Could be a Fun Day

Last night after work I got a text asking if I could cover for a site that was dealing with a big system failure.  Sure, I said.  They were hoping to have users back on the system at 8:30.  Works for me.  By 10:30 my phone hadn’t rung so I was feeling optimistic.  I should have known better.  The phone rang at 1:30 this morning.  By 2:30 I was told I could go back to bed.  That was good then, but not now.  Some of my co-workers heroically worked through the night, but difficulties persist.  That leads to Robbie and his group having an interesting Friday.

Oh weekend, you are so close yet so far away.  So much stands between us.

Tofu

I was a good boy today. I managed to go the whole working at home day without splurging on junk food. I followed the weight watchers rules to the letter. Then for dinner I did something…

Insane!

Well, not really but… really.

Jen made a really delicious veggie stir fry for dinner tonight, along with some quinoa. You might think the quinoa was the insane thing, but we’ve been eating that since just after New Year and I really like it. No, the craziness was in the stir fry, right along with the spectacular broccoli.

Tofu.

Not only did she make it… but I…

(wait for it)…

ATE SOME!

The world’s pickiest eater had fish over the weekend and now he’s had tofu. Un-be-freakin’-lieveable!

The first bite of tofu was okay. The taste was sort of non-existent but the texture was a little creepy. The second bite… not so much. The texture just got to me. I didn’t like it.

That’s not the point of this post though.

The point is THE WORLD’S PICKIEST EATER IS TRYING CRAZY NEW THINGS! Quinoa, fish, tofu! What the hell has happened to me? They are going to kick me out of the picky eater’s club!

(and I am okay with that)
