So after my red meat escapade last week, you would have thought I would have learned the errors of my ways and cleaned up my act.
Nope.
This week, I did come down with some sort of bug. I unfortunately could not take time off work as I had to teach. I managed to keep my voice for the classes, but every night I was pretty much flat on my back. Wednesday night I actually took a nap after work, something that is totally out of character for me. I think it was my body just screaming for some rest.
Sufficed to say, I did not do any walks this week. I needed the rest.
Thursday I was much better. After work I was preparing to go for a walk, but I got a suprise phone call from a friend asking if I wanted to go to Fright Night. I couldn’t pass up that opportunity. I’ve been wanting to go for years, but for one reason or another, I was not able to go. This year I was planning to go, but again things got in the way and I just could not get myself organized. Luckily fate intervened.
So I spent most of Thursday night screaming my head off. Great for the vocal chords by the way, especially after spending a few days teaching. I woke up with a very tender throat this morning, but I have no regrets. It was tototally and absolutely worth it.
To make matters worse, I ate a Burger King fish sandwich and fries right after spending the evening at Fright Night. And no, I did not wait 2 hours before going to bed, so my body didn’t get a good enough of a chance to digest and burn it off before I went to sleep.
But as I said, it was totally and absoultely worth it. It was a fantastic night and I would totally do it again.
