Day 1 - Okay, here we go: first post

FOOD - Woke up to find that dear Rob hadn't gone to school to teach today afterall, since there was excessive ice around the area. When I stumbled into the kitchen, he was enjoying a hot plate of corned beef hash with two fried eggs on top with rye toast on the side. Mmmmmmm.... Of course he offered to make me a plate, and naturally I accepted without the slightest hesitation. I'm now on my second cup of coffee. As it happens, I am off work today as well, so it's altogether possible this reckless start to my day could escalate through the evening. Or maybe I'll be a good girl. Thing is, I'm not sure. It is minute by minute willpower. I seem to have a detatched interest in whether my good I-can-do-this-rah-rah side will win out over my oh-just-give-in-to-the-inevitable-you-are-going-to-fail-this-thing-at-some-point-anyway-why-deny-yourself-the-pleasure side will win the battle. It's not a struggle I have, it's a struggle I observe from the sidelines: will the good girl win? or the bad girl? Perhaps that's the problem -- I haven't really SIDED with the good girl or the bad girl. (By the way, it's really hard to type with hyphens between all those words).

MOOD - Other than the fact that I've eaten a full day's worth of calories and fat, and all the accompanying guilt that entails, I have to say I'm wearing comfy clothes and haven't looked at myself in the mirror yet. Feeling pretty peppy. And, I'm feeling pretty happy that I decided to create this thing in blog form!
