Long nails and shaggy beard.

Ha. You think I'm already at work. Helllll no. It's 11am and I just woke up. I ended up checking emails and paying bills and downloading music and whatnot until 3am. I turned my phone off so The Boss wouldn't be able to wake me up this morning with a, "Um, are you coming in today? There's an emergency to be taken care of and I really need you here. No pressure!" I have to shower and dump stuff from the one bag I brought home from the office. Oh, and cut my dragon lady nails and shaggy, shaggy mountain man beard. Then I'll head in. I wish I had some (gluten-free) cereal. I am STARVING up in here.

I haven't even opened my blinds yet so I didn't realize it was chilly fall weather. But it was like that when I was trekking home yesterday evening, so I felt like I was really back in the city. I ended up ordering sushi that was so very good. And yes, I did eat Oreos. But I felt like shit before even eating any of those.

I tried so hard to avoid gluten while on the shoot. People just did not get it at all. I would either get the pity look and the "Oh, are you trying to live carb-free? You'll totally lose weight like THAT." Or I'd get the "Why don't you just eat white bread? There's no wheat in that" because they're idiots and don't understand that white bread just has bleached wheat flour (I'm right about that, right?). Or, my favorite, I'd get a "I'm going to pick up lunch but I know you have some dietary restrictions since you don't eat meat, so what do you want?" I don't eat meat? Yeah, no, that's not my dietary restriction, fool. I still can't tell if it's really gluten that I need to avoid or if it's something else. I was thinking of starting my food diary before even calling the doctor to set up an allergy appointment so I could just be prepared. I always feel nauseous.

I have to get ready to go into the hell hole.
