I'm finding it a little difficult to type at my usual speed currently because my fingers are genuinely that chilly. I have just gotten back from my amdram gig and what little heating they do have doesn't tend to fill the epic room that we rehearse in. So I've spent a less than active couple of hours there and then home to a house which is thoroughly chilled. Absolutely smashing.
Anyway, today has been a good one I reckon for calories. I started off with a couple of crumpets. The sort of thing I forget how much I really like until I haven't had them for a while, and it has been ages. I don't have them dripping in butter like my mum does (she has everything dripping in butter..) but I do like a nice amount on there. I tend not to even look into butter calories to be honest. Probably a downfall but I don't eat it that often. I had a yoghurt drink with that and then dinner today was provided by Morrisons cafe.
I had some stuff which needed buying..namely hamster based supplies and a ton of Malteser bunnies. I know, I KNOW but they're bloody delicious little things and they're only out once a year! Anyway, mum and I decided to swing by the cafe like we used to often do. It's good now because they provide the calorie content of all their food now so it's a lot more useful for me these days. We used to go quite often back in the day. Mum picks me up from work around 1pm and if she needed anything or we were peckish in general we would head there. We don't do it so often these days, one because there's not an awful lot of spare money kicking about (although we can quite easily feed us both well for a tenner with drinks) and mum had a gastric bypass almost a year ago and it's screwed her over. I'll go into greater detail another day. It's a topic that deserves its own post.
So we were there and I decided I'd have my 'big meal' for dinner because I knew that I was going to theatre tonight and wouldn't be back till late, and also I knew mum was grilling up sausages for tea. So I had me some fish and chips. Not the best choice however it's a chilly sort of a day and I wanted something warming. Plus it is 700 calories and change which is what I allocate for my evening meal.
Anyway, I got home and it took some real self persuasion to get me on the bike. It's freezing in here and also I'm knackered. This theatre thing I love but I forgot how much it takes out of you (and I'm not even acting!). But eventually I did get on it and did my rowing and then I had about two hours before I was due to go so I had a warm in bed.
I've just got, back like I say, from theatre to a tea of sausages, tinned tomatoes and toast...and a Malteaser bunny. I reckon I'm covered calorie wise for the bunny with the exercise so I don't even care. I also had an Irn Bru (sugar and therefore calorie free) because I was chatting to a Scottish pal of mine and he loves the stuff and I've been craving it ever since. Genuinely don't remember the last time I had it.
Right anyway, it is time for my bed seeing as how I'm up at seven tomorrow for work. Joy. At the very least there won't be any drama hopefully because we don't have the 'help' of the weekday staff to look forward to.
From a freezing me, good boo.
