i don't know how a part time job can keep a person so busy, but it does. All my free time has been filled with trying to get my room cleaned up, lvling skinning and mining on my DK Blanche, and trying to get Lui geared in heroics (those last two completely involve playing World of Warcraft: i haven't been so immersed in the game since i first hit 70, but we're making a mad push to start raiding again, and it has been anything but easy going).
On the Lean Cuisine front i have now sampled Chicken Enchilada Suiza with Mexican-Style Rice (i actually had this one at home, and had to add salsa to the rice, but it was probably the best of the bunch, probably cuz i cooked it in the oven), Cheddar Potatoes with Broccoli (the potatoes started to burn at the end, but tasted fine, though there was too much chesse... it was kind of like having nacho cheese all over my steamed broccoli and fries, and that's not really my thing), and Three Cheese Stuffed Rigatoni (which was okay, but just tasted a bit off somehow. i cooked it a little extra and the squash and zucchini were a bit rubbery, not quite hot enough, and i don't think i like them with the marinara, though the rigatoni was excellent). Overall, these meals seem to be light, yet filling enough to satisfy most days. One day i ate it when i didn't feel really hungry yet, and an hour later i was starving, which really stunk. But usually it's enough.
There was one day where i forgot to grab the meal, so i headed across the parking lot to Good Times and bought a Guacamole Bacon Burger (you gotta remember that guacamole is high in good fats, btw) and was "good" and got a Strawberry Lemonade to drink (which seemed less healthy than Sonic's Strawberry Fruit Slush to me, less fresh strawberries and more syrup that probably contains that nasty HFCS). i definitely prefer my homemade guac though. i did have one day where i was feeling down so i went to BigLots and bought a 20oz Coke: other than that i haven't been having any. On Saturday i will be trying Chicken Mediterranean.
Today i need to go to town and buy my schoolbooks before work. Class starts on Tuesday (we have Martin Luther King Jr. Day off for a change), and i have Intro to Creative Writing, US Lit 2, Brit Lit 2, and British Romanticism (which i really hope i don't regret, but i know that i like the professor). i'm looking forward to running again, which i plan to do at the gym for now, perhaps starting out on the elliptical trainers as i build my endurance back up (i've been sick twice since i was running three times a week). i'm not sure what i'm going to do for easy meals at college, but i need to do something. Oh, and i'm also going to try continuing to work at Hobby Lobby.
i guess that's about it. i should be blogging more again as of next week.
