It's my relationship with the alcohol, it's my relationship with the cookie, it's my relationship with the bag of peanuts, it's my relationship with any of these things that, although I have lowered the level of toxicity on some of these foods...But so I eat the whole thing and it's a pretty big portion, and now I'm fucking full and I'm bloated, and I don't know if it was like the vinegar red I made or the onions or the peppers, but I'm all fucking gassy and I feel full and I feel fat and it's like cold outside. And I said to myself: I said you need to think about the portion control.
