It was a bad day in terms of pocket and health. Let me explain that I have hardly any food in the house because I am planning to leave in the next few days and can not see the logic in going shopping only to have things slowly spoil as I am away. So first off I slept so deep, one of those coma like sleeps with a fairly convoluted dream to suck me in. When I finally decided to check the time, I was expecting it to be 10am. It was almost 11am.
Usually I can't eat first thing but after a few minutes of internet browsing I was feeling the hollowness in my tummy. Then Sandra came in wanting me to choose between two meat based soups that I could not give a shit about especially since the decision would not be impacting my meal - they were just her options. Somehow we got to talking about pie and then it was decided we would get some pie from a homestyle joint called Jim's. I have peach cobbler with cinnamon ice cream and a slice of pecan pie. She had strawberry pie and apple pie. We felt plenty bad afterwards.
Then after laying in bed playing our own Sims games for several hours, we went for the hour free swim at Barton Springs Pool starting at 9. It was pretty nice, not too cold yet. I was able to lay back and float and see the sky above me. If the lights had been turned off I could have seen a lot more stars and a lot less bugs flying between my face and the sky. I tried to breath through my nose in fear of sucking in some bugs, but the cool water tends to lead to some breathlessness. You get out of breath a lot more easily at least.
As we left I realized I was hungry once again, and though Sandra wanted to be the responsible one and not eat badly or spend money, she gave in and we went to 24 Diner next to Waterloo Records. It was a real unconventional place, kind of small but open feeling with the glass windows and table layout. We halfed a Peanut Butter Chocolate shake since their milkshakes are award winning according to Sandra's research. Very good, perfect thickness. I blacked out and before I knew it, it was gone. Then I had a veggie burger with fries that were liberally peppered. Just as I liked them. The veggie burger was soft unlike all the others I have had before, the arugula and feta cheese really strong, and I got full with still a few bites left to eat. So I asked for a box. Then we stopped by Waterloo Records, Sandra got a few things. Then I was driving us down the street. Then I realized I didn't have my to-go box. And I still don't know where my abandoned burger is.
