So I was back at work today and of course, in the foulest of moods. I always am at this time of year. It's been a decidedly warm winter and still, spring can't come soon enough. Even more frustrating is the fact that you can feel it in the air. It's slightly more moist than usual, and you can smell things like soil and dead leaves.
I am also going through my twice yearly "nervous breakdown". I get this when Fall becomes Winter and when Winter turns to Spring. I'm beside myself, unable to sleep, constantly fatigued and generally feeling coo-coo for cocoa puffs. But if the earth is turning on its axis, it seems reasonable that it may be affecting me.
To wit, I had for lunch today a bag of chocolate covered almonds, accompanied by a perusal of this week's latest issue of The Star. Not a good sign. I typically don't buy tabloids unless my brain is in serious need of bubblegum. Today was such a day. I stood in Dominion [which I've always found to be a ridiculous name for a food store chain. It's kind of like "Honey, I'm going to Overlord for bread. Need anything?"] and looked at the chicken caesar I had picked up and realized that if I had one more piece of romaine lettuce I was going seriously lose it. Frankly, I just felt like almonds and chocolate. A bit of protein, a bit of sass if you will. They served me well this afternoon, keeping me going.
I know this is not the best food choice, but it's not as if I'm in the habit of having chocolate for lunch every day. I actually didn't feel hungry at all but knew I needed to eat. Chocolate almonds were about all I felt like. So, not a great moment in Pudge Nudge lore, but I'm just going to move on from it.
In the meantime I have compiled my Pudge Nudge Mix for working out. Let me know what you think.

That is one seriously diverse and funky workout list. You had me at Human League. Love it. What no Prince? You've Got The Look is a great workout choon. And I love that Vanessa Williams, that's a cover right? Still it's good.
I made a Fatburner Selection recently - pure hi-energy hip-hop and r 'n' b, definitely makes fighting the flab less painful.
ok so this is ya playlist huh..um honey where is Mary J up in all that there?lol
