…I’m at home in my jammies watching Harry Potter movies. I know I know, you’re like “holy shit, Debbie leads an exciting and sexy life” and please, don’t be jealous. You too can drink tea in gaucho pants and fuzzy socks. You too can watch Harry Potter movies 1-5, only taking a break to do a Bhangra dance workout. You too can jump in surprise and excitement when the ringing phone breaks the monotony, only to have your stomach drop in disappointment as it’s not someone vaguely interested in how you’re doing…but alas, a telemarketer.
It’s called having no life and it’s free to everyone.
It’s fucking cold today. I love it, but I would have like to run today and it was just too damn cold.
I did go out to dinner last night with my mom and stepdad. We went to a seafood restaurant and it was heaven. I chucked my diet out for the dinner and ate whatever I wanted. The table next to us was celebrating their friend’s 50th birthday and when I got a good look at the woman, she looked 70. My mom is 53 and the woman looked like she could be her mother. People need to start taking care of themselves a bit more.
I lost 7 lbs this week. Yes, I was shocked too. I suppose eating only 1,000 calories a day works. And working out. I’ll keep you all updated on my progress. I’m only doing this 1,000 calorie a day crap for 4 more weeks.
I’ve also been doing very well being a vegetarian. I’m trying to eat a balanced and varied amount of food. I found an amazing produce spot at the Reading Terminal Market. They have everything. Seriously. I got a package of shitake mushrooms for $1.68. I almost peed myself I was so excited. I love that I can go there during my lunch hour and get the things I need for dinner. Convenient, cheap, and fresh. I’m about to pee with excitement again.
Yes, I get that excited over food.
And I want to say thank you to HDW for my awesome gift. I can’t wait to read it, as I heard great reviews saying it’s hilarious and quite well written. I read his first book, The Know It All, and enjoyed it immensely.
So – you should email me and tell me what a normal menu looks like for you on this 1,000 day calorie stuff. I would like to try it, but I lack the ‘get up and go’ on what to eat.
Oh, and if wine is 500 calories or something, then I will have met my 1000 quota at happy hour alone.
🙂
HAPPY ALMOST BIRTHDAY!
So all I have to do to be as cool as you is to sit on my ass all day and watch Harry Potter movies?
WOO HOO!!!!
Oh, wait, you worked out too.
Fuck.
You have a life. You’re a great writer and a better person. A belated Happy Birthday, Debbie. You make other lives better. Love ya.
