Annoyed

I'm up OVER 2 pounds more than my last WI. Was I completely perfect last week? No, but if anything I just planned on maintaining. It could have been my ridiculous dinner last night. I convinced BF to try this swanky diner-turned-restaurant and bar and the menu was rather limited. None of the meat options sounded good to me- they were either covered in some weird veggie combination or they were just a type of meat that I won't go near (12 oz Royale, anyone?).

So, I had a pretty delish salad- warm mozzerella, arugula, fig and honey dressing. Wonderful. But, then I had Macaroni Au Gratin (fancy for mac and cheese. All of the children in the restaurant- why you would bring a child there I have no clue- were dining on the same thing). And three glasses of red wine. It was probably one of the most expensive meals he and I have had, and we both left less than satisfied. And the wait was tremendous. From the time we had to wait at the bar for a table, wait for our salads, finish salads, wait for dinner, wait for dinner, order more wine, wait for dinner, stare death rays at the waitress, get dinner, order more wine because I'd like to actually have some WITH my dinner, and then wait for about 20 minutes for the check. No water refills either. The seating capacity at this place was only 48, so even at the most crowded, it's not like the waitstaff had that much going on. What a mood killer.

So I'm stuffed full of very salty cheesey macaroni, my stomach hurts, and my WI was depressing.

Time to make some changes around here! I think we will just have to dine in the rest of this week so I can feel like I have some control again. After the work debacle with the pizza and my soggy pizza, etc, plus last night, I just need to feel like I have the reigns once again.

My to-do list for today includes:

Target to pick up allergy med prescriptions
Library to return books
Gym
Grocery store to (finally) get those avocados for my pea guacamole
Do a little cleaning
Finish paying bills
