She&#8217;s been exercising regularly, she&#8217;s been cooking healthy and, thankfully, she&#8217;s been encouraging me to eat well and exercise with her.&nbsp; Yesterday was a pretty good day for me for exercise and quantity of food.&nbsp; Typically I\u2019ll have a snack or two during the day and\/or have one really bad meal (e.g. hamburger, fries, soda and a milkshake) but yesterday I just had Wheaties (The Breakfast of Champions<SUP>TM<\/SUP>), an Italian sandwich (which isn\u2019t especially healthy but I didn\u2019t pile chips and a soda), a small handful of <A href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gorp\">GORP<\/A> and finally, for dinner, <A href=\"http:\/\/www.little.org\/paula\/blog\/\">Paula<\/A> made whole-wheat pasta with vegetables on top (she makes it with a touch of butter, olive oil and some parmesan on top\u2026 healthy and tasty).&nbsp; After dinner <A href=\"http:\/\/www.little.org\/paula\/blog\/\">Paula<\/A> made us go running.&nbsp; To top it off, I wound up staying up late (I blame <A href=\"http:\/\/www.cradworld.com\/CradBlog\/\">Dick<\/A>, <A href=\"http:\/\/www.trinachow.com\/blog\/\">Trina<\/A> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mikefullerton.com\/\">Mike<\/a>) which would typically dictate a late-night-snack before going to bed, but I resisted the temptation and just went to bed with a glass of water.<\/P><br \/>\n<P>All this clean living must have a payoff, right?<\/P><br \/>\n<P>So here\u2019s the thing, I was out to breakfast eating my fruit cup when I realized the chef had screwed up and there was no fruit in my fruit cups (because if one fruit cup is good, two fruit cups are better).&nbsp; All I had was just the pastry containers.&nbsp; I wasn\u2019t sure if I was right in expecting fruit so I asked <A href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000165\/\">Ron Howard<\/A>, who was having breakfast with me, if he had fruit in his pastry cup.&nbsp; He confirmed it, I was missing my fruit.&nbsp; Ron was extraordinarily polite about it considering I&nbsp;really was making a fool of myself by teasing him mercilessly in front of <A href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kiki_Dee\">Kiki Dee<\/A>.&nbsp; I was feeling pretty silly for making fun of <A href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000165\/\">Ron Howard<\/A> but things only got worse when the Roman centurions were unable to control the crowd after throwing gold and treasure into the audience.&nbsp; As the crowd spilled over into the center of the stadium the other gladiators and I were forced to grab the ropes of the <A href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Liger\">Ligers<\/A> to prevent them from attacking the crowd.&nbsp; I figured if I could pull hard enough on the rope while planting my feet on the animal&#8217;s neck I\u2019d be able to keep it from biting me but it was still able to squirm around and get a hold of my leg.&nbsp; I compensated by sticking my foot in front of its face length-wise because I have size twelve and-a-half feet and it wouldn\u2019t be able to open its mouth that wide.&nbsp; Turns out it was very cute when it gnawed on my shoe.<\/P><br \/>\n<P>I have the weirdest feakin\u2019 dreams.&nbsp; I think I\u2019ll go make myself some breakfast\u2026 and I\u2019m staying away from fruit cups for the foreseeable future.<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paula has been doing a fantastic job of getting healthy.&nbsp;
