Tim and I went out for a romantic dinner on Friday. SPOILER ALERT: We were asleep by 10:00 PM, by we—I mean he was asleep by 10:00 PM. Old like WHAT!
I digress.
After waiting roughly ten years for a table {Shut your mouth, I do not exaggerate much} we met our waitress, Low Talker. I am not shitting you. Don’t know her name, because I could not for the life of me understand one damn word out of the woman’s mouth. I almost agreed to buy an entire dessert menu, because I thought she was offering more bread. It was intense. I became nervous every time she spoke to me. The restaurant was loud anyway, because the people behind us were having a political discussion. By discussion, I mean a Democrat and a Republican sat down for an Italian dinner, drank too much wine, and decided to talk about abortion, the fiscal year, Obama, and religion. Really. Fucking. LOUDLY. It was swell. Swell. I did get from the conversation, they work together. I’m guessing this morning was a little awkward. I’m hoping for it, because between Fox News and Low Talker----my dinner was ridiculously uncomfortable. I drowned everyone out with mass portions of complimentary bread though… so I was fine.
After my Saturday workout, I snuggled with Bukka and Fat Sucker while watching “Mars Needs Moms.” Turns out this was exactly what we needed. See, the two younger boys have developed a bit of a sassy tongue that we are in the process of eliminating. This movie freaked them the hell out. Someone could take my Mommy? OHMYGODNO! I was back on the Mommy Pedal Stool… for about 24 hours.
Sunday, Tim and I finished Phase 1 of the P90X2. I have lost about 5 pounds. That’s. It. Maybe if I didn’t drown my discomforts in refined sugars and white flour products… who knows? My arms are gaining definition, but I need immediate results. Tim and I are contemplating Clean Eating. I’m not fully committing to this yet. I’m going to ease into it. Tosca Reno scares, yet motivates me at the same time. It’s not that we eat a lot of junk. We aren’t processed food-type people, but I would need to start making our own breads and substituting white flour for wheat flour, etc… It’s doable, but I need something flexible to get the ball rolling. I mean, just scouting out chia seeds today made me want to punch someone in their left nut.
Your cartoon hair is so luscious.
ReplyDeleteAkilah, Thank you. I tried very hard to keep things realistic. lol.
ReplyDeleteI wish my cartoon hair looked like yours. I also wish I knew what chia seeds are - is it the same seeds used on the chia pet? I wonder. Time to google it.
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to jump into chia seeds immediately. Just start making small changes. I know, I know... But seriously. Do the small things. More fruit. More vegetables. I have started making sure that I get 5-7 servings of fruits and vegetables during the day. The rest of the plan? Nothing. I eat 5-7 servings of fruits and vegetables. The "diet" kind of takes care of itself after that. Try mowing down a bowl of broccoli and cauliflower and then try to eat some Taco Bell. Not gonna happen.
ReplyDeleteScribe, What did we do before Google?
ReplyDeleteKate, I kept this in mind when grocery shopping last night.
