Ooh. Love tuna fish. That may be lunch or dinner.0

Tuna seems to have become a staple for me when I'm at work. I buy the 4 packs of tuna and grab a mayo packet and mix it. I'll either eat it with chips or just a fork. I had a stash of broccoli that I was eating nightly with the tuna but I'm out so I need to probably pick some up.0

I was doing broccoli nightly. Those broccoli farts were the BEST! /end sarcasm0 -

What kind of wine? Any time I drink alcohol, I write it off as a cheat day because it's like none of my alcohols that I've got are even remotely low calorie. And besides I get way hungry when I drink. It's probably a good thing I drink maybe once or twice a month at most.0 -

Actually the broccoli wasn't making me particularly gassy. lol0 -
I almost brought along the mixed veggies, but didn't. I love tuna, but don't generally bring it to work.
Alcohol leads to me sleeping and then not eating or eating poorly. Very rarely.0 -
Generally, I drink the Gallo Family White Merlot because that's what my dad has been buying lately. He likes it a lot and I like that it still has SOME of the health benefits of red wines....I'm trying to train him to like others but I don't have the funds to be throwing around for wine tastings...

Sometimes I feel bad because it seems like it smells extra fishy, but if that happens, I put the container in a trashcan with a lid to seal it a little bit. It's yummy and convenient and so I eat it a lot.0 -

Maybe I can look at it. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to look at buying alcohol to destress a bit (nursing school sucks sometimes) but maybe as long as I keep it to a reasonable amount, it'll be ok.0 -
y'all there's something wrong with me. I spent the last like minute talking about the frozen vegetables I had with my breakfast. Then I said 1/2 of the cup was pineapple, mango and strawberry and I realized I'd been saying vegetables and I meant to say fruit. I think it's time for bed. lol0
-
Forty minutes to go... good thing too, in a foul mood as I forgot the flax in my oatmeal...
meh, as far as the vegetable and fruit confusion above... that's why I just call everything "food".
0 -
The sad thing is that my brain knew perfectly well that I meant to say fruit. My mouth just wasn't cooperating.
I'm so jealous of only 40 minutes thought. I've got an hour and 40 minutes. I work 7-7 in one of the ERs in my town. My sinuses are giving me hell right now for sure.
But speaking of food... It only took me an hour and a half to eat my breakfast. I looked at the time and I was like woah.0 -
Stuck until eight.0

@SongDragon oops no more complaining from me. You got this!

Not a double today so 7-7 is rougher. Only on since 12 a.m. for a humane twist. Recently it has been 4 p.m. to 8 a.m.0

Stuck until only 7 thank goodness! But I have to dodge the chatty cathy coworker here in about 30 minutes otherwise I might get stuck here until 9AM!
@Sarri93 A glass of wine a day can be good for you to destress and it can aid in digestion. I enjoy a glass of cabernet sauvignon but my dad isn't a fan at the moment. I'll make him a fan eventually!
But if you have a realy sweet pallet, like my dad, the a merlot is a good place to start.0 -
Oh good lord 4 pm to 8 am I think I'd kill myself. I mean obviously not literally but eesh.
I actually haven't had wine since I started eating better. Sweet treats have been giving me headaches lately though. I used to love sweet wines, but I might have to explore a bit to see if I still do. I saw these adorable single serving bottles (I assume they were single serving, they were tiny) at the store the other day that I was so tempted to pick up. Since I have no way of storing open wines, that would probably be a better bet for me.

I have three 16 hrs next schedule. Thankfully only one of those has a 16 hrs turnaround time.
Wine. I like it really sweet, like moscato. A friend is planning a wine tasting.0 -
Ooh that sucks. I actually like my 12s. More than that I get... Grumpy
Aaaand I think I'm adding wine to my shopping list for tomorrow morning.0 -

Hit up the internet and see what you think you might like. One of my other bosses just mentioned trying Fetzer wines. He said he used to drink their merlot and loved it. I looked up their website and their pinot nior also looks great and their zinfandel has won several awards. They're also working on making their vineyards and manufacturing as environmentally friendly as possible.0 -

Holy overtime, Batman! I'd be homocidal/suicidal, though. I like my job, but 16 hrs is just a really long freaking time to work. I've done a few times, but I wouldn't like it all the time.

Argh! Second week in a row I get home, stop at my favorite bakery on the way, and no lobster tails!
I have not had had much in the way of alcohol since I started eating better as well. I guess we teach ourselves it's "bad" and avoid it.0 -

I might have to look into that. I'll do it tonight at work because right now I desperately need to crash0 -

It's not so much that I think it's bad as I don't make my own cocktails (what I typically drink) and so logging them is basically impossible because half the time, I also don't even know what's in them. I look at a menu like ooh that looks pretty!0 -
@jennifer_417 That's just the thing. NO overtime. Technically because it's 8 hours one day, 8 hours after midnight, no overtime and they can get away with it. I'm definitely verging on homicidal. I am going to try to talk to my boss about it this week, though. For now I'm just glad to be home.0

@paul199madrid Thanks!
So sorry to hear about your layoff, that is how I ended up here, back to school, and a new career.
There is truth to the old saying "You can teach an old dog new tricks"
By the way....where in the world do you live? Copper mining?
I live in Arizona0 -

You in Washington?
Montana, just outside Glacier National Park
I hope they get that fire put out they are really hard to control when they get out of hand . We had one here a while back it burned about 1500 acres.0 -

We have two that are over 17,000 acres near here. Yes, that was a 17 followed by three zeros.
We have two to the north that are over 7,000 acres and two to the south that are just over 2,000 acres each. I sometimes think it would be easier to accelerate the fires and be done with it rather than try and stop them. 0
