Re: Food
I'm hungry and really craving Maoz falafel. I could eat a whole pile of their pickled baby aborigines right now.

It was pretty good, except I fell asleep ungracefully on the bed clutching a stem and near drooling on my Kindle.

As I approach 30, I notice that unlike approaching 20, I can't stay awake worth a damn past 10PM most nights.

Truthfully, I blame work for this problem.

RE: Food
As you get older, two things become apparent:

One, that getting older isn't anywhere near as bad as you thought it would be.

Two, that people who say that they're "in better shape than when I was 20" are fucking liars.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Life expectancy and health solutions being what they are, I fully expect to enjoy my older days. My dad is 63 and still lawyers for the gov't, and lives on a horse farm where he owns and trains his babies. He and his girlfriend go riding and all sorts of shit still.

My boyfriend's plan is to work until retirement age, at which point he will, if he doesn't start one sooner, create a private photography studio. He has no plans to stop working either.

I do know some people who, at my age, definitely look better than they did 10 years ago (at the end of high school) if all the alumni responding for the reunion are anything to go by. Some of those fat, awkward nerds turned out (awkwardly enough) really good looking. Or they're using airbrushed avatars.

RE: Food
I'm stronger and leaner than I was at 25. But when I was 25, my joints didn't sound like Rice Krispies when I got up in the morning.

My dad managed to live to 66 in spite of himself, though the last seven years were spent with partial paralysis thanks to a series of strokes he had at 59 and 60. Moreso than religion, I think he's the reason I never touched tobacco or drugs and rarely drink alcohol. I'm planning to last a lot longer than 66, assuming that god hasn't already tagged some bus or bullet or lightning bolt with my name.

Oh, yeah, food thread. Uh... protein bar for lunch. >.<

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich (grape) and Dole Pineapple / Orange / Banana fruit juice.

This is a rare treat for me. Because I only have one finger, spreading peanut butter or jelly on bread is difficult for me, so I rarely eat PB&J sandwiches anymore. But I splurged and bought one of those jars with the peanut butter and jelly in the same jar in alternating stripes. I'm surprised too, it was the store brand generic, but it's good tasting and a lot easier to spread than I expected it to be.

I know your feeling. I just turned 32. And, I have been around the world working in some of the harshest conditions for the last 11 years.
