OMG I appreciate that this is kinda strange but i just have to exhort the virtues of Stroganoff! Well the ready meal version from tesco anyway. It is officially my new favourite meal. I have to try other versions. Yes i'm sad.
But at least I eat! I am in fact a total pig. I love food. Is that bad? I'm pretty sure that it's definately not 'fashionable'. Ok maybe I shouldn't eat quite as much chocolate as I do, or the flapjack that our lovely school dinner ladies cook. Especially considering i'm diabetic. But that is a discussion for me, my nurse and my quite possibly appalled dietition.
Plus, I work it off! I'm still a size 12/14 for god's sake. (english sizes obviously, I love the fact that in America i'm like an 8/10!)
I don't get why so many girls my age don't eat. Where's the pleasure in life?! Enjoy the huge range of flavours and the wonderful feeling of a full stomach!
And if you're worried about a smooth silluette in that pretty dress- wear some stomach-holding-in-knickers. Which is exactly what I intend to do the next time I go out.
So keep the Stroganoff coming!

Technician fashion (or lack of)
Why didn't I get a nice office job? You know, one where I could wear nice, smart clothes and, most importantly, HEELS?
The receptionists at work always look good, trust me. I'm talking suits, jewellery and the aforementioned heels. The teachers dress similarly too. The women anyway.
And then there's me.
I'm a technician. I'm running between 2 different departments all day which are, of course, at opposite ends of the school. And when i'm there sitting down is not part of my job description. So no heels for me. I have boots. Boring, flat boots. And cheap.
Which brings me to the next problem. On a daily basis I work with wood (dusty), metal (greasy) and chemicals (everything!). I already have lovely orange blobs from god only knows what chemical on a nice black top. Only cheap clothes possible then.
And jewellery? Not a chance. machines? chemicals? Bunsen burners? yeah. No jewellery. Which is a bugger cos that's pretty much how I do anything with any outfit. Keep it simple, work the statement necklace, sorted. Damn.
So yeah. should've got an office job. Or even better, work from home then I can stay in my scruffy jeans and baggy tshirt.
Because even style has limits.
