Is This A Bad Sign?

Hey Hey

Hope Monday is treating you well. I started my Monday with a quick breakfast of PB on Toast. I ate it too quickly to capture on camera, I’ll try and incorporate taking breakfast pics into my morning routine from now on. After breakkie, I headed to the gym and busted out a quickly 2.5 miles and ~300 calories on the elliptical. It was a surprisingly exhausting workout – I don’t think I give the elliptical enough credit. I’m also getting over a really bad cold – so that may have been why it seemed harder than usual. After the elliptical, I did about 20 minutes of arms + back with weights. I was pretty pooped by the time I left.

I headed home for lunch, just in time to catch the boy on his lunch break. He only works like a 10 minute walk away, so he comes home some days to keep me company. He made a wrap and I made one of my all-time fav lunches.

Its ridiculously easy – just a few slices of tomato on bread, with S&P on top, then I usually add a handful of baby parmesan or mozzarella on top. I cook in in the oven at about 350 for 10 minutes or so, and add some fresh (if I have it) or in most cases dried basil on top when its finished. DEEELISH! I’m sure its not that healthy because of all the cheese, but omigoodness its tasty.

I spent most of this afternoon applying for jobs *story of my life* – I hate being jobless. I’m actually kind of miffed at the moment because I was supposed to hear back from two positions that I interviewed for last week by today – and haven’t heard a thing. No call, no email – so now I’m just sitting here paranoid –  is this a bad sign? They did say they would be in touch – but c’mon – I hate being left hanging – I’d rather just know one way or the other.  I did manage to take a mid-afternoon break for a green tea and a Luna bar though. :) Those make me smile.

I also managed to catch Oprah earlier, it was the episode about bosses doing their employees job for a day. I was actually really impressed with the concept, and with the CEO’s and executives who were showcased. I think it takes a lot of courage for them to admit the things their company is doing wrong on national TV. I was even more impressed with the employees though – they really make me rethink my current job situation. I could have it ALOT worse. I was so impressed with how people working difficult jobs still managed to have fun. I need adopt that kind of optimistic view of my lie.

Anyways, I’m off to start dinner – we’re gonna try making homemade falafel for the first time tonight – should be good. :)
