As you can tell from my last post, I was a bit of a mess this morning during breakfast. But thanks to chatting with Jenn about everything, I was able to get some serious frustration out of my head. For the time being of course.
I’m not really going to talk about most of my day because I would just be whining. I don’t want to be all woe-is-me, because it’s not going to do me any good. I’ll just say, I shed my tears for today, tomorrow is a new day, and I’m only about 4 1/2 weeks from my 1/2 marathon and seeing my mom/dad.
The countdown shall commence.
But I did end the night on a good note since my coworker and I got invited to dinner at a neighbors house down the road, in which they graciously made sure that I had substance to eat for dinner: beans! I forgot my camera, so no pictures, but I had a green salad w/ dressing, some sort of brown bean, and a small roasted red potato w/ lots of pepper and some butter. Yum.
And then afterwards, (Kelly, you would be jealous; this was totally up your alley) I got a nice history lesson of Smith Point and got to check out lots of artifacts dating back over 800-900 years! Lots of broken Indian pottery, beads, arrowheads, flint, and even bones from a man who was eaten for a ceremony. Ew, cannibalism at its finest. There were human teeth everywhere (seriously, that creeped me out; reminded me of the Blair Witch Project…lol, what am I, twelve?!). It was interesting to learn about all the things that went around here just over 150-200 years ago…to think, Sam Houston, the man who wrote the Peterson field guide, the man who founded the Audubon Society, Napoleon’s General, and many more, have been to this very spot! Amazing I tell you!
I came home for much needed dessert/chocolate craving and gave into a mix of WF popcorn and WF vegan chocolate chips.
And now I’m off to bed. This chick is exhausted. Hopefully tonight will be much better sleep.
Oh, but I don’t want to forget, a shout out to my bestie who left me the best comment on my Facebook tonight…I don’t know what I’d do without you.
“So I've been doing a lot of thinking. of all the boyfriends I've ever had, none of them have taken me out for a prime rib dinner. and i think that after all the trouble I've been through (you know what I'm talking about) that i deserve a guy who won't make me go 50/50 on a date. I'm going to hold out for my god damned prime rib dinner. and i was thinking that you should figure out what the vegetarian equivalent is and wait for the kind of guy who WANTS to take you out for it. so screw (not literally) all the Al's, Kyle's and Brad's of the world. hold out for Mr. vegetarian-equivalent-of-prime-rib.”

Glad you're feeling a bit better. Always nice to have something to look forward to during stressful times. Glad you got out for a nice din din at the neighbors and your bestie rocks! What a cute message
i love the new picture in the header!
and what a great note :) I wonder what the prime rib equivalent is...but she's right! I didn't have very many boyfriends before dating my now husband, but getting (basically) this same advice is what made me so picky. You DESERVE someone who treats you like a queen. You're worth it. And when you find that person, you'll know.
I'm hoping to get to the post office today if I can!!! Don't hold me to it, but either way, they'll be on their way soon :)
I love your new header! I also think your friend has a great theory and you definitely deserve the prime rib equivalent! :)
That's so true! Don't settle for someone who doesn't appreciate you! You're awesome and beautiful and smart.
It is so true! Mr. Prime Rib is out there. But until then, you are pretty fabulous on your own and I hope you know that :) xo
Your friend is very sweet! I think I need to go leave a comment like that to my own bestie :) Have a great day!
hahahah I love the comment from the bestie. SO TRUE. We're damn great women. What are we doing NOT being w/the perfect dudes for us???
i am glad you are feeling better! Stay postive and look forward :)
