Rotten but delicious

I don’t have fast food all the time, but every so often I get a really bad craving for an egg burrito in the morning or chicken nuggets after a late night of partying.

It’s interesting when people say to me “Oh gross, how can you eat that stuff? Don’t you know how bad it is for you?” It’s like they think I eat it all the time or something. I may have it once or twice a month, if that.

It’s a shame that so many people eat garbage food and think it’s not harming their bodies. I know living off of frozen meals and take-out is fast and easy, but they’re lacking a lot of nutrients their body needs to be healthy, plus it can cause health problems in the future, like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and so on.

On the other hand, I would never be able to count calories and fat content in my meals everyday. I know that eating a giant plate of nachos smothered in cheese and dipped into sour cream isn’t going to be good for me, but that’s why I don’t eat them all the time.

Anyway, I suppose the point I’m trying to make is to not assume a person eats fast food all the time. We’re all aloud to treat ourselves, right?

How often do you eat fast food? Do you avoid it like the plague or treat yourself once in a while?

The wait continues …

As some people may now I’ve managed to dislocate my shoulder six times in the past. This morning, I added +1 to that total.

When I was 15 I decided to try out skateboarding with my little brother. He told me to stay away from the quarter pipe because I wasn’t good enough. Of course, I didn’t listen and I went down it, bailed and dislocated my shoulder.

That was eight years ago and now my shoulder likes to dislocate at the slightest bumps. For instance, once I had my arm on the back of the couch, sneezed, and it dislocated. Another time I was swimming underwater and it dislocated.

This morning, I went to roll over in bed and it dislocated.

I’ve been on the surgery wait list for a year now but because it’s not knee or hip surgery, it’s a long wait. It’s tiresome and I just want my shoulder to stop dislocating. It hurts when I do it, it aches afterwards and it’s a pain in the ass.

Damn you Interior Health pushing knee and hip surgeries. Why should I have to wait while others get pushed through?
