Wow, when did the new team show up. It's more like a legion. Are you trying to build an army or something Patrick? Well, good luck all of you. I respect anyone that does this project, it's hard but worth it. Team mango is small but deadly, and team badass has given us a lot of support so I'm sure they'll do the same for you. Alright, on to my post. . .
There's a cuban restaurant across the street from me (actually there's at least one on every block in this neighborhood), and they were partying last night like they do every wednesday. As the awesome music was playing I started picturing myself dancing around eating cuban nachos. Then I started thinking about what my first meal would be after this is done. Jibarito (steak sandwich with fried plantains as the bread) is definitely top of the list. Not from across the street but this little joint a couple of blocks away where this glowing nice old lady brings out her special garlic sauce that makes the sandwich heaven. Then I was like maybe I should just go straight for hamburger and get it over with. Something really stupid and crazy with bacon and a fried egg. And then. . . then I caught myself and what I was thinking about. I can't be thinking about that stuff when I'm barely half way through. I just saw Nat and Ram's post with all their food and it looked awesome, so I'm going to do something special this weekend. I don't know what, but something PCP compliant and different from the mash-ups I've been eating. I've finally got a weekend without anything going on and I'm going on a mission to liven this place up. Get my fridge to look more like natram's. Ramnat? I guess both of those don't work. O'well.
Kim wrote a good post about being tired for work-outs and the fact that we've been working out everyday for forty-seven days. I'm right there with her on that. But now that I think about it I'm proud of all of us. That's not easy for anyone to do. Soon we'll be where team badass is and be champions. I want my crown.
A lot of days between here and there man! Put your shoulder to the wheel and trudge on!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...the mind playing tricks on you! It is true that you've been working super hard - for a crazy number of days in a row. When I hit this point, I started to lose it - mentally/emotionally - a little. The middle part's the hardest, so just keep on keeping on, one day at a time.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can turn that food speculation into a solid plan for our second indulgence--it can't be more than a week or so away. I'm thinking of either a steak sand with au jus or garlicky white-wine-y mussels--either with a green salad and a few of Luke's frites.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, back to the whole keeping on keeping on thing. We got this shit. I can't wait to see your weekend food photos! In less time than we've spent so far, we'll have our crowns.
P.S. Your arms/shoulders are looking awesome.
i can take no credit for all the special amazing food. that's completely nat's gig, but i can definitely vouch that it makes a hell over a difference.
