To Take A Cue From Ms. Chunky Chick....My Ex Is An Asshat.

No dinner after all. I dont know why I continually let that kid into my life. I always end up hurt. Always. Why are first loves SO hard to let go of? Especially when they were terrible to you? I should have known. Actually, I did know. I knew that this was going to happen. But, I tried to stay positive. Maybe he really does want to make an effort to be better friends.

Wrong. And I knew it. I need to stop ignoring my gut.

Oh well. He's just a drop in the bucket.

Went out and walked 4 miles in an hour! Thats really good for me. Im used to doing 5 in just under 2 hours. So I was hauling ass! This was the first walk I went on by myself. Just me and the music. So apparently having someone with me is slowing me down? I walked in a new place too. I went along the San Andreas Trail near my house. Gorgeous! Im not used to walking an incline(my usual 5 mile loop consists of suburban neighborhoods)so after the first hill, my legs were burning. Bad. I mean, I thought I was gonna have to turn around and limp back to the car. But I pressed on.

When I looked this trail up online, it said that there were clear .5 mile markers on the trail and a rest point at the 3 mile mark. So I decided that that was were I would stop. Turns out, the trail I was on and the trail I looked up on line run parallel to each other, but are not the same trail. I kept thinking to myself "Where are these damn markers? I know for sure Ive walked at least .5 miles!" So when I got home, I looked up the one I was actually on, and found out it was about 4 miles, round trip. Yay!

Came home and made myself a steak salad. Oh my god, it was so good. I went out and got artichoke hearts, so those made it onto the salad. I also got to use the SlapChop thats been sitting in a box in my cabinet for the last 4 months. Its probably gonna go back. It does what it says-chops things up. But the pieces are so awkwardly chopped, especially for a salad. Although, it did a great job with the onions, it butchered my tomato. In a bad way. And you have to cut veggies up so the fit in the confines of the bottom anyway. Why not just go whole hog and chop em yourself.

So, even after writing, while I usually find theroputic, Im still upset. So its either eat or exercise. Fitness tv here I come.

Until tomorrow!
