I wish I could wake up on a work day feeling fresh and renewed, and have a nice big breakfast. But alas, I'm always tired when the alarm goes off. Its like, one more hour of sleep, please! Even worse, I usually wake up a minute before the alarm goes off, cheating me out of an extra few minutes of sleep. Seven in the morning is too early to be in at work. Of course, I don't live that far, but it takes me so long (well, not too long) to get ready that I have to wake up early. I'd like to have a breakfast other than pop tarts. Something with sausage and bacon and eggs.

I've also found I've rarely eaten at IHOP for breakfast, usually getting breakfast type food for dinner there. Hey, it works. Well, stuff like omelets and breakfast meats, and cheese-grits with eggs and hash browns, not bowls of cereal. Because a bowl of cereal for dinner is just ridiculous! And what's with the weird things people won't eat. I rarely eat vegetables, unless its some sort of potato product, a burger topping, or in a chicken finger, salmon, or BBQ pork salad. And the only seafood product I'll eat is sushi. So vegetables and seafood, that's normal to not like. But people not liking eggs (and not being some sort of vegetarian), or mustard blows my mind! Actually, when I went to dinner with Joseph and Krug, Joseph totally shocked me. He doesn't like butter! How can you not like butter and its creamery goodness!? He was all, "I prefer baked potatoes only with sour cream and salt"! Sick! No bacon, butter, or chives?! That's just ridiculous. And burgers being better without cheese?! My brain was short circuiting! "Cannot compute!" Damn. I'm really hungry now. But getting back to weird tastes, it also baffles me how Chris abhors family style eateries. You know, where you order a bunch of different entrees like at a Chinese restaurant? I can understand if the portions were small, but the portions are too much to eat by itself! Or actually, I can see him not liking it if the people he's with orders crap. Because then people will be taking the only thing he can eat from his order, and he can't get re-imbursed food wise. But anyways, I think "family-style" is essential at chinese restaurants! I mean, variety is the key there. General Tso's, Mongolian Beef, etc. You can't just have one. Owel, enough food talk.
