I once had a horrible dream about about zombies. My niece was bitten and my Sister, Mother, Father couldn't bring themselves to take care of her so they made me do it. I woke up furious, I wanted to drive to the next county and beat the crap out of my father.I had the worst evening last night you guys. I woke up ( at least I thought I did; I hate dreams within dreams) to seeing a man standing beside my bedside table. It was only until I did a full house check and double checked that all the doors were locked and that the dogs were fine, that I realized I was dreaming of a house invasion. Thank god no one actually broke in, it was terrifying.
Even though I knew it was a dream, it was so vivid that I couldn't sleep in my own bed. So I went and tried to sleep in my parent's room. I think I'm running on max 3 hours of sleep.
Okay let me try and find something you'll enjoy.

Ummm... thank you. These aren't really taking my interest.
I think I need to be blindfolded and fed varying food. I don't think I will be able to bring myself to eat anything more than basic otherwise.

I'm sorry. Thank you though, for taking an interest in my health and trying to steer me in the right direction. It's greatly appreciated.
Online check-in done for our flight to Mexico City tomorrow. Flights from Europe to Mexico usually swing north past Iceland and then head south across Canada and the US to avoid the jetstream, so I may well be flying over some of your heads!
Well, not my head...
Ooh! I don't think you'll be flying near my corner of the country, but have good flight!
Oh! I seem to recall you're in the more western part of the continent, aye?
The people who really blow me away with their calorie consumption are pro cyclists. A Tour de France winner is all about power-to-weight ratio so they tend to have no upper body bulk or fat at all - none of that muscle that a bodybuilder or powerlifter has. Bradley Wiggins is about my height and build and yet weights 15 kilos or so less than me (and I am in the "normal" BMI range for my height.) Despite that they can still consume 8-10000 calories per day on a race day depending on terrain. They need it just to fuel the effort they make. Mind-boggling.

Eastern, actually. It's KS who's in the Western (central, really) part.
Captivating KS lives in the cowboy region of Canada, so think lassos. (captivate/capture, get it?)
Basement Cat lives in the capital, so think corruption everywhere. (Because I am Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil! And politicians.)

You'll most likely be passing over me at some point.

So you're not going to get anything Uncle says today because it will go over your head. *runs away*

Heehee, I've yet to meet a handsome cowboy. Where are they all, Cat?

I'll convert you yet. Drinking water?

Sweet potato fries are delishus! Get some mayo and chipotle sauce and mix them. Dip the fries in that or cover them in sriracha sauce and you'll be good to go! Have it with a healthy steak is my suggestion.

It always does Cat. I just keep trying. ![]()

Alabam...
I'll wave whenever I see a plane!

Hehe. Not going the right way for you, Serza, From past experience, Ottawa and New Jersey are both possibilities, though. There does seem to be quite a bit of variation in flightpaths.
Also this means that over the next three weeks I may be a bit quieter than normal as I am busy doing holiday stuff and possibly away from internet access. We'll see how it goes. Maybe I'll pop in with a few photos...

With the cows? *runs away*

I need to get myself a cow then!
Lookit how cute!

You'll be missed! Hopefully you'll be able to pop in from time to time. Still your going to be in a beautiful country with awesome food/beer so I am envious.

Cycling is huge here. So it's not uncommon to see a cyclist loading up on a massive stack of pancakes on a race day in a place like Denny's. It always amazes me and I mess with a friend of mine because of the amount of food she can eat on race day. She is five foot nothing and probably 100 pounds or less. But, go with her to Denny's on race day and she will eat just as much as me. I joke with her because she eats five or six pancakes, four eggs and nearly an entire plate of hash browns like it's a small snack.

Sometimes. I've just drank 3 cans of pepsi (it's not coke - I'm not going near that stuff again any time soon) and am opening my 4th now. But, yes, I do occasionally drink water.
Well, it would be difficult for me to be more embarrassed. I hang out in the Sera thread last night for the first time in forever, all to enjoy the company, and I promptly start feeding trolls. Again, I'm so sorry everyone. I should have known to ignore from the beginning.
Mean? Me? Never! I capped my claws and everything!
*Snip*
After reading through the thread this morning, I would like to announce that I may be a little bit in love with Basement Cat, despite my unfortunate lack of likes with which to express my affection.

For KS: a song from the 90's by one of the big Québec stars of the time.
Bye bye mon cowboy. (bye bye my cowboy)

Ah, cows and other farm animals, they are cute when they are younger and a pain in the backside when they grow up. If you ever find yourself in Colorado, I can take you to my grandparents farm. You can visit the cows, sheep and horses all you want. But, you will probably not want to take one home, once you see just how much work taking care of them really is. lol

Watch that stuff. My brother and father were pepsi addicts plus smokers. One's got diabetes and the other is awaiting test results. In both cases pepsi was singled out as a probable big contributor. Soda is diabolical. Water, coffee, or tea for me.
