the fat kid chronicles

I don't even know where to start. It was like, one day I was fine not eating anything but soup and crackers and then one day I decided that I was going to binge on fast food for the next week. The bad part was the my stomach is protesting because it's still weak from when I was sick but I just don't care. That's when I realized...OMG, I'm a fat kid!

  Although I'm not quite sure if was I state is true but I'll start at what can only be described as the beginning. We were all gathered somewhere (the exact location is not fuzzy to me) and someone asked me if I was still going to run the Marathon to which I confidently replied, "Nope, I gave that up a while ago."
There was a general intake of breathe and the sound of crashing forks, glass cups and other dramatic things that happen when someone hears shocking news. So then why is your blog called Saschathon? Shouldn't you change it?

I shrugged. I guess I should except I haven't fully committed to the idea of giving up the Marathon. I mean I still have 200-something days for training. If anything, I'll just start going to the gym again. I'm really not that concerned, I told myself.
  Whither it was to prove a point or simply out of rebellion, I began eating junk food again. And not just any sort of junk--the All-American, obesity-inducing, cellulite-producing stuff such as peanut butter stuffed Oreo, Twisted Frosties from Wendy's, and Popeye's. Imagine all of that in a matter of a few days. I feel like writing it all down is making my cholesterol count go up.  I guess the best way to describe it is to compare myself to Harada. He gets very excited when he sees a can of tuna and won't stop meowing until it's infront of him. He'll lap it up in seconds and then for the next few days, he'll come running into the kitchen when even he hears the some of the cupboards opening becuase he's a tuna juice junky.
  But the story doesn't end there. Yesterday was the climax of my bad food binge. Brent announced that he was craving "something deep fried" and the first thing that popped in to my head was "Popeye's!" so to Popeye's we went. See, I had a dream Popeye's chicken a few weeks ago and it was probably because they had subliminal messages that brainwashed me into craving it in the first place. Anyway, Brent seemed to have been brainwashed as well. I ordered a combo with chicken tenders, Cajun fries and a biscuit. Brent ordered something similar and then went back to ordered a side of onion rings. When he came back in the car, we opened the fresh batch of onion rings and bit into them with fat kid satisfaction. You had better believe we finished the entire box in minutes. And then I opened my combo box and started in on the fries. The problem was, the fries would have been better if I had the before the onion rings--yes, they were that addicting. Anyway, we ended up eating our food at the Pet Co. parking lot because we were both so hungry....and then ended up buying Twisted Frosties for dessert not too long afterward. I decided to be adventurous and try a different flavor (I usually get Oreo and vanilla). That day, I went with cookie dough and chocolate. After my first bite,  I looked at Brent with a pout and said, "this needs more crunch to it, I wish I could add Oreo cookies or peanuts or something."
Brent laughed and said, " You're fat!"
We both could stop laughing after that. It was true, with a statement like that, I was a bonafide fat kid. I thought about going for a run today. I even charged my ipod but then decided against it. I did however, go on a cleaning spree and did four loads of laundry, kept Salena in a box while I cleaned up her mess (hey it kept her out of the way when I convinced her that she should surprise our mom. The only problem wasa she got sweaty because she kept the lid on and waited forever for my mom to come downstairs), put together a shopping list and went out shopping for house stuff (as opposed to my own stuff which I have a bad habit of doing), and got food for tomorrow.

Anyway, I have a grand feast in need of preparation for tomorrow mid-morning (Momma's day, derrr). So....bye!

I was so efficient today, that I even printed pictures for my picture frame at home. I know, my pictures are pretty awesome.
