I mentioned yesterday that I was meeting a couple of fellow bloggers for lunch today and I'm still really looking forward to that. I'm all ready to go, in fact, and it's only 9AM - I'm not meeting them until around 11:30AM... I've got a couple of hours.
Yesterday, I found the school lunch menu in Buddy's backpack and noticed on the back, where they list other activities planned for the month, that on April 3, the teachers and staff would be working at the St. Albans McDonald's to raise money for the school. They did this last year and it was a blast, so I'm looking forward to going again. I told the Evil Twin about it this morning - last year, he was still working his 4 day, 10 hour a day schedule, so having dinner with him was almost always not a possibility. Now, he's home earlier, so we'll all go to McD's together after he gets home! Two meals out in one day! What a jackpot for me (not for my waistline, but for my culinary skillz - at least they get a break).
For the last couple (okay, 5 or so) days, I've been rather "irritable". The Evil Twin has wondered aloud what my problem is. Hmmmm. We've been living together for 16 years. Prior to me, he was in quite a few long term relationships, so he's no stranger to females or their anatomy/biological make-up. Why can't men figure it out? Your wife/girlfriend/friend with benefits is acting crabby. You haven't done anything wrong. What might the problem be?
If you guessed PMS, pat yourself on the back. Accept it and move on. Trust me, when guys get snippy about the 'tude and make hateful comments, us ladies have the "Burning Bed" fantasy.
I know lunch with my girlfriends will help and so will food. Lots of it. This Slim Fast "drink" isn't cutting it.
Have fun at lunch! I was doing slim fast... I've sort of dropped the diet thing over the last few weeks. I know I've got to get started again, but honestly I'm just not feeling at all motivated. Slim Fast does get old after a while doesnt it?
ReplyDeleteugh... I don't think I could do slim fast. I keep it around to use as a breakfast replacement when I'm running late and have to have something I can 'eat" in the car, but all the time? Uh-uh.
ReplyDeleteThe 5 factor diet is going well, though. I don't know if I could call it a diet -- it's pretty much just logic, but the exercise portion of the program is cool because it's a real workout you can actually do at home, and it's different every day so you don't get bored. I'm too ADD for the same thing all the time.
I hope lunch was fun!

Shit. Double post.
ReplyDeleteDude - looking forward to all the deets on lunch. Much fun to get together with buddies new and old!
ReplyDeleteHope the lunch was fun....have not done slim fast but way back when I did that breakfast drink stuff...blaghh
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how many times I started to make one point or another and halfway there we were already off onto another point. That's when you know you're having fun.
ReplyDeleteI thought of this because I'm just now seeing the Burning Bed fantasy. When you mentioned it today, I was going to say that a guy who claimed to be nephew of the Bed Burning wife from the Burning Bed. Don't know whether it was true or not. He exposed himself to another employee during work (kinda like hey look over here and ta da there it hangs) and had to leave the company earlier than expected.
...who claimed to be the nephew (blah blah blah)...used to work at the same place I did in Ohio.
ReplyDeleteDetails. I'm sucking with those lately.
A bloggers lunch? Cool. I imagine it would involve one person bringing up a topic and then the others say "LOLZ" :-p Hope you will post about the experience!
