Raning and Italian Food

It is a crummy day outside today. I hit snooze until 7am....have to get moving fast this morning. It is cloudy out but in the 40's which is nice. My friend Ellen is making me dinner tonight, Italian food....not sure what that actually entails, but I'm sure it will be good. We cook dinner for each other every Tuesday, it is a nice way to get together and have a good meal and talk about our stupid lives!
  I need to start eating better breakfasts again. I was on a kick for a while there, I would make an english muffin with peanut butter and apple butter, a hard boiled egg, a banana or a clementine and a cup of black tea. Pretty good right? I know! But these days I can only summon myself to eat some yogurt, a hard boiled egg and a cup of tea. I usually have a snack of a piece of freuit about 2 hours into work, so that's good, but I need to be better. I shop better in the summertime, so I will try to get onto a good shopping schedule and buy only good things. I have found that if I ONLY have a piece of fruit to snack on, well, then that's what I will snack on...like at work. And I drink a lot of water, because you are supposed to drink water when you are hungry and if after drinking a glass of water, you are still hungry, then you really are and you are not just wanting to eat because you are bored. Does that make sense?? It does to me, so whatever.

ok, back to my tea and egg....gotta get going to work.

Firstahontas

That is Altheas new name. I hope I spelled it right. Who cares. So I have about 6 minutes before I must be in the car on my way to my second job, why am I an here?? Nobody knows. I need to run upstairs and grab my clothes for yoga...because who knows, I just might feel like going after 12 hours of working!! HAHAH!!!!

 So, I didn't go to yoga. Instead worked then went to a friends house for a quick beer. I have only had one beer this week since I have been sick, so having one today was great! Felt a little tipsy!HA!
   Cooking dinner now and watching Chuck, such a great show!! For dinner I am having tortilla encrusted Tilapia and Parmesan Spinach pasta. I did not prepare either from scratch. Sadly. But I am too tired to do so.
  Planning on going to bed nice and early for the long day tomorrow.
 I am not sure if anyone but Firstahontas will be reading this, not sure that I want to tell the world yet that I have a blog. Only people who don't know me should read this. For now.

How will it taste?

Hi. This is my first blog. I am sure I will have nothing of interest for anybody to read, but I guess you never know. I have a few friends who have blogs and I thought "I want one!" So I asked one friend, "what would I write about?" and she replied, "you food you make, your cats, your projects" so I guess that is a place to start. I always have dumb stories about all of those things!
But, already, I have run out of time. I must get going to work....I will try to get going on this more later on today.
