So I feel like absolute vomit today. Literally. I feel as if my body is made of vomit. I just feel acidic. It's gross.

But I need to eat, right? And I was in a hurry cause I overslept to the point of no return, so I needed a quick lunch on my way in to work.

Hence: Subway wrap. Almost healthy (almost!) and almost delicious.

I have a feeling that the only thing I am going to gain from this blog is disgust at how much fast food I eat.

...but really, didn't I say I wasn't going to work this weekend? What am I doing here, anyway?

For the record... (Part 2)

Sometimes my lap is my desk. See? My desk can be anywhere my laptop can sit. Isn't it amazing?!

I flew home (to Minnesota) for Thanksgiving this year, and so my first unofficial special guest star was none other than...

My niece, Lilli! Yay!

For the record...

I do a lot of work at home. A lot. And I also have a webcam there. So this blog will also include things I eat and do at my desk at home.

I do have a life. Honestly I do. I have some great friends, an awesome girlfriend, and I do many things away from this desk. I do, however, spend at least 40 hours a week at my desk at work, and I have probably another 10-20 hours or so of desk time at home (although most of that is writing, playing video games, etc.). This is more than I sleep in a week! Therefore, this is my home... this desk.

So enjoy it! Also we may or may not have special guest stars, including but not limited to: My boss, my coworkers, my girlfriend, my roommates, or my cat.

So I've had this ridiculous deadline for the past month, and basically my eating habits have gone to hell.

I'm not going to talk about this project here, because it's not necessary. But needless to say, it has been a BEAR of a project and it is going to the press NOW.

Thank god.

Anyway, I haven't had time or energy to actually eat good lunches. This means McDonald's. I don't even want to talk about it (and I don't want to hear about it from you). Their chicken nuggets are made of crack!

Oh and P.S., for breakfast I brought a baggie full of frosted mini wheats to eat, but made myself a monstrous mocha instead. No photo, I was in a meeting.

Welcome to my desk!

Currently I am working at a temporary desk in a cubicle that smells like old farts.I'm not kidding. I am depriving myself of pleasureful things to get me motivated to finish this project. But once I finish it up, I'm rewarding myself by moving into my new office (ooh!) with a window!

Mostly this blog will be photos of what I eat at my desk. That's the schtick. But maybe sometimes I'll tell you WHY I ate what I ate or how I psychologically feel about it.

For example, I eat frosted mini wheats every single day for breakfast. You know how those Activia commercials talk about their special yogurt regulating your digestive system? Well, that's sort of a half-truth, cause any food that's good for digestion eaten regularly will regulate. Obviously.

So why do I eat frosted mini wheats every single day? If this is too much information, I don't care... I eat frosted mini wheats (everysingleday) because I if it feels like a Brillo pad going IN, which I assume to mean it's going to scour all the way through my body.

Basically, it's a version of scrubbing bubbles. For the digestive tract.

So that's basically how this blog thing is going to go. Intrigued?
