No Church

This is what you get when you don't go. (I didn't go because I had to write my show notes, take a survey and then I got turned around stealing all my eating time. Sleepy and hungry in church is not a good look. Excuses, excuses. I'll go to bible study Tuesday.) You come home to a father who has been here bored all day and thinks he should harass you just to get a rise out of you. GROW UP. He gets like this every once in a while. His male menopause, I guess. Just when I was about to talk about how living with him is not a nightmare and its more like having a roommate you just happen to be related to, he comes out of his face. Soooo over it. With other drama in my life, I really don't need this, too.

Trader Joe's. Went there today on my way home from work and got the goat cheese pizza I think AI was telling me about. Looks delish. Can't wait to try it. I also got some feta cheese, a pomodoro pizza (basil pesto, roma tomatoes and mozzarella), whole wheat pita bread, hummus, salsa, organic corn chips (what exactly is the point of organic chips? but luckily I've had them before and they taste normal.), pesto, sardines (dad got me liking grits and sardines. I know. He took me way back to my roots. I bought them for him. Now i'll be eating them before he gets a chance. hater.), tortellini and honey nut O's. I started eating the lemon sorbet I'd bought on my last trip there. DELISH!! I sooo recommend.

I also talked to my line sister for more than an hour and a half, as usual. We always talk that long on Sunday and usually at least an hour more 2 or 3 days a week. We're even closer than we were in college. My mom and I were talking about how leaving college transforms your relationships with people. I finally got out of the house to hang out with this guy I went to college with who was in town for a conference. I guess I'll detail that tomorrow. Right now I just want to eat some sorbet and go to sleep.

yeah, I know how it feels when your routine is thrown off and you have a sucky day because of it. Never fun.

Well I made sure to eat before church. But I also wasn't paying attention and drank like a gallon of OJ.

So being full and being squirmy cause you have to pee is NOT a good look in church either.

My dad gets like that he got on me because I bought gas with a CARD (gasp...so 1990's) at the pump and didn't get a receipt for it and he swore that people would think I didn't pay for the gas.
He wanted to have a lecture about that. If he has a debit or atm card he wouldn't know what to do with it.

I feel you on that parent/roommate thing. Sometimes you just want them to be quiet!

You're a pretty healthy eater. I could make something nice in your fridge. But sardines... Blerg.

Hooray for Trader Joe's. I seriously don't know what I'd do without them. But we have some goat cheese haters in this house so I don't get that pizza even though I sort of like it.

Love that sorbet...I might have to grab some for dessert tonight.
