Day 77

Yesterday ended up being a good day, though unlike the day before, this day didn't end with a bang... It was more of a whimper.

Contrary to what I had planned on doing today, I did end up having a banana and a breakfast bar, somewhere around 11:30 a.m. After that, I had a popcorn cake mid-afternoon, and didn't really get hungry until I started playing poker early evening. The plan at poker was to order pizza, so when they told us a 60-minute time for deliver, I snacked on an apple. And then once the pizza came I had a couple of slices of cheese pizza with green peppers (in honor of St. Patrick's Day!).

I went to work briefly yesterday and my boss gave me three boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. I have now lived in the same apartment as these boxes of cookies and haven't had a single one. That, my friends, is quite the accomplishment, because under normal circumstances those cookies woudln't have seen a second day in my presence.

So while I was happy about my eating habits all day, I was less happy about my poker playing. At certain times I just couldn't find any good cards, but I was also folding stupidly and not calling when I should have, thus giving up some pots I could have won. Oh well. Down $50. The good thing is, I feel like, after two night so fit, poker playing is out of my system for some time. It'll probably be at least 2 or 3 weeks before I play again.

So that was the day. Now, some facts:

So today I'm having some of my close friends over for dinner. I still haven't settled on what to make for dinner, since I plan on shopping for a new gas grill. If I find a grill in my price range, I'll buy it and grill something up for dinner. If I don't find a grill, who knows what the hell I'll make!
