And that faithful monthly visiting old pal of mine has decided to zap me into a rut of low energy and feeling like poop. A lot less than usual though. So, I guess that's something. At any rate, I haven't much felt like working out because of that. Although, I have been watching my intake, and I've been trying some new recipes and dishes that are ( Read more... )

Yesterday we went out to the aquarium for my son's birthday, and consequently I ended up eating a crappy hotdog and a handful of french fries.
