Riggo-toni Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 So about two month or so ago, I did a painting from a photo of Irish model/actress Kellie Blaise standing in front of a vintage Thunderbird (I think I posted it in this thread) I sent her a dm on Instagram asking if I could post it, and if so, would she want me to credit her in the post. I didn't hear back, and after a month I gave up and posted it anyway. Well, yesterday she commented on the post saying it was "amazing" and today she put it in her feed and put it in her story with the Beatles song Drive My Car in the background. Today I am officially on cloud 9!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CKPbuapMeMs/?igshid=4yhw7aqw9dsa 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) 1/19/21 Spiff's Dispatch from Domestic Bliss Volume One Two weeks ago I notified my girlfriend that on Friday, January 15th I was going to hit a workout goal of mine and that to celebrate, I was going to get a pizza for lunch. A whole pizza, just for me. And that if she wanted to get a pizza for herself, well, I'd treat her to one, too. I am a simple man, I just like extra pepperoni on my pizza. And if I'm feeling adventuresome, add some sausage, too. I sure as hell stay the **** away from vegetables on pizza. Upon notifying her of my intentions, she reminded me in a way that only a female can about how I eat too much meat and not enough vegetables and to her credit, she's not wrong. I laughed and said, "I could go vegetarian for three months straight, no problem," which made her laugh in return. So I informed her that starting the day after my pizza, I would go vegetarian for three months. And all of a sudden I was taking things too far because we have a lot of meat in the freezer. But nope, it's spite diet time. It's been a cakewalk so far, except I can't be more than 50 feet from a toilet due to all the green smoothies I've been drinking. But I haven't missed meat as much as I thought I would. Edited January 20, 2021 by Spaceman Spiff 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I haven't missed meat as much as I thought I would. Been a vegetarian now for quite some time. The only meat I distinctly remember the taste of is bacon. Even steak has faded. A little extra cheese in the diet will slow things down a bit and give you a 75 foot radius. Also...early on in the process...watch your alcohol intake. You might not be able to handle as much for a bit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsmarydu Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I did all veggies for dinner tonight myself...broccoli (with colby jack), beans, corn, and an avocado that needed to go. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Wiggles Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Bacon is a perfectly cromulent meat. Sausage, kielbasa, bratwurst especially when teamed with sauerkraut is superior. There are days I'm vegetarian. Does that count? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friends at my very liberal law school, each of which was some variety of liberal caricature (vegan or feminist or Antifa or San Franciscan) bet me, the token straight white male American, that I couldn’t go vegan for a month. Not vegetarian, ****ing vegan. So I did it, as you say, out of spite. Once I won they bet me double or nothing, so I went another month. The key to eating vegan is not to try to be healthy. Vegan and healthy are a different set of rules. And if you think the transition TO a plant based diet has you running to the bathroom, wait until you transition BACK. Lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I'm addicted to chicken salads right now. As well as partially scrambled egg whites with 100% whole wheat toast broken up in to pieces and mixed together, with maple syrup all over it. Maple Syrup is a sugar bomb, but otherwise I feel fresh and energetic as a mf. One thing I make sure to do is drink a ton of gatorade/powerade mixed with water. As little of the sports drink as I can stand. Have to pee all the time, but it quells hunger well and adds to the energy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about vegan, just seems too inconvenient. The transition back...I am now wondering if that road trip to my favorite burger place after three months that I have planned which will, at times throughout the trip, have me far from a bathroom, is worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
