Everything I write here today is apparently going to start out as a text to Tracy.
Last night I had a fruit and vegetable panic attack.
(Tracy's thinking: She didn't send me that...)
I got home after my 10 hour drive and ate a handful of Goldfish and took a nap. Then I woke up and felt an overwhelming need for a cutie. Of course, I ate at least one a day at Dad's so I must be going through withdrawal. I NEEDED fruit and I had nothing. Not even canned fruit, because I brought those to work for such emergencies. I had nothing but frozen vegetables and I was not about to eat four cups of green beans. Maybe some bell peppers or cucumber slices, but not four cups of hot green beans. I almost drove back to the store. Instead I tried to wrestle down the feeling and unpack. I decided I would eat my canned fruit and go get a salad at lunch.
(Now Tracy is saying: Ahh.)
Here, I'll quote myself:
Holy shit, baja salad from wendy's! Yes, i think i will have some guacamole and little dorito-like strips. Even so, i only got half. Who could eat a whole?
I apologize for my lack of capitalization, I was typing one-handed so I could continue wolfing down my salad.
(I feel like I'm making an Amy Facebook post right now.)
All I know is, yum. And I would happily order that again. In fact, it may be difficult to wait. Guacamole and tiny tortilla chips may not be ideal, but I used less than half of the chips. I ate all the guacamole. It's better than a burger. And I got my veggie craving sated- at least for now. Tomorrow I will be able to stock up again on all my bell peppers, cucumbers, and grape tomatoes. And tonight I was going to have a big salad with my moderate indulgence of two slices of pizza (donating the rest to Jody), but today is the last day of Subway's $2 subs, so I may do that instead. What a deal! Is it 2013 yet? I'm starting to have fun.
