iabervon's Journal: Don't do this

My house had a party on Saturday. That morning I got up late, had a big breakfast, and then started to clean up to get ready. By the time I was done, it was time for the party (I got distracted for a while). So I didn't get a second meal, although I ate a bunch of snack and dessert food during the party.

Sunday morning, I slept late, ate another reasonably-sized breakfast, and then hung around the house, but didn't have lunch, since it was getting close to time for dinner. As I was getting ready to make dinner, my roommate cut his finger on a can. Blood doesn't bother me, but wounds make me a little light-headed, and I was also really low on food by this point. So I'm feeling dizzy, and I go and sit on the couch. But that isn't going to get me any food, so I get up after a bit when I'm not feeling quite as bad, and I put a can of stew in the microwave, and then I go and wash out the can for recycling.
