Sandwiches for lunch. Or not.

caddymanMy metabolism seems to have ground to a halt.
It's not the fastest metabolism on the planet at the best of times. I think some mad scientist spliced in some sloth genes way back (that would account for my toe nails and habit of wanting to sleep all the time, too). But right now, slow has given way to "All stop!". I had a sandwich at about 10.30 this morning - one of those nice New York style club sandwiches that Sainsbury's sell.
That was nearly two hours ago and it's still there, growling at me. I've tried to drown it with a couple of mugs of coffee, but no. It has proved its resilience. It is there for the long haul and I just know that it will go and leave me to my own devices well after lunch time and well past the availability of lunchtime sustenance. This means that I now have top make a decision: buy some sandwiches at lunchtime in the full anticipation of not eating them before 4 pm, or not bother and hope to hold out until around 8.30 this evening? Can I drink enough coffee to keep the hunger pangs at bay?
Argh, decisions, decisions.
And no, were it an interesting day at work, I shouldn't have written this pointless little piece of blather.
