November 1, 2014 (Absinthe Edition)


Decided to start off with a healthy salad and a bit of quince paste that Beth got me (it was really good). Then had some popcorn, blueberry newtons (whole wheat! for what that's worth), and a bunch of chewy Reese's Chips Ahoy.

Lunch was at Longhorn. Started with calamari, salad, bread, and then had a steak with half a potato and some broccoli.

After being home for a bit, had a donut and some candy.

Then decided to have some absinthe mixed with ginger ale (it really is awesome). And then things got weird. At least I'm told.

Here's what happened the next morning - there were facebook postings I don't remember posting. When I came downstairs, I noticed the quince paste was gone. I thought to myself, "Beth must have finished it!" If only...

It turns out, I finished off that paste, but along with a few other things, I don't remember it. Beth was nice enough to inform me: "You kept saying this quince paste is soooooooooo good, you've got to try it. Then you dropped your spoon, and began commenting about how you lost your spoon. While I was playing Destiny, you kept yelling 'Vault of Glass! Vault of Glass!' because I haven't done that level yet. My sister asked how lit were you..."

Apparently pretty lit. That package of Chips Ahoy? Empty when I came downstairs. Later on that morning, I also found a stray newton in my chair. Beth was good enough to not throw me out of the house and also commended me for not puking or wetting the bed.

Weight gain: 5.2 pounds. Not bad considering I don't remember what I ate after six o'clock. Moral of this story - absinthe should be taken in much moderation.
