Self Pity & Self Poisoning

My wife's girlfriends invited her out to party tonight and since I obviously must stay home, I get a tad unhappy about the whole thing. It gets lonely sometimes being locked up alone in the house, but that's not her fault nor her problem. So when her single friends want to take her out (which is usually monthly) I like to think that I am quite supportive.

Surely, related to this: I couldn't take the zero carb diet anymore today. It has been a week since I had anything other than meat and cheese. Mostly meat. As a former vegetarian I'm sick and tired of meat (except Montreal Smoked Meat of course).

And as you have probably guessed, my kryptonite was strong enough to overtake me. Bagels and cream cheese, the surest path to bleeding but oh so tempting: I caved in and had one and a half of them. I'm giving myself some serious doses of anti-inflammatory steroids now to mitigate the upcoming troubles. At least I had 10 minutes of pure bliss as I savoured those bagels.

  1. Those 10 minutes of bliss from eating the bagels cost me a night of sleep! Not to mention pain for the bulk of the next day. But mmmm those 10 minutes were great!
