there was no escaping it

I did not manage to have today off of work, because when I went in to pick up my paycheck, my supervisor asked "What are your plans for today?" From this particular person, I knew he wouldn't be asking unless he wanted me to work. I cased some of the backed up mail for a coworker who has been out with a super sicky kid and who is coming back to work tomorrow, delivered a bunch of parcels that another RCA forgot to take out with him, and then cased a few feet of flats for the route I am doing tomorrow.

But before I did all of this, I took myself out to Soup'r Burger for some soup. I found out that they were having a Brothy Winter Vegetable Soup that included beets. I love beets, so I knew I wanted to get some of that deliciousness. I also had a salad because it sounded good. (I have no clue how many carbs there were, but all of them were from vegetables or the apple in my salad, so I am confident that I was within my limits.)

After work I faced some super gnarly traffic while trying to escape the island. I got some gas ($2.84 a gallon) and then hit up Taco Bell for 3 crunchy tacos and a diet Mt Dew Baja Blast. 36 carbs. I am super excited that the Baja Blast comes in diet. It is my favorite soda, and such a pretty blue color.

I am contemplating starting a diabetes diet related blog. But I don't know if I have the time or resources to do an additional blog.

Right now, this blog is basically a decompressing activity to help me deal with stress and whatnot, but I also want to try cooking new diabetes friendly foods and posting the results.

I have a headache, but am not supposed to take tylenol anymore so if I don't have anything else to take I might have to sleep through it.
