Whenever there’s no free breakfast at work we have yogurts and bars and poptarts to pick from. I usually go for the Chobani yogurt but that could only mean one thing …

[2018] 214/365: Delicious Comfort Food

… I’m usually starving before lunchtime and I chow down on some almonds that I have stashed at my desk. I was extremely happy that I was invited to go to lunch at Treebeards with Noah and Prisila.

I have found my favorite lunch place near work. I mean I don’t know if it’s my favorite but it sure is one of the best things that I’ve eaten here. It is southern comfort food and I ordered the chicken fried chicken, gravy on the side, with green beans and mashed potatoes. It came with a roll which had butter sandwiched in between and I even ordered a yellow cake with chocolate frosting for my coworker whose birthday is this weekend.

We ate, we had laughter, and soon it was back to work. Having that break was actually pretty nice. It made work go by a little bit faster and soon enough I was on my way home.

Tomorrow is date night with Scruffy and I cannot wait! We will be attacking one of the Houston Restaurant Week restaurants!

Phone Date!

I woke up finding Rizzo next to Panda this morning. I always get really excited to see him cuddling next to my stuffed animals since it’s not something that he does. It’s just so adorable that he doesn’t kick it out of the way.

[2018] 213/365: Last Episode

Has anyone caught up with the newest season of Orange Is The New Black? I’m finally on the last episode but I cannot finish it just yet since I have a very important phone date with Apurva! It’s been over a year since I’ve seen her so being able to have a phone catch up is huge.

I also want to add that my parents are savages. They have been making bitter melon in as many forms as they can knowing well enough I’m not a fan. Beggars can’t be choosers, right?

Okay … Off to calling her now!

Distance Sucks

[2018] 212/365: Depressed Rizzo

He’s been sad lately. Maybe he misses Scruffy or Luna. Who knows. But he hasn’t been eating or drinking water until this afternoon. Maybe I need to stop taking him away from my family.

One of my friends have a boyfriend and I am so happy for her. And I’m so ready for a wedding. I can’t disclose her name since it doesn’t seem like it’s known information yet but man do I miss girl talks with her. And with Houston Restaurant Week around the corner it makes me miss her more. Hopefully I’ll get to see her soon. Distance sucks!

Moving On Up

[2018] 211/365: More Screens, More Work

Just kidding. I’m not budging anywhere. But people at work kept telling me that since I’m getting my third screen it meant I was moving on up in the company. Jokes, obviously.

The new one is a smaller size than my other ones which IT was surprised that I even had so we kept it on the down low and I decided to flip the new one vertically so no one could tell.

Work went by extremely fast. One meeting, IT to install monitor and many back and forth emails. It definitely made work a breeze.

Now it’s time to snuggle out with Rizzo and fall asleep. Early to bed early to rise …

Can It Be The Weekend Again Already?

[2018] 210/365: Cristobal’s To-Go

I think this is currently Scruffy and I’s favourite Mexican food place. They make some of THE best beef. Their guacamole isn’t worth the money though so I’ll be skipping that next time.

It’s been nice being back home though. Rizzo isn’t so on edge, actually eats his food, and there’s not as much barking coming from him. Maybe I need to take him out some more so he gets used to it.

Another work week ahead. I’m already ready for the weekend. Who’s with me? Man, I really miss every other Friday off. Sigh …
