Rain, Rain…Get Outta Here!


I had better come up with some ideas or else this is quickly becoming a record merely of what exactly went into my salad today. I was on the fence about making a salad today. I woke up at 5:45 for no discernable reason and decided to get up and going. I went to the gym. I read the paper (all the movies reviewed this week look terrible, and is it me or has Cameron Diaz finally made the final turn into a cabbage patch doll?), I went home and had breakfast and stood in the kitchen thinking:

Should I just buy lunch today? 

But then I thought:

I went out to dinner last night and that cost me some money (not a lot, but some), and in this age of soaring prices for everything, I should eat out not because of laziness, but because of social opportunity. (Am I making a final turn to Machiavelli? Or just utilitarianism?)

Plus, I have food in the fridge, I ought to eat it. And so, Gabinka, and so, dear reader (of which, I hear, there are now two) I washed out my tupperware, and sliced up a cucumber, and grated some gruyere (I really love that cheese), and added some lettuce and voila: today’s salad.

In addition, some almonds and a yogurt as snack.

Now git to work!
