Year 2, Day 287: The Morning After

I'm not sure why, but I could not sleep for the life of me. I woke up at 2:30 and I was itchy. Couldn't sleep, kept scratching. Eventually I went downstairs and watched television ("Unwrapped.") It's been months and months since I had to come downstairs to watch TV to get back to sleep. I'm sure it had a lot to do with the outcome of the ZBA meeting—we lost—and probably just decompressing. On top of that, I am still not quite right in the stomach. Every time I passed the coffee maker I was thinking "I wish I could just start my day now instead of going back to sleep." Eventually I got back to sleep but it was a hard, hard night.

Breakfast
Heritage Flakes
Ikea Muesli
Banana
Unsweetened Soy Milk
Coffee

Lunch: MidWest Grill
Beans
Mesclun Greens
Olives
Sausage
Chicken Breast
Roast Beef
Kielbasa
1 Bite of Cheesecake with Strawberries

Dinner
Sashimi
Pickled Ginger
Edamame
2 Glasses Red Wine

Dessert
2 Triangles of Chocolate

Today was a BIG BIG eating day. The biggest in a long while. I ate a lot of meat, the most dessert ever, and wine. In a way it was a kind of a celebration, as the ZBA and that whole deal is behind me (unless I decide to appeal); I finished my Holiday shopping list; there was just a lot to do and most of it is done and I was glad to unwind. I think I was probably VERY cranky at the table, but everyone has their days like that, don't they?
