Its Saturday, so no work to keep me distracted. I woke up real early and took care of my SWF and got a sloppy BM out of the way before 7:30.
I heard the kids start to stir so I started breakfast for them.
It was just scrambled eggs and toast. No big deal, right? Never has something as simple as eggs and toast looked so appetizing. Both of the kids were very hungry and ate several slices of toast combined. Some with melted butter and grape jelly, some with melted butter, cinnamon, and a wee bit of sugar.
Damn, it was all I could do not to jam a whole slice into my mouth.
But I didn't. I kept my cool and drank some lemonade.
I have a bone to pick with everyone who has ever done this fast and went on to tell people that the Lemonade is really good. Oh yeah compared to what? Nothing? Why yes, its a fantastic alternative to nothing. But compared to real food, it sucks. It sucks out loud. A turd on a cracker might taste like cotton candy if you have nothing else to eat, but if given the choice between an Italian Beef/Sausage combo, smothered in giardinara, and completely soaked in au jus and drinking this effin' lemonade, well I am going to eat the combo.
Took my daughter to a birthday party. Watched a bunch of cute kiddies devour cupcakes and ice cream. I was fine, didn't lose my grip. But I really would have loved one of those cupcakes, damn.
Made lunch for my daughter. Classic PB&J. Only thing is that when I gave her the sandwich and started to clean up the mess, right before I tossed the knife into the sink I licked off the peanut butter and jelly. I realized my snafu before I swallowed and quickly spat out the ever so tasty PB&J and rinsed my mouth.
That little episode tells me that I will succeed in making it 10 days. If I was going to break I would have stuck my hand into the PB jar and swabbed some of that peanut butter gooey goodness into my mouth.
So 4 days in the books. After day 5 I will be back at work. Its much easier to do this with work to distract you. Time to go drink some of that delicious lemonade.
“Equality, rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences; wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism” Barry Goldwater, 1963
