I have a little confession to make.
We are all friends here, right?
Good.
So it begins like this. While I was working out one morning, in my half awake attempt to duke it out with Jillian Michaels I could only think about 2 things. One being how badly I wanted to fling my dumbell at her face, and two what was on tap for dinner that evening. I ran through the list of meals I had previously planned for that week, but as usual, nothing struck me. I started to think about cheese. Melty, gooey cheese. Cheese turned into nachos. Nachos reared it's ugly head and turned into fajitas. Dang. Which one?! Let's go nachos. Nachos with fajita style toppings! And so it went, I plugged through my workout, all the while my brain was on nachos.
Are we still friends?
If you are anything like me, this story does not strike you as odd. Totally normal, right?
That's what I said.
PS. I probably gained like 4 pounds just thinking about this. Which really means my workout was all in vain. Yeah, that sounds about right.
