No. Still tempted but we thought real hard about the old "who's going to go home for the dog" routine and that we really want a year to roam around a bit in the airplane without messing with kennels or finding pet-friendly places to stay, and we've back-burner'd it again for now.
It's not so much a matter of if, but of when... some pound pup will eventually steal our hearts and we'll do it.
I also need to get back in the gym routine bad. Jan-Oct I put 20 lbs back on just spending too much time eating "comfort foods" and not exercising like I should. Some of that related to doggie grief and boredom, more because I got lazy.
Tonight's dinner was kinda a "last hoorah" for that silliness. I'm also bummed that the excellent salad bar place that was right across the street from the house, folded a while back.
That's all they did, soup, salad, and baked potatoes. It was a great way to avoid BAD food when dining alone on Karen's rehearsal and gig nights.
Couldn't really pick a bad option in that place. Sucks that it went under. Was my "habit" place to go to stay out of culinary trouble. Going to have to find another healthy joint. There's another similar place a few miles away and it's somewhat between home and the gym. Not quite as limited on options, but I think it'll work.
Me and veggies have some re-acquainting to do. And frankly, once I had the metabolism up, as long as I didn't pound down cheeseburgers every day, I could have a few.
I think maybe if I could hire Terry Tate, Office Linebacker, for motivation, I'd be fine. Heh.
