Breakfast, 10:00 a.m.

The usual.

Lunch, 12:30 p.m.

I met my friends Kerry and Leslie at Cafe Amsterdam
for lunch with Marybeth, who was our adviser during
our first year in the MFA program while our "real" adviser
was on sabbatical. I had grilled ham and cheese, and...
greenery (no dressing -- yuck). I only ate about half of the
salad, but I consider it a victory.

Snack, 4:00 p.m.

Of course, after eating the salad I had to eat a candy bar.
In a way, this was a victory too. What I really wanted was
some Dairy Queen, so I compromised with myself and had
a Snickers instead.

Snack, 6:30 p.m.

Fresh peach, from Tree Things. We've got half a case,
so you will be seeing many more of these. Jon's mom
ordered them for us, because we're too cheap.

Dinner, 8:00 p.m.

Whole wheat spaghetti, and cheese ravioli. Remember,
these are baby plates because the dinner plates are on
their way to Wisconsin.

Snack, 1: 15 a.m.

I split this with Jon -- he had the caramel half, I had
the chocolate half. Also, it was about 1/3 empty when
we started in on it.
