Yesterday was quite possibly the least healthy day I have had since I was 22 yr old and thought that an avocado taco and a pitcher of Long Islands was a nutritional meal. My day started with oatmeal and an apple for a breakfast (not bad), a baked potato with a Laughing Cow wedge and Colby cheese for lunch (yes, two kinds of cheese and no veggies), Lucky Charms for dinner (oops) and M&Ms for dessert (clearly waving the white flag at this point).

The clovers are green so they are basically like broccoli.

I could blame my poor food choices on being super busy at work for 16 hours. But honestly, I think that was a just a good excuse to eat this magical deliciousness for dinner. Living the dream of a 7 year old picky eater.

This morning I was slow moving thanks too little sleep and just not wanting to go into work. But this pretty view helped the drive:

And then when I got to work my new fav co-worker, Ladybug, was waiting on my desk.

Have you seen my stapler?

Having ladybugs flying around all the time is definitely the best thing about the new office. At noon I said goodbye to Ladybug and headed out for a 4 mile run. After a week of bad runs, this run was fantastic. It wasn’t super speedy but I made it and it felt GOOD.

I’m sure my day of potatoes and sugary cereal wasn’t the best possible way to fuel for this run, but I’m still working on it.

Also, it was gorgeous out. This summer when I am running in 100+ degrees and 90% humidity and wondering why I live in Florida, someone please remind me of my January run in 68 degrees

Please ignore the finger in the top left.

Living in the state capital of a swing state, things can get pretty politically heated. Things have certainly calmed down since the election but there are still all kinds of protests/demonstrations/etc quite frequently on the steps of the Old Capitol building. On the way to and from work I pass the Ol Cap (we’re BFF so I can abbrev like that) so I have seen many, many odd people out there for a variety of causes. However, today I drove past what is possibly the oddest demonstration I have ever seen.

Bad pic (per usual) but there are about 20 people there

Oh, you can’t read the sign? It says ‘Hail Satan! Hail Rick Scott’. I’m all about 1st amendment goodness but really, Hail Satan? Obvi, I had to google this immediately when I came home.  In case you are curious about the Tallahassee crazies and their reaction to Senate Bill 98, check this out. And also, don’t move to Florida. We’re full of whackos.

How was your run today?

Are you in a political hot spot?

I’m pretty sure everyone’s eyes on on FL every election since we still don’t know how to vote.
