Friday Feast #2

Friday's Feast

Last week I talked about art, emotionality and being inefficient. This weeks is below!

Appetizer - How are you today?

Today I’m a mixture between melancholy and elation.

full frontalMelancholy because I’ve gotten my hair cut: some chunky side-swept bangs that need taming and the layers cleaned up. I feel as though I look edgier than I was, which is not bad because I do love edgy; I also feel as though I’m trying to diminish my mom role with a new look. So I’m swinging back and forth repeatedly between hating it and loving it and have plans in the near future to add a new colour to it – a deep mahogany-esque rinse.

I’m elated because I finally feel as though my to do list is shrinking and I’m no longer sinking under the weight of everything I have to do which seems as though it will never get done.

Soup - Name 3 television shows you watch on a regular basis.

I don’t have cable, so this doesn’t really apply – except I do rent new seasons of Scrubs, House and Desperate Housewives as they become available and then watch them in a marathon fugue.

Salad - What’s the scariest weather situation you’ve experienced?

Um, thunder and lightening, I suppose. Weather is pretty tame in Vancouver – rain for 8-10 months of the year and sun or sunny periods for the rest, give or take a week of snow-like flurries.

Main Course - If you could wake up tomorrow morning in another country, where would you want to be?

I think I’d like to be somewhere in north-eastern Europe. I’ve heard tale of amazing work and childcare programs there, and from what I’ve read up on, their medical, addictions counseling and opinions, and sexual education programs are amazing and completely in line with my ideals.

Dessert - What do you usually wear to sleep?

I am a standard teeshirt or tank top and boxers or flannel pajamas kind of girl. Whether sleeping alone or not, I‘m all about being cozy in my fetal position.

    Yay for being cozy while sleeping. You need a heated mattress pad. It’s better than a man!

About Eating Disorder Talk

The goal of Eating Disorder Talk is to encourage family and friends of people living with disordered eating - as well as sufferers - to learn more about the conditions, where to get help, the risks associated and another vessel of communication. I come with 20 years of experience living with (and sometimes for) anorexia; my job is not to cure, it’s to allow others to speak. This means wanting to help those that want help and to provide a voice to those who don’t.
