manic monday

i didn't have the best weekend, eating wise, but it's a new week. friday night my boyfriend and i ordered pizza. i wanted him to order a medium "philly cheese steak" with whole wheat crust, and a side order of this chicken nuggets shaped like dinosaurs. when the pizza comes it is a large philly cheese steak pizza, an order of the nuggets, AND a medium cheese pizza, because "it was only $3 more." i actually didn't mind because having two kinds of pizza is more fun and plain cheese is lower in points. but i digress, i ate too much pizza.

saturday wasn't *too* bad actually. we went for a nice walk in kensington to pick up some last minute touches for the halloween costumes, and then i made a delicious baked pasta for dinner. mmmmm. just thinking about it makes me drool. the parties were fun - we went to goin steady (a 50s and 60s rock n roll dance party) and then to a house party.

yesterday i drove to the burbs and my mom and i proceeded to bake a thousand cookies. thanks again to mrs. furious for the recipe. i took some pics of our extreme baking and will post them a bit later.

this morning i completed day two of week five of the couch to 5k running podcasts. it is a five minute warm up walk, then run eight minutes, walk five, run eight and walk five for the cool down. my ipod cut out about 10 minutes before the end so it was all an estimation. it is my opinion that ipods are overpriced and stupid. yes, i own one and it does work but the battery life is NOT GOOD. i also have a sony sport arm band mp3 player too (i bought it on ebay) but i couldn't figure out how to load songs on it. it only works with PCs, and all my songs are on my MAC at work. i thought i loaded songs on it, but then i tried it out at the gym and the only song that would play was the one it came with. good times. so i'll figure it out... someday!

here is today's menu:

breakfast:
banana bread (6)
(i'm actually guessing here but i did eat a fair amount of this... )

lunch:
Primo roast chicken and noodle soup, 1 can (4)

and i'm going to decorate cookies tonight so i'll save all my activity points for the cookie monster. is he eating vegetables? what in the world!?
