Ever notice how in the movies the good guys stop the bomb just at 0:01? Everybody stands back, brushes the sweat from their brow, and goes, "Whew!" before going out for drinks.
The clock didn't stop, nobody defused the bomb, and Rob had a mini-moment of self destruction.
Boom!
I couldn't sit alone around the house any more last night so I went out to eat. I blew my diet, and my "Recommended eating" book flew out the window. I went to a Chinese fast food restaurant, and ate lemon chicken fried rice, and an egg roll. Oh, and a fortune cookie.
"Your ideas are clever and you will be rewarded."
Well, maybe so, but last night my reward was to blow off steam and blow off my diet. I don't feel good about it, but I'm not going to beat myself up over it either. I have better reasons to do that. It just was what it was, and now it's over. Time to move on.
Today is new. Today I'll hold true.
