    I hate days where I don't workout in some way/shape/form. I am SOOOO cranky pants right now and a lot of it has to do with not having worked out today and boys/men.

    I am just done. Can't a girl just be happy without anyone wanting to change anything? Can I?! CAN I?!
    I just want to clean your house, cook for you, and have sex without any pressure of it being an actual 'relationship' that has to 'go somewhere'. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR?!?!

    If anyone needs me, I'll be eating my grilled chicken and broccoli that seems to be tasting like sand right now and then doing the plank position until my arms fall off. :grumble:

    I didn't know there was a night shift group. That's awesome. Hows everyone doing tonight?
    Sick. Been sick since Wed. Luckily my coworkers have been awesome and I only stay for 1/2 the shift, help out with the majority of the workload and then go home and sleep. I think if by Monday I haven't improved, I am going to go see a doctor.

    Cleaning the house tonight since I'm off. I'm back on nights after a year and a half on days. Never thought I'd be back, but I've always loved it.

    I'm sorry (kinda) to laugh at your misfortune but I did chuckle at the image this in my head.

    Trying to decide if I want to take a nap at the start of a 72 hour shift or work out. I think nap may win. :smile:

    Laugh away. I probably will when I look back at this 'problem' but right now it's just so GOD DAMN FRUSTRATING!

    I'm over here eating a vegan (except for occasional salmon and eggs) diet. Mostly produce smoothies and beans/rice with obscene amounts of guac. Today I made cornbread that was free of most stuff people try to be free of but I did use eggs. Not too shabby. I miss cheese a lot. So far I don't feel any better but it has only been three days so I'll give it some time. I'm really stoked to see my skin improve...that alone might motivate me more! I even drank gluten-free beer over my weekend. Alcohol is inflammatory but that is the one thing on the top ten no-no lists that I'm not excluding...but at least my beer was gluten free! Gotta have a vice...

    Take the nap. I want a nap. Take the nap, for me. :smile:

    My GF is vegan. She isn't the preachy type either. I have tried some of her vegan stuff and it's pretty good. I mentioned that giving up cheese would be a hard for me, especially since I love mac and cheese. She introduced me to a vegan mac and cheese recipe, it's really good for not using traditional cheese. http://detoxinista.com/2011/01/move-over-kraft/

    I've made vegan chocolate cupcakes once. They were awesome.

    Then he comes in here and wants to 'talk about it'. I don't WANNA TALK TO YOU! I thought I made that clear by avoiding you, doing my rounds, and then shutting my office door to eat my sandy lunch and drink my water.

    I am WAY too frustrated.

    My frustrations are with me and the hubs working completely opposite shifts. The fact that he's so busy with he has going on that he really can't focus on other things....other very important things that I need him to focus on. Like the fact that I need some sexy time. Hopefully by next weekend, they'll have things wrapped up.

    The fact that there are lots of chocolates out due to Valentine's Day is not helping anything either.

    Same here. Two on, two off. Every other weekend.

    Never tried anything vegan. I love cheese and rice and such too much. I'd fail miserably lol

    Working opposite shifts definitely puts a damper on things. Apparently dirty thirty took awhile to kick in with me but now that is has...we only sleep in the same bed a couple nights a week and half of those we are tired and asleep before ten!
