Oh good lord. I'm pretty sure I just undid the effects of all the dieting of the week. This is what happens when I'm home alone.
I remembered, just in time, that I was up an hour so I could leave early today. I got home mid afternoon. What to do? I remembered that there was a Fat Tire in the fridge. Mmmmm tasty beer. I opened the fridge, and I noticed the bacon. Mmmm tasty bacon. So I had a beer and a slice of turkey bacon.
The problem is that after the beer my inhibitions were lowered.
After that, I had a little bag of Doritos. And another beer (vanilla porter, this time). Uh oh.
I think I ate a slice of pizza. And a couple of slices of pickles. And then, virtuously, some sliced up .. um.. what are those things called? That are crunchy? Celery. Yeah. Celery.
Then I decided it would be good if I left the vicinity of the kitchen.
I went and watched a documentary about Herman Mudgett, AKA HH Holmes, America's first serial killer. A cheerful film, appropriate to the season.
Then, unfortunately, I wandered toward the back of the house again. I got some lemon lime seltzer water out of the fridge. And some lemon sorbet. And then a blueberry pancake.
I'm going to have to go to bed early or there isn't going to be any food left when JD gets home.
I was thinking that the weekend would be a brief reintroduction to bachelor life, but when I lived alone? I never had this much food in the house. It is hard to make a pig of yourself with a box of Cheerios, some spoiled milk, and a half full bottle of ketchup. But when your everloving husband has left most of a pizza, two quarts of blueberry pancakes, several liquid quarts of beer, and I don't know what else but the fridge is full? It is easy to make a pig of yourself.
Wish me luck on eating healthy tomorrow. But save your breath on Sunday, because I'm going to the Renaissance Festival. I'm going to wear a wench outfit (without the stupid squeezy bodice, but don't worry, I'll be covered). I'm going to drink beer and leer at men in tights. And there is a very good chance that I'm going to eat something on a stick.
I think the squeezy bodice is a prerequisite to being a wench.... I think it's some kind of regulation.
ReplyDeleteYes, but have you tried wearing one? While breathing?
