Harry Potter and the Silly Snacks

Last night at about 8pm, Clark and I decided on a whim that we would to go to the midnight showing of Harry Potter. So, we ate a bowl of broccoli, took a nap, and left for the show just after 11. The reason I am telling you this, dear teammates, is because we each lost two points for eating after nine. We were trying to live the letter of the law by waiting until after midnight. I even brought/sneaked water, apples, and mandarin oranges into the movie theater. But after we picked up some snacks at the grocery store, I absentmindedly put some food to my mouth, chewed, and swallowed. Clark did the same. I noticed the clock read 11:15. And then, my dears, it was too late. Otherwise, we are both at perfect points for the week.

On a happier note, I took my "day off" yesterday, also on a whim because Clark brought home some deluxe cupcakes he got at a work meeting. They looked too good to pass up, and it would have been near tragedy to let them get stale, so we saved them from a terrible fate by eating them. What can I say? We are altruistic by nature. :-)

Starting the "day off" after 6pm made it so I didn't go crazy in my selection of sugary substances. I highly recommend it.

Also, Harry Potter was awesome.

Have a great weekend!
