yikes! (lyn)


I have been avoiding my scale, but today decide it’s time.  129.  I haven’t seen such a high number since March 2010.  Last year at this time I weighed 122.  I am not buying new clothes. So beginning today I will start eating more restrictively.

A few minutes after making this pledge, my phone rings.  It’s my sister, Valerie.  She’s in the city and suggests getting together.  We first consider museums.  I always consider museums when someone asks, “Do you want to get together and do something today?”  I must think by considering them I am fulfilling my cultural obligation to visit them.  In the end we meet for lunch at Todd English’s Food Court at the Plaza. 

The choices there are many.  Valerie gets sushi (from Sushi of Gari no less) and I get a less healthy meal of three half sandwiches from Luke’s: one lobster, one crab, and one shrimp, plus a small bag of chips. 

Going to a museum would have been fewer calories, but I doubt it would have been more fun.
