I'm getting the blahs again...
Primarily with lunches. Every day I go through the same routine in the morning with trying to figure out just what I will do when it comes to lunch. Sure, I can bring leftovers to nuke up and wolf down... or I can waste half of my lunch break going to either Subway, another sandwich place, or the local market to raid the salad bar, and then try to scarf it all down in the 10-15 minutes I have left... Can't have a relaxing lunch break that way, that's for sure.
People order sandwiches or whatever from some of the local shops around here and have them delivered. All well and good, but when the food is sub-mediocre at best, and more than what you'd spend on the same thing (with a little better quality) at home, you kind of get discouraged with that idea.
So where does that leave someone in my position?
Not eat? Not a good idea. I get odd feelings in my gastrics when I don't eat much during the day, like yesterday. No breakfast, couple of cheap TV dinners for lunch, and a few toasted ravioli as a late afternoon/early evening snack doesn't amount to much. I nibbled on a chicken patty sandwich before conking out last night, but I didn't finish it.
Don't get me wrong, I still love food. I still love to cook. I just don't have any spark when it comes to lunches around here.
Maybe what I need is a mental health day, have a nice home lunch sometime. I have 13 sick hours left for the remainder of the year, and my first real vacation time is around Christmas. I'll need a sanity day before then, that's for sure, and the next holiday on the horizon is Turkey Day.
Moan moan moan...
