Sticky-floor bars and Chinese food
Started Weight Watchers again. I started in September and made myself go before I could talk myself out of it. It was a Monday, which you would think would be good. Get myself there first thing in the week. Except that Monday comes after the weekend. I went the first week and was gung ho mentally, not so much in practice. I went back and had gained a pound. Yeah. So after paying $100+ I copped out and didnt go back. Then all the pregnancy, job loss and all encompassing depression kicked in which just kicked my ass some more. So I've resigned myself to the fact that I need to still lose the weight and I'm going to be smart now and only pay for the meetings I go to, but I also changed the days. Saturdays at 7:30am. Yes AM.
I wanted like a 6pm Friday meeting but that wasnt going to happen because I have grad class every other Friday night at 5:30. And then I thought about maybe a Saturday morning. Yeah the meeting option was either 7:30 or 9. I also have grad class Saturday at 9 so that was a no go.
Friday night I went out with Eileen. We went to this little place on Park Ave. called Magnolia. We both got Buffalo Chicken Salad's (on her recommendation). It was absolutely delicious! After that we went to the Strath for drinks. Now I love the Strath. Its a chill spot, not some over-crowded sticky-floored bar with girls in mini skirts and uggs. I like it because its a classy place, I mean its a 4 star hotel with a bar in it. Both of which are fabulous. It's slightly scary that I can call myself a regular there, but its pretty nice when you walk in the door and they hand you your martini of choice.
Eileen had fun I think. Save for the dumb fuck who talked our ears off for an hour and then had the cajones to ask if we wanted to go someplace else for a drink. Yeah no. We left and get back to her apartment so I can get my car. Only her roommate's friends have completely blocked me in and are out bar crawling at the aforementioned sticky floor kind. We end up having to drive down to the bar to get her keys.
Cut to me driving home in the car on the phone with Dom. I'd told him I was going out earlier and he was going bowling (I laughed my ass of internally). So he'd decided that he was going to come to Rochester after bowling. I tried to call him back and tell him to hold off and come Saturday morning but he'd already left. So he got here around 2:30am. I had JUST gone to sleep when he called and told me he was at my door.
So a little while later I'm back in my bed headed off to dreamland when my bed decided to umm...break. Yeah 3:30am Dom and I are half asleep trying to right my bed after it made a unceremonious drop,crash, bang, boom. We ended up having to take my risers out because the damn thing just wouldnt stay upright. Now my bed looks weird because I grew accustomed to it being about 6 inches higher, now it looks like it belongs to a little person.
What else what else.
OH back to weight watchers! So Saturday morning my alarm goes off at five of seven. My ass actually WENT! On like 3.5 hours of sleep! So on the way home my dumb ass goes to starbucks, I however got a 3-point skinny latte! Not nearly as delicious as my Soy Carmel Macchiato's but I'm trying to be good here. So later we go to Perkins and I got a really healthy breakfast and was so proud of myself for resisting hashbrowns. I got an eggbeater omlette with veggies, a bowl of fruit and whole wheat toast. I was so damn hungry I ate every bite and stopped myself before I resorted to licking the plate clean.
We went and saw Valkeryie. I wanted to see it actually as much as I dislike Tom Cruise. But I'm a sucker for a historical drama. And it was pretty damn awesome.
We got out of the movie and there was a mini blizzard coming down. I suggested we order in instead of driving in the shit called snow.
Yeah too bad we ordered Chinese on my suggestion and I ate like a damn psycho. It was SO good! But I'm going to be better for the rest of the week. I'm going to the gym tomorrow and I've eaten a bowl of cereal and a banana for the last few days for breakfast and salads too.
Tomorrow I'm meeting with a rep from Aerotek, maybe they'll find me a paycheck even if its just temporary. And I also have to go back to MCC because I signed up for two classes and they put me in the wrong one for one of the classes. And then I'm going to Fisher to go to the gym and talk to the assistant of the Education dept. about what I have to do to redo my observation hours after McBitch decided to try and pull shit on me. I love that I was totally honest with Fisher, they have my back which makes me feel SO good. After all the drama I've had it feels really nice to not feel like the world is against me.
