Eat, Drink, and...be Bloated.

Today was.  And that's about all I can say.  Oh...and I'll say this:  if you're a dude reading this blog there may be mention of certain girl issues. 


We all have those days where things are amazingly good and then go to incredibly bleak.  Perhaps not.  It might just be me.  That whole bipolar mood swing thing.  And it can definitely be aggravated by "that time of the month."  And in order to combat this whole mood swing issue...I decided that my nice thing for today would be to just take it easy on myself.  To indulge in the peanut butter ice cream STRAIGHT from the container.  To have a little Taco John's fiesta in my bedroom while watching "How I Met Your Mother," and to drink a bottle (small) of Arbor Mist because it sounded good.


In retrospect...I realize that while taking it easy was a good idea...the wisdom of "moderation" is not to be forgotten.  This is important.  For now, while I'm no longer having severe ups/downs or laughing one second so hard that I literally cry sad tears the next...I'm just laying on my bed...sweating cause it's hot...and in severe pain.  My stomach is mad at me...my cramps haven't gone away (despite the unhealthy amount of Midol I've guzzled today) and I'm at a point where I'm neither tired nor awake...I'm in a food coma.


Which is a fine place to be after a meal at say, Craftsteak, or Budakkan.  But...Taco John's?  Arbor Mist?  Blue Bunny ice cream?  This screams slightly pathetic.  So lesson learned.  Moderation is the key.  And now that I've taken it easy on myself today...I'm going to have to work extra hard tomorrow at the gym...and work...and packing.


And drink a ton of water to avoid the bloat...
