- chicken thigh meat
- baby carrots, pea pods, and baby carrots in a steam-by-microwave bag
- chopped spinach
- soy sauce
- some butter, some pepper
Today I love Josh, the cook, for not making even the teensiest bit of fun for my amateur cooking efforts and 5-year-old palate.
I ate the shit out of that, incidentally. That's the first time that divvying up portions in half between me and Josh made any sense.
• I still haven't shaved my legs, and I still wanted to go take a shower. I spent a good hour at the gym, doing a wide range of things, so I took that opportunity to go, "Self, fuck it. They got a problem, they can come to me. If they don't come to me, then I don't give a good goddamn." This are a huge thing for me, given that my general anx and my "conforming to US female norms" anx are not the same thing.
• The gym website has some nonsense essay about why people are overweight. Do you want to know something? I do nearly everything on that damn list (be sedentary, eat crappy junk food, &c &c) and I'm 5-10 pounds underweight. So, uh, suck it, inaccurate article.
• Convo!
J: *half-lifts something to drag it*
X: No, you lift with the knees, buddy! I go to a gym now, I know this stuff!
J: *peers at me*
X: *cracks up*
