If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do.

10:35am: Random Randomness
-Guitar Hero: Metallica = Awesome. Then again, I'm a huge Metallica junkie, so of course I love this game. The fact that there's a System of a Down song in it is only icing on the cake.

-Yes, I'm a dork. But not a dorkfish; that's something else entirely. :P

-Part of me kinda doesn't wanna go to Philly tomorrow. Not sure what that's all about.

-Wow, my arms hurt. I've started going to the driving range to work on my golf swing and get in a little exercise once a week, and I can tell I haven't done that in a while. My muscles currently hate me.

-I know I did the right thing telling the Tribune Company they didn't owe me that money, but sometimes I just wish I wasn't so damn honest, ya know?

-Memo to Kat and Munchie: whatever the fuck your problem is with each other, fix it. Either talk it out or beat the shit out of each other or spend an hour dumping a bucket of worms in each other's pants ... I don't care. Just deal with it and leave me the hell out of it.

-That is all. I think. Not sure.

2:49pm: Cue Heart Attack in 3, 2 ...
Seeing as how I've started watching what I eat a little closer (a preventative measure; my father lost his fast metabolism around the age I am now and ballooned. I'd like to not do that), I've started researching tips on healthier eating and found an article on Yahoo today outlining some of the unhealthiest fast food items out there.

This one took the cake: the Hardee's Monster Thickburger. Here's what Yahoo had to say about it:

"It's got the caloric equivalent of almost six McDonald's hamburgers, the saturated fat equivalent of 43 strips of Oscar Mayer bacon, and the sodium equivalent of 84 saltine crackers."

Good. Fucking. God. This thing also, apparently, has 1,420 calories, 108 g fat (43 saturated), 2,770 mg sodium and 230 mg cholesterol. My arteries are hardening just reading that.

I don't count calories or anything like that, but I am starting to be a little smarter about what I eat. More fruit and vegetables, less red meat (though I still eat some), things like that. My job doesn't always allow for planned-out, healthy meals, though; sometimes, a trip to McDonald's or Wendy's is all I have time for.

I know one thing, though ... based on that up there? No more Hardee's for me.

9:46pm: Or Not ...
Yeah, that trip to Philly I was gonna take? About that ...

Despite being told last week I'd be all set (hotel room, food and all that), turns out I ... wasn't. I didn't find that out until this morning, and when I finally talked to the person in charge of that sort of thing tonight, I found out there were no more rooms to book.

So, no trip to the Penn Relays for me. I'm kinda bummed, but kinda not. Dunno, hard to explain. I'll try again next month, when they go to New Jersey for the ECAC meet on the 15-17.
