Putting together a meal plan at home has been a struggle since I started working full time. When I moved out and moved in to my apartment I was always looking forward to cooking something up on the stove. Shopping for food was bliss. I had pasta daydreams. I just wanted to make something I would consume myself.
Alas, when I worked nine-to-six for nine months I kinda neglected the stove. Right now I am not even sure if I have enough gas in my tank. My two-door fridge is empty. I bet there is something rotting in the pantry.
At the moment I have tons of time in my hands as I have quit my full time job. Although I have to say I will be busy in the coming weeks, my time is still something I can manage myself. Right now I had substantial time to cook my dinner but instead of thinking of what to cook, I was considering which fast food to hit. There's a newly opened KFC around the corner, and I caught myself thinking if I should get a Zinger or settle for a smaller-sized chicken sandwich as I am trying to manage my, say, health. Because of such indecision I am still sitting in my home get-up and thinking that the early evening news and recovery from a very recent allergy attacks are enough to keep me home and undecided in the next thirty minutes. But what the hey.
Right now I don't even know what I want to eat. In a way I am starting to understand those who have lost their appetite and that eating is just a necessary function. I am afraid I might start to binge in a few days and then I'll go on a hunger strike again just because nothing seems to appeal to me. I don't know how this will work out now that the holidays will hit everyone like a sudden under current and food will continue to magically appear in-front of you.
Or maybe being under the weather in the past two days have been causing this similarity to a terminal ennui, a decided disinterest. The small bar of Snickers did not work. I am immune to caffeine though I swallowed it with a floating capsule of antihistamine. I had a small piece of liempo for lunch and a sampler of fruit from the supermarket for merienda.
I think I'll have a Zinger for dinner.
