Derek Walls' day off

Having a day off is much more meaningful when you work 60 hours a week.  I made my favorite solid meal today, which I have been living off of almost a year now.  Want know what's in it?  Cilantro (sometimes parsley), TAHINI, olives, hemp oil, hemp seed, apple cider vinegar, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin seed oil, jalapenos, haberno, Thai pepper, cayenne, TURMERIC, garlic (but not every time...I mean I would prefer to have it every time but I don't want to scare absolutely EVERYONE away having the smell come out of every orifice...)black pepper, cumin, sea salt.  I eat it all with celery and cucumber and sprinkle sea veggies over it all, i.e. kelp, dulse, sea lettuce. Totally the best ever.  Just like my smoothie this meal has taken me a while to perfect and I love it ever time.  It makes all the loneliness worth it...
I realize, though, that my food lifestyle has isolated me socially, for example: I never eat out, don't go to restaurants, only have maybe three or four close friends who I see once every two or three weeks, who all think I'm crazy, and since I started working 12 hour days I don't really have half an hour to prepare this meal above or make the best smoothie ever during the day, so I basically eat only once per day, usually around 7:00 a.m. in the morning and then go to work.... but I know that in time it will pay off big and I'll meet someone who has the same interests as me and we'll ride off in the sunset to our log cabin in the forest with our spring water and wood burning stove and be as happy as can be, but for now I am an urban, single, early twenty something, nostalgic about high school and the only girlfriend and band I ever really had and all that good stuff, living in an apartment with my parents, haven't been with a girl in 4 years, and spend most of my free time reading Rudolph Steiner or playing guitar or listening to some David Wolfe program, oh yeah did I mention that Star Wars: The Clone Wars in on cartoon network in about 30 minutes...you can call me, you can call me anytime....N-E-R-D!!! But I like it that way for now.

HAPPY 70th Birthday to John Lennon tomorrow!!!!!!
