Watching Silence of the Lambs right now. Such an awesome movie. So many awkward direct-on shots. Imagine if the Coen Brothers would have directed it. Have you seen the trailer for the Coen Brothers True Grit remake? SO STOKED!!! I didn’t bring up Silence of the Lambs because I ate someone’s liver fava beans and a nice Chianti [insert weird sucking noise here] I just think everyone should see it at least once (maybe on TV.)

Breakfast: I had a group project meeting in the library this morning so I went up early and hit up the Starbucks in the library. (I think I am developing an addiction.) I had my Venti Iced Chai Latte (6 points) but there wasn’t enough ice  in it so it was lukewarm the whole time. We bought these Cascadain Farms chewy granola bars since they were BOGO at Publix so I brought one to thwart the temptation of a pastry. The Chocolate Mocha Almond ones are only 2 points but I quit eating it in like 2 bites. I was feeling it and it was a weird consistency.

Lunch: Megan got a text message from Pita Pit for a but one get one for a buck so us, being the frugal frankies that we are, we went there. I tried the Chicken Crave with: spinach, cucumber, onions, and hot mustard. It was really good, but the service is always mediocre which puts a bad taste in my mouth. Anyways the Pita was 9 points which was good for how filling it was.

Exercise: Got back to the Wednesday routine of playing Matt in racquetball. How did it go you ask? Let’s just say he read my goal list. The first two games I was doing well and then I got dominated. It was a blast and 16 exercise points of awesomeness. Matt: this is not over yet!

Dinner: We bought some Morning Star Veggie Tomato and Basil Pizza burgers to try something new and to have a easy-to-make dinner around. I’m not really sure how to describe how they taste (think pizza rolls in patty form with no meat) but they were great and really hit the spot. Two burgers with buns were only 8 points and I had a 6 point serving of tortilla chips. Also, Megan thinks that these patties would be good as a substitute for chicken parmigiana. We will definitely have to try that soon. (Has anyone ever tried that?)

After dinner, I wasn’t feeling well, so I had a 1 point orange, took a bath and drank a lot of water. During Modern Family, I think my continuous laughter kicked whatever was going on. I think it also helped that I had half of a waffle which (4 points.) Between the running and racquetballing, I really need to get my water intake up and probably avoid soda. Does that sound about right?

So anyways, I’m at 34 points and with the exercise points I’m doing alright. With all this Fall weather, I think it’s time to break out the teapot. I love fall. Oh yeah, this morning, when it was a mere 61 degrees, I saw a guy in a hard shell North Face jacket like he was about to go climb Everest or something. Hooray for overkill. Silly Floridians. See ya tomorrow.
