After I posted the diary last night, I cleaned my whole darn apartment, now, it looks like a showroom, a showroom of a very poor person but a showroom none the less. I cleaned my microwave oven for the first time in, I think, nine years. It sounds worse than it actually was. I also discovered a roll of tin foil that I've had for nine years. I don't use tin foil much. When you cook for one, there's not many leftovers -- that may be the saddest thing I've ever said.

I have to thank "Sally" for being a wonderful sport. If you'll remember, she lost our Eagles/Steelers bet this past weekend. I was away from my office for a little while and when I returned, there was an envelope on my chair, the envelope read: "Congratulations, Bob! To the victor goes the spoils..." -- Can you say 'classy?' Ha ha, that reminds me of another note "Sally" left for me. I let her borrow The Great Escape and she returned it with this note: 


Funny note

That "Sally," she's good people. I should take that $20 and buy her something cool. (That was just a passing thought, I'm not that nice.) Ha ha! Have I talked about that Great Escape note before? Oh well, it's still funny. Hey, did you see the new Mustang commercials? Steve McQueen is back, sort of...HOLLYWOOD!!!

I got to work yesterday at 7:40 AM! Much too early but I was expecting a busy morning that didn't happen. Better to be here and nothing happens than not be here and everything happens. Can I say "happen" anymore in this paragraph?! Stop beating yourself up, BOB!

My first day of eating right begins now. It was going to be yesterday, I even had a salad with chicken for dinner. But once I got home, all bets were off as I ripped into a bag of "healthy" cheese curls faster than you can say 'no self control.' I'm going to start my day with a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios. I need to eat half of what I'm used to eating.

I'm going to end today's diary with a list of all the songs on my ipod that have numbers in the title. Sounds like fun, right? Well, here's the list anyway:

Sincerely your Internet friend,

Bob
