Well guys, the hits just keep on comin’
It is just NOT my day. On the way into work I decided I was going to grab myself that big coffee that I was so excited for so that I could sip it throughout my train ride while I did my crossword.
BIG MISTAKE! Want to know where my coffee ended up? Spilled all over the PATH train floor. BEST. DAY. EVER!
I couldn’t bring myself to buy more because I had just spent nearly $3.00 on that cup alone!
I got hungry around 11 (I think because I was missing the filling soymilk that I usually get from my coffee) and look what the bear dragged in!
My other Amazing Grass goodie! I was a little nervous upon opening it because I could definitely smell all those great greens in there -
But I was pleasantly surprised to find that I actually liked it quite a bit! I don’t know if I could pick a favorite between this one and the chocolate flavored one! Don’t let it’s outer appearance fool you guys – this thing is GOOD. Plus I find these bars keep me full for quite a while. Points for Amazing Grass! They make some seriously great products!
At this point it seemed like my day was beginning to look up…but boy was I wrong.
I ventured out for lunch around 1:45 to quell my rumbling tummy. I really wanted another huge salad from Bocca but I felt bad doing that to you guys two days in a row so I decided to mix it up a bit.
I grabbed a vanilla Oikos yogurt, a cookies n’ cream Luna bar, a HUGE thing of fruit and some Pop Chips. I know – completely random. Not really sure what my thinking was.
So lunch started out like that…and ended up like this:
Notice anything missing?? If you guessed the Oikos, you’d be right! I opened it up, all ready to dig in only to find it was MOLDY! I just can’t win today!
To top it all off – this “meal” (if you can even call it that!) was $15.00!!! Jeez louise, if today didn’t teach me to ALWAYS BRING a lunch, I don’t know what could!
I tried to enjoy it as much as possible, but I definitely missed my greens – even despite my mid-morning snack
I’m really hoping things start looking up – I’m sure you guys are sick of my complaining! What a disastrous past few days though. Doesn’t it always seem like when things go wrong, they ALL go wrong at once?!
Hope you’re all having better Fridays than I am. See you for dinner!!

UGH – I really hate days like that! (you basically just described my Friday from last week to a T!)
You’ll be home and relaxing before you know! Hope your day gets better my dear!
Allison – Aren’t days like that just the WORST?! Thanks for the happy thoughts, you just made me smile from ear to ear
Oh dear!! I hope you day turns around and you get a wonderful tasty (cheap) dinner!
Haha! Thanks Tay!
But here’s the thing…You’re getting all the bad stuff out of the way today so by the time you leave work this afternoon you have set yourself up for a perfect weekend! Honestly, I hate days like that too!
Traci – Hahaha. I love that. And that’s very true and is actually exactly what happened!
At least its Friday!!!
Julie – TRUE! I love that positive outlook
Bummer of a day! Hopefully things will start getting better from here! At least you covered all the bases with your lunch: some fiber, some protein and some fat…hopefully it was keep you full.
Thanks Eve! It actually did the trick. I didn’t get hungry for dinner until almost 8pm!
Girl, I feel you on a crappy friday. Ugh–I am having an awful day too. Tomorrow–let’s hope it’s better!
Aw Madison! I’m so sorry to hear that! I hope you have a better weekend. TOMORROW WILL BE OUR DAY!
Ugh, I am sooo sorry. I guess my twitter wishes did not help? Judging by the moldy yogurt, NO.
Have a better weekend, dear!
Thanks Whit! Have fun at your concert tonight! And ps – your twitter wishes TOTALLY helped my morale
Oh dear. Do you drink? Cuz it sounds like a big ole glass of wine is in order.
Chin up sweetie!
Thanks Erin!
hope your day is going better by now, miss! I agree with Erin, above. Grab yourself a cold one stat.
Haha thanks Jen!
I want to try the amazing grass bar so much, hopefully soon! Sorry about all the spilling and molding, hope things are looking up!
Leianna – I would definitely suggest it! I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they’ll want me to do a giveaway! And thanks, things are definitely on the up and up now. Phew!
eww i’m so sorry to hear that your lunch didn’t turn out the way you wanted. Also, don’t feel bad about eating the same lunch a couple days in a row. I eat the same lunch daily! (well, sometimes I mix up the chips)
Kristine – Thanks!! It makes me feel so much better knowing I won’t be letting you guys down if I do that
Manhattan prices never fail to shock and amaze me!
Valerie – I know! It’s CRAZY right?!
girl don’t i know it – in 3 days my cable and computer broke, all when my hubby was gone so i could only cry to my dog. but it’s kinda funny – when my phone started to show signs of breaking too i could only laugh.
Lynn – Oh no!! It’s so terrible when you don’t have anyone there to go through it with! But I know, sometimes it just starts getting so bad that you give up and just can’t do anything but laugh about it!
Sorry for the stinky day. You should really email Oikos. I am sure they would send you coupons for replacement Oikos. Have fun in Ct. this weekend.
Thanks Heather! I definitely will do that
Enjoy your weekend as well and Happy 1st Birthday! We’ll have to get together soon!
