I thought I should get to sleep early last night because if I didn’t make it into work they might fire my ass for abandoning my post or something but as the evening wore on my stomach made those grumbling noises that mean if I tried to go to sleep I’d be getting up at some point and running for the bathroom. I didn’t actually make it to sleep until almost midnight and even then I tossed and turned and had ridiculous nightmares. The nightmare would wake me up, go to the bathroom, and realize I was incredibly uncomfortable and needed a drink of water. This repeated a bunch of times. Heck, I weighed 159 lbs this morning.

So I was continually thirsty today, and through no scientific proof I decided it was probably just a lack of fat in my stomach, giving me an excuse to try Slabtown Barbecue. They’re expensive, the portions are small, but it was all very tasty. Heck, most of the time I eat way too much at a barbecue joint so it’s probably just as well that I didn’t get huge slabs of meat. I’m feeling better already.

See what happens when I take the day off from the gym? I really take the day off from the gym.
