My mantra for today:


Two birthday parties in one day! Well, technically, one birthday party, one birthday/retirement party.
Jeff's nephew Leo is turning 8 so it's a BBQ/Pool Partyyyy. The plan is to stay away from the pita chips and that cream cheesey dip they always make. Stick to the veggies and the watermelon and leave leave leave before the cake! I already took that kid to get his gift and we took him to Chili's on Wednesday, so I don't feel bad abandoning the party before happy birthday time.
Then I gotta run home and change clothes for Minnie's birthday party. You may remember Minnie from the tell-all post I did on Dina's blog then later deleted thanks to Jack giving me paranoia. Anyway, she's the nosy old lady at work. She's been planning this party since like fucking February. They invited over 500 people! It's also her husband's retirement party. I gotta go even though I really kinda don't wanna because I know it'll be all annoying and filled with people I don't know and I have to dress up and 50 other reasons including avoiding yummy yummy carne asada and awesome multi-tiered cake. UGH.
Technically, I can have SOME cake. I mean, I get 44 points. So I can eat healthy crap all day or like...nothing but cake. NO...alright, just say no. Just say no. Just say no.

You better not eat any fucking cake, you have the diabeetus! They'll cut your foot off!

Way to post a pic of cake and make me hungry.

Shut UP! God, now I wanna eat it just to spite you. And because it's so delicious. But mostly the spite.

Good luck at the parties, hope you have a good time.

making your intentions public should give you second thoughts about breaking them- good work! also, for some reason an eight-year-old named Leo makes me laugh. Leo.

That cake doesn't even look that appetizing to me. I'm all about the uber-fattening cheesecake. Mmmmm.
