Go pancakes!

Today I got angrier than I remember getting in a LONG time.
I had a dentist appointment, at 4:00. I get out of school at 3:00, but due to my incredibly inefficient bus system, I NEVER get home a minute before 3:50.
Someone had to pick me up if I was going to make it, and have time to pack for swimming after at 5:00.
But my mom forgot to tell my brother to pick me up. I called her after school, at 3:03 to ask her who was picking me up. She said my brother was doing it, and she called me back at 3:10 to say that she'd called my brother and asked him to pick me up.
I was mad because she should've done it herself. I don't know where he was, but I was sitting in the cold until 3:45 when he showed up. 45 minutes outside. Lovely.
We got home at 3:50. Hooray. I should've just taken the bus. Would've been warmer.

But I was PISSED, because I had no time to eat. I was FURIOUS at my mom for not picking me up herself, and now I had to go to swimming, and I wouldn't have eaten in 5 hours, and the last time I ate I didn't have THAT much either...
I had to take a second to regain composure. "*Deep breath* Yes, that was dopey of her, but you've done worse. It wasn't that hard of a mistake to make. Anyway, what's the point of getting angry?"
I felt better then.
And I lived through swimming.

But, after swimming, I was RAVENOUS. I'd heard that today was National Pancake Day at IHOP. You could get a FREE short stack of pancakes.
Dibs.
But, my brother told me I shouldn't go, because he went earlier, and the line was so big it wouldn't fit in the resturant.

No matter. No one's cooking tastes better than your own.
So I cooked my own pancakes. They WERE pretty good.
I ate 11 silver dollar size. Lots of syrup.
THAT should show all you people who complain about me not eating enough. I can eat when I want to.

There isn't a sharp line dividing humans from the rest of the animal kingdom. It's a very wuzzie line...and it's getting wuzzier all the time. - Jane Goodall.

And... The Dentist?

Did you make the appointment?

And... does 11 fit into your array (along with 7) of magical portions? Or, were you just accessing the next prime number? Curious minds... you know :)

But... my memory of silver dollars suggests that those were mighty small pancakes.

True that - Silver dollars,

True that - Silver dollars, as to my recollection, aren't really large at all... 11 would probably equal 3 of the kind o' pancakes that I make. I think last time I made pancakes... I ate five? Yea - that sounds right.

And we won't talk about how much butter I put on them... =\

But all that's all okay! Because I can't gain weight. Seriously, I haven't exercised routinely in half a year, and I still haven't gained any weight. I'm at 140 lbs. And I've been this weight for twoish years.

Ouch. That's really sucky

Ouch. That's really sucky =\

My problem is that I never stop feeling hungry. When I got home from skiing at five thirty, I ate a whole thing of naan (it's an Afghani/Pakistani/Indian bread), then I drank a glass of milk, made soup, ate a bowl of that, then ate two slices of pizza, had another bowl of soup and another glass of milk, and some how, I'm still hungry. All within two hours. I'll probably have another bowl of soup and another two slices of pizza within the next hour too....
