Sleep

Vacation time away from work messes with my sleep. I go to bed late, get up too darn early and sometimes go back to bed and sleep too late. Like this morning. I got the Redcup to meet with most of the usual suspects. The group was sparse, but well attended. However, we did get into an interesting morning discussion about strange foods we like and dislike. All of us declared that no matter how much someone declares that rattlesnake tastes like chicken....they are fucking deluded.

Other foods discussed were spam, sardines, corned beef hash, vienna sausages, bologna and Orange Julius. Kat went to the kitchen and made me an OJ on the spot. It was almost like the real thing.

The lines were drawn about the other food choices. Gary looked like he was going to throw up at the mention of most of them. I like a little fried spam once or twice a year. I like corned beef, but not hash. Sardines are a good snack item when I am closely following my diet. Andrea likes sardines smushed with tuna and crackers. Christopher seemed to like all of it, but not the rattlesnake. We all declared bologna a food of our childhood and I am not sure any of us has tried it recently. I know the kids ate a lot of bologna sandwiches. Ground beef was a luxury back then. Have not had a vienna sausage in ages and will never again.

What can I say sometimes our conversations take a strange twist. Christopher got up from the table and declared he was hungry!! Wonder if there is a spam sandwich on his list??
