Which sort of makes me a bit of a liability when I get the chance, but you can't have everything.

OTOH, people are more likely to buy you beer than hula hoops at B-Movie....

[juliet]

Are they? Which people? Where can I find them? :-)

mmm BEER

Yeah, if you get taken to hospital, you want better drugs than glucose and saline drip!

I was only 3. So far as I can tell, when you're 3 you're pretty much tripped out all the time *anyway*, so I might not have appreciated the drugs so much. Now, on the other hand...
