Diet Stuff

Breakfast: Pork Chops
Lunch: Pork Chops
Dinner: Pork Chops

I had a giant package of pork chops to cook up, what can I say?

This is just a temporary return to "Diet Stuff" as I try to get my body ready for being in a crowded convention center. See, carbs make me fart. A LOT. Like, I think I'm the basis of every stereotype about fat guys being farty. Which is fine, really - I heart to fart! I hd a friend in high school who's Dad could fart ON COMMAND, and I always admired that. I'm almost to that level, and I think Fart Command is an important skill for any father to have.

But at a convention where you're trying to sell stuff to people, it's important to NOT smell like a diaper full of room-temperature salmon and sound like a broken bassoon full of pudding. It's important that people be able to breathe while they paw through my vintage collectibles searching for treasure!

And so I am avoiding carbs all this week. Yesterday was pork chops, day before that was... well... I kind of forgot. I ate sausage for breakfast, then about half-way through a bag of corn chips for lunch I went OH CRAP I WAS GONNA DO THIS ALL LOW CARB AAAAARGH!!!" Dinner was salmon, crab cakes and corn (because ya gots to eat the seafood before it becomes garbage).

Today, there are plans. I have Italian Sausage and Chicken Thighs waiting for me to cook 'em up!

Convention Blather

Took the extra seats out of the minivan tonight and started loading stuff for the convention. I crammed 45 LARGE BOXES OF STUFF in to the van tonight!

THE GOOD: I only have a few boxes left to sort, so when all is said and done I'll only have about 4 large boxes and maybe 20 small boxes to load up!

THE BAD: I have room for maybe 10 small boxes at the most.

And so now I must make the horrible, terrible choices regarding what gets left behind :(
