I feel like steak and eggs for breakfast.

Which I have! (originally, I wanted a fried egg sandwich, then bacon and eggs (but there's no bacon in the house), and that evolved into Steak and Eggs.

...I still find it funny (and a little sad, I admit), that two years later, I'm still amazed by the idea that not only do I have real food in the house, but that I'll be eble to eat it without getting lectured or yelled at for eating it (or cooking it, for that matter).

Anyway, gonna go cook my breakfast before the old tape kicks in and I don't actually make it because 'I shouldn't'.

...sometimes it takes a while to heal, you know?

OMG me too... I've been living on my own for 5 years and still I wonder if I should "really be eating this now". Like sometimes, I'd have popcorn and cereal for dinner. And then I call my mom every night and when she asks what I had for dinner, I'm like, "errrrr..." GUILTY!

I really do try to keep to a "normal" eating habit with each meal. I know it's not good to have potato chips at 8am!

Heh, yeah. IN my case though, the guilt was not from eating 'bad' food, but because I was in a relationship with someone who was pretty much a psychotic control freak for ten years. If I cooked, it wasn't good enough. If I didn't, I was lazy and not contributing to the household. If I ate 'leftovers', I was greedy and wasn't sharing (even if I asked first if it was okay to eat), but if I didn't, and it went bad, it was my fault for wasting food and letting it go bad. Towards the end of the relationship, I was literally living on rice, potatoes, and bread, because it was the cheapest thing to buy in bulk (so there were less fights about 'wasting' money by 'overeating'), and avoiding any other food in the house unless it was literally handed to me with a 'here, eat this'.

...It was a really bad decade, that.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Oh yeah, definitely. What's funny is that I just hopped onto Facebook a few minutes ago to accept a friend request, and her Facebook profile was being suggested as someone to friend. I kinda laughed and went 'uh uh, no way'. I remember helping her set that thing up and getting the photos into it for her.

Life is weird sometimes. :)

And living well is the best revenge, too! :)

Tasty Tasty steak.

How you doing, anyway? Haven't seen much of you.

[goes-kaboom.livejournal.com]

I'm doing okay. There's a lot of stuff going on right now, so it'll probably be a while before I'm around more.

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

No problem. Just hoping you're okay. *hugs*

[goes-kaboom.livejournal.com]

*hug* I'll get that way eventually. Thanks for the concern.
