I got back from Maryland today about an hour before work!! It was a really fun weekend. I hate not living in the same state as my best friend from college so it is always great to spend time with her. I also showed her my blog for the first time and she was really impressed. She sat there and read my posts for about an hour! It meant a lot to see someone I am so close with who is unfamiliar with the blog world to be so interested! It also made it a lot easier for me to take pictures all weekend and not feel funny! I will recap back to the last time I posted..Saturday!
My friend (Katie) got off work at 10:30 so we went to Friday’s for dinner and drinks with the boys. I ordered the following:

Just kidding! I got the Appletini. There is also a Cranberry Vodka, Long Island, and some other fun rum drink in the line! I could have drank all 4 though knowing me!
We started off with Mozzarella Sticks!!

So delicious!! I had 3 of them. Nothing better than fried melted cheese!
For my main course I got the Cobb Salad.

Very good as always!
My friend got the Jack Daniel’s Chicken.

My other friend got the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad.
He had to send it back twice because the chicken was not cooked. It was pretty rubbery too. After looking at his chicken, I realized my chicken was not fully cooked either. We found out there is a new owner and they changed the whole menu. I will not be eating there again anytime soon!
Everyone resorted to Katie’s nachos as a backup!!
No chicken to worry about and delicious as ever!! We left after one drink since we were all a little turned off by the rubbery chicken! We went home and drank instead and went to bed around 5 in the morning.
Sunday around 10 am, I woke up to the sound of a loud snap! A MOUSE BEING SNAPPED TO DEATH!!! AAAH! They caught 2 the day before I got there and thought that was it. Then on Saturday I saw one in the kitchen!! I had a panic attack and could not believe I slept on the floor the first night!! Saturday I slept on the couch at least but it was still traumatizing! Mice like to follow me wherever I go!
Somehow I fell back asleep till 2 in the afternoon. We went to the Towson Diner a few hours later once everyone was awake.
I ordered an eggbeater omelet with mushrooms, tomatoes, and feta cheese!
Amazing!! Especially the hash browns!! I had some toast on the side and a piece of my friend’s blueberry pancake!
After the Diner we took a little drive to the Inner Harbor. We had a drink at a bar outside.
Love the smoke in that pic!
I got an Appletini!
Originally I planned to take the Greyhound back to New York at 5:30 on Sunday. I decided to push it back to 8:30 since we did not even get to the Diner till 5. At 8:30 we were still downtown so I decided to push it back even more! The next bus was not till 4:30 am!! I did not want to call out of work so I decided to just take that one.
I picked up a sub from Royal Farms for the bus ride.
It had turkey, American cheese, mustard, tomatoes, lettuce, sweet peppers, and pickles.
Baked Lays for the side!
I slept the entire bus ride but when we pulled into New York at 8:00 am, I was SO tired. I felt awful but put all that effort into getting to work on time so I was not calling out! I put on my work clothes at Port Authority Station. Some woman was next to me making all these weird noises. Another woman told me to not get so close to her because she has fleas!!! I have no been so paranoid all day every time I have an itch! So gross!!!!
I got to work at 9 on the dot and made a cup of coffee to wake me up.
Along with some Blueberry Almond Oats.
I did not go to the gym at lunch for a few reasons. The other receptionist asked me if I would come back from lunch a few minutes early since she was getting her hair done. That would have left with me with only 20 minutes of cardio to fit in. I also had to stop and buy lunch since I obviously could not pack it today! I picked up a sandwich at the Health Food store and went in Balducci’s to eat.
I walked in and there was an AMAZING sample table!!
HUMMUS HUMMUS AND MORE HUMMUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried the Roasted Red Pepper and the Luscious Lemon.
I obviously already love the Roasted Red Pepper since I eat it every day of my life! I was not a huge fan of the Lemon just because I do not like lemon flavored foods.
I got an Avocado Hummus Sandwich at the store!
Ingredients:
Organic Multi Grain Bread, Avocado, Hummus Dip, Carrots, Tomato, Romaine Lettuce.
Nutrition Facts:
Calories: 360, Fat: 11g, Protein: 18g, Sodium: 570mg, Carbs: 49g, Fiber: 13g
It was loaded with hummus!! So good and only $3.19! That is probably the cheapest lunch I can find in New York!
I had some Baked Lays on the side. I could eat that sandwich every day!
I am also chomping on an apple as I blog! I am going to try to go to Kickboxing tonight if I do not pass out at my desk! I am in need of a good workout!
