Day One Food Diary

-

Day 1:

Breakfast (7:00 a.m.): One slice of Whole Foods brand hearty wheat bread with organic wild blueberry jam and coffee with soy milk and one teaspoon of sugar. I was pretty nervous about the soy milk but it wasn't bad at all. The coffee was a little bit lighter than I like, but I think tomorrow I’ll put a little bit more of the soy milk in and see how it goes.

Lunch (11:30 a.m.): Amy’s Black Bean Vegetable Enchilada (http://www.amys.com/products/product-detail/entrees/000081). This is described on the website as “Two tortillas made from freshly ground organic corn, filled with a blend of organic black beans, tofu and vegetables and covered with a traditional Mexican sauce.” I had never had tofu before, but I really didn't notice it. The only thing about this was that is was low in calories but super high in salt.

Dinner (6:30 p.m.): Sesame Peanut Noodles from the recipe below. Luckily my g-uncle happened to show up just as I was starting to slice up the veggies and I wasn't really sure how to toast sesame seeds so he helped me out with that too. I'm not usually to crazy about cold pasta but I actually liked this. The peanut sauce was good. If I was going to make it again, I might add tomatoes and some more crushed red pepper, but overall pretty good, and much better after it sat for a little bit.

Snacks: Apple and handful of almonds, tangerine, and some tortilla chips with peach salsa.

So I'm on the phone at about 3:15 doing an exit interview with yet another disgruntled employee who is leaving. I always shut the door to my office when I'm on calls like this because, frankly, I work with retards who will stand in front of me the entire time I'm on the phone to wait for me to finish. I'm so glad that working in HR, my workspace is private and people respect the confidentiality of my role. Awesome! As I said, I'm on the phone, and my door is shut. One co-worker barges in and tried to get my attention. I point to the phone and mouth "come back later". A second one does the same thing, followed by a third, fourth, fifth, and finally sixth. Through my window that looks into the hallway in my office, I see that a small group has gathered. Finally, Julia (the girl I share an office with) goes out into the hallway to see what's going on. Five seconds later, she walks back into the office, shuts the door, glances at me, and sits down...

Not much going on, too early for March Madness, NESN doesn't put enough Spring Training on TV, so instead, I'm going to post something that I randomly came across today and thoroughly enjoyed. (promise I'll have a good post Monday morning!) A Nation's destination: Destiny By Bill Simmons Page 2 I woke up thinking about the Red Sox. Answered e-mails, read the paper, showered, shaved, never stopped thinking about the Red Sox. Found that I was so excited, I could barely keep a thought in my head. Skipped through the day's routine doing ordinary things, thinking the entire time, "Holy crap, my life could be completely different in eight hours." Now it's time to join the ranks of the normal baseball fans. Thank God. Is this how parents feel when they're about to have a baby? Like nothing has changed, but everything's about to change? That's how I felt yesterday. The Red Sox were about to win the World Series. And I was about to become Just Anoth...
