Two Quart Quandry

October 27th, 2004 / #food

My priorities have recently become tragically skewed in a dilemma comprised of two entangling devotions.

Today, the lovely Ms. Lauren Parker instant messaged me with the oh-so-wonderful news that she had her first glass of eggnog of the new autumn season. Particularly excited about the fact that T.G. Lee has bestowed upon all of society the sweet nectar that is nog, I rushed to Publix to pay for my $3.69 half gallon jug of the essence of God.

But then I began to think as I stepped onto the scale in the store. Since summer, I lost 20 pounds. And because eggnog is particularly fattening and I love it, I reached this inevitable conflict of interests: do I disregard my outward appearance for the sake of the tastiness of the nog or do I watch my weight and drift daily through life depriving myself of my one true love of the winter months?

Oh, woe is me.

    I have said it before I will say it again Casey…weight lifting is the best way to lose fat. In fact the more fat you have the more potential muscle you have…you should get a bow-flex or something. Maybe even with some dumbells and 100 crunches a day you could turn all that egg-nog into manliness.

  • What This Is

    This is a not-so-detailed account of my adolescence over the course of almost a decade. Here, I shared my thoughts about things of no real consequence while at the same time being reckless with semicolons and flowery language.

    I used this website to connect with folks before Facebook. Today, I sometimes chronicle interesting thoughts and observations I have. I don't update as much as I should.
