Why I call myself Balladking

[balladking]

I'm considering recording the amount of time I listen to power ballads per week over a month or so, and then deriving an average amount per week. I'm willing to bet it'd be pretty high!

Oh Kyle.

I thought you were on a health kick. Dousing oatmeal with cinnamon (thank you online dictionary) doesn't seem very healthy... unless, of course, it was purely for the purposes of science.

Oh yeah, totally. There are two Journey songs I like.

All right. Yay for posting comments.

I don't think cinnamon is too bad... just the sugar that most people add along with it.

Then again, I'm half pulling this out of my ass. So.

Oatmeal is really good with berries or brown sugar (I know, not healthy). Milk, too. And other people swear by honey, but really, that's just gross.

Oh Bob,

It would seem unhealthy at first glance, wouldn't it? Let me clear it up. The oatmeal was unflavored, meaning it was nothing but whole oats, which break down slowly in the digestive system and thus don't cause a spike in blood sugar. Add to that the cinnamon, which is an actual spice with antioxidant properties--and get this: it lowers blood glucose level! So, my morning meal consisted of nothing more than a purely healthy dose of brain necessary carbohydrates!

That's my new favorite phrase. "Brain necessary carbohydrates."

Oh Kyle. You know I don't keep up with all this healthy-stuff, but I'm glad you do.

Nope, nothing but cereal and grilled cheese sandwiches for me!

Why does my Kyle need to be healthy?

I'm on a health food diet :(

Five seconds to guess who (even though my face is in the icon) ;)
