Last night was a friend's birthday, so after belly dancing, I headed out to meet up with the peeps at the best-named bar in town - Liquor Lyles. I rolled in just in time for the happy hour to start - at 9pm. Who has a 9pm happy hour? Liquor Lyles. And it lasted until midnight. Two-for-one drinks! Discounted apps (love those tots!!)! Raffle drawings! It was a very fun night.
Until I remembered that I'm trying to lose seven pounds.
So today I am on a self-imposed carb hiatus to repent for my tater-tot and onion ring sins. And my body is not happy about it. Not one bit. Going out on a weeknight and then abstaining from carbs? That's a deadly combo. I am a bit grumpy today. And by grumpy, I mean you might want to stay out of my way today for fear of getting caught under my death glare.
Do you know what will bust this foul mood? Something that will immediately cheer me up? A drink (I'm not an alcoholic...I swear). With my friend and running buddy. Karen and I are going out after work. I can already feel the stress melting away as I drown my sorrows in wine and cheese.
And so the vicious cycle continues.
