Grr, food is so crappy. It takes up soooo much of your life, and you can't ignore it or you die. It's pissing me off more than normal cos my parents are away and I have to fend for myself, though I have been making my own tea more and more recently in preparation for Uni when I'll actually need to know how to cook. Oh, grr, uni's gonna be like this everyday too, isn't it? Damn. I can't really afford to loose weight either. Cooking is just so boring! Then the eating's not that exciting. Then in uni I'm actually gonna have to wash up too. I mean, that several hours EVERY SINGLE DAY that's taken up just dealing with food, how boring, what a waste.
I can miss a meal and not miss it, for at least a few hours, if at all, normally*, but of course cos I'm sat here knowing that I should've eaten tea by now, then my stomach mildly complaining. And you see, there's the difference. Something like sleep is actually enjoyable, so not only is it neccesary, but you actually get positive feelings from doing it, whereas eating's just more about not getting negative feelings. I wouldn't mind so much if it just took up less time, like you only had to eat breakfast for the day, and that's it. Breakfast is undoubtedly the best meal. Still, even that's annoying, especially when you havn't got lots of time before you need to be somewhere. Yeah, that's my main problem with it - it takes up too much time.
*Not that I'm in the habbit of often skipping meals, execpt lunch, but that's cos I get up late. I don't want you all thinking I've got annorexia or something, I just don't enjoy food that much. Probably to do with my crap sense of smell. Apparently 80% of what we percieve as taste is actually to do with smell. Which means I could be operating on something like only a 30% ability to taste, which might explain a few things. Except you would've thought that'd mean I'd like really strong tastes wouldn't you? But tis not the case. Ah well. Suppose I should go eat something. Bleh.
