oatmeal^2

Ahh nothing like a rest day from running on the hump day of the week.

Treadmill and bike preceded by:


Oatmeal^2
A more modest portion. Still totally awesome. Eaten while watching Ace of Cakes.

Then incline walking, and biking with some mags.


Rest for like 2 hours, walked in the neighborhood, studied...and ate this breakfast:


Yogurt, kabocha, flax, cinnamon, nectarine, strawberries, milk.
Classic combo.


Then class. where i got made fun of in class. NOT COOL. =(
FLU SHOT followed where i waited for A YEAR. My arm is throbbing. INFLUENZA BEWARE

Then we went to gas up the car, and get sinnamon from CVS as well as some cans of soup for mom. she digs cajun chicken gumbo by chunky. never tried it. i guess i shall one of these days.

LUNCH!

Mustard, with some turkey in a wrap, milk, broccoli, and bell pepper inside the wrap. Total deliciousness made possible by tangy mustard. i squirted it every bite. does anyone else do this too?

Then I watched barefoot contessa, and then napped. I get tired these days.


Woke up, studied, emailed professors for rec's, and crunched away during Barefoot Contessa again.

Dinner!

Salmon, green beans (haricot vert) and tortilla and milk.


AND! BREAKING NEWS! literally! OUR MICROWAVE IS BROKEN! Sadness.

We are getting a new one tomorrow. This dinner i had to heat my food up in the convection oven. i wonder how this will affect my pretreadmill snack tomorrow. cereal? pb and fruit? who knows. i'm venturing into the UNKNOWN!

Now i'm going to take a shower, i'm kinda sticky, and watch some tv. maybe glee.

=D
ALMOST THE WEEKEND!
