To Err is Human…
If you’ve been following my blog, you know that it’s been about 3 weeks now since I started eating vegetarian (on weekdays) until 6 PM.
Well, today I faltered. I woke up to the glorious scent of bacon! Tim had made some and when he saw that I was awake he asked if I was gonna eat. We both knew it was a rhetorical question.
Vuthy + Bacon = Inseparable!
I had totally forgotten about my “no-meat-til-6″ routine and was eagerly anticipating biting into a crisp strip. But then as I washed my face and brushed my hair, a thought jolted me fully awake: WAITAMINUTE! I CAN’T HAVE BACON! IT’S MEAT!
But that thought lasted less than a second when I realized I was talking about bacon here. I cannot not have bacon, so I had two super delicious strips and split the third one between the dogs.
It’s lunchtime here. For the past 3 weeks I have also been going out for a brisk, 30-minute lunchtime walk, but not today. It is raining steadily out. I have an umbrella and probably would still have ventured out, but the walk I take is mainly uphill along winding roads with no sidewalks and a lot of fallen leaves, dirt and debris. It’s just not safe to do that walk, especially with all the blind turns up there in these wet and slick conditions.
Now, I don’t feel badly at all about eating the bacon. Bacon cannot be resisted… what am I? God?
But I do feel sucky about not being able to do my walk. I was on a roll there! I guess I will make up for it at the gym tonight. Even though the weather is nasty, and it’s Friday, I know I will still go to the gym. I’m at the point where I really look forward to it every day. Woo!
Update: It’s 15 minutes before the end of the work day, quite dark, rainy and windy outside, and I am not wanting to go to the gym! Yes, I lied to you earlier!
