largo Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 Hey guys and girls I suppose it's not entirly gender bias. Well anyway heres the thing my girlfriend left to spend the weeked with her sister who's having a kid, reason why I didn't go.(that and she said I would just be in the way, man it sucks when your girlfriend treats you like you're five.) Now she left at around 3p.m. so now it's like 8 and I still haven't eaten anything yet. I have a truly divstating problem you see there's nothing in the refegerator that resembles food that I would know of or how to cook. I look through the freezer for any hotpockets or frozen pizza's there are none. So I have absolutely no food to eat, now I know what you're all thinking why not go out to eat or maybe better yet go to the grocery(sp? it's been a long while since I've been in one.) But there is a problem I have no car, we only have one car I normal play taxi driver for her when she needs to go some where and since she works near the college I spend most of my day I drop her off before I go to class or she kicks me out of bed on off days to give her a ride. But today since I wasn't going with her took the car. Now there is always the ever fav. take-out my problem for this one is that I don't have enough cash to pay for it and since I'm not aloud to use the credit or debit cards I don't have any way to pay for it. Well I just thought I should let everyone know of my suffering. Oh wait a second I see a squarl(sp?) outside my window, I guess I might eat something tonight after all. Quote
*zeo Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 Just make sure you cook it well, you definitely don't want to catch any of the parasites it might be carrying. Or you could just walk to the grocery or supermarket? Unless you are over 5 miles from the nearest sign of civilization? Then I'll give you links to survivalist websites. Unless of course you have a friend or nearby relative that can come visit with emergency rations? Quote

largo Posted February 24, 2007 Author Posted February 24, 2007 Oh I wish I had friends in my area to give me a lift but I live out in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma so yah that's not happining anytime soon. As for the pantry that was one of the first places I looked all we have are cans of veggies and a box of instant potatos that were opened used once and forgotten about. But I did manage I ate all of the candy in my girlfriends secret stash but don't tell her it was me. I deny it, it was the damn cat. That and like 6 cans of veggies(I wanna puke from all of that green stuff.) Also if it isn't appearent I couldn't cook my way out of a ketchen full of ingredents to make the best food in the world and I'd be lost, but hey that's the sit I'm in right now. But the most depressing thing about it is if I had cought the little critter I wouldn't know what to do with it. I don't want to sound sterotypical or anything but my girlfriend can seriously cook some good food, makes me realize how spolied I really am. Quote
*zeo Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 You should have planned ahead for situations like this then. And stocked yourself with coldcuts to make sandwiches (no cooking skill required) Or at least peanut butter, unless you're allergic of course. But a single jar can last you weeks. Or pasta (just boil in water), with marinara sauce, brown gravy, etc. which can be bought in jars which just need to be heated up and served. Or Eggs (fry or boil or just scamble for easy cooking) If boiled you can just make hard boiled eggs, peel the shell and eat. Or even those instant noodle soup packages, just add hot water and wait 5 minutes per serving. Or at the very least have your own stash of snacks. But you seem to be stuck so here's a survival guide site. http://www.wilderness-survival.net/ And keep hydrated, you can survive weeks without food but only hours to days without water. Also drinking a lot helps you feel less hungry but don't just drink water. Too much water all at once can actually make you sick or even kill you. Boil water and make yourself tea or something like that, will also help keep your energy levels up. And Good Luck. Quote
