The flaw in the plan..

OK, so I have been doing really well lately. Going to the gym a lot, eating much better, learning spanish.. it's been great. BUUUT, this weekend was a huge setback in the weight loss department. It was worth it, but still frustrating in hindsight.

So Matt came for a surprise visit this week. Him and Dan had planned it a while ago and didn't tell me, so all of a sudden Matt walks into the apartment and I was like "what the hell?" So that was fun. It was a shitty weak, weatherwise, so the only San Diego things we could show him were food things, haha. We had In N Out, California burritos, burgers at Hodad's in OB, churro's at the border in Mexico, and went out to the Outback.. The other thing that made it difficult was we didn't go to the gym except for a quick trip his first day here. So i've been eating crap food, and not exercising, not a great combination.

Other than the obvious setbacks in that department, things have been going pretty great for me. Matt and I fell back into our old patterns, and we bickered a lot.. but that's just what we do, so that was alright. We went to the orfa a bunch, which is basically my favorite thing to do at this point. On one day we went to the Trompo museum in Mexico with ALL the kids in the orphanage, so that was great. Seeing them get all excited for the science exhibit things, and playing with bubbles, and jumping on the walking piano thing.. it was really awesome.

Also, we hung out with the AV's a bit, which is always fun. The first night we just hung out and talked, which was cool, but last night.. we wanted to do something else, and since matt isn't 21, our ideas were limited. We got Fro-yo, then were gonna go bowling, which apparently is very popular around here, as it was an hour and a half wait.. so we said scratch that and went elsewhere. We wound up playing mini-golf, which was awesome because it made me feel like a little kid. So there were 8 of us (7 playing ::shakes head at Allison::) all in our 20's playing mini-golf at 10pm on a Saturday night.. haha (P.S- I won.) After that we went back to the AV's house and played Kings and Asshole, which was obviously a good time as well. So that brings us to now. It's Sunday, I'm bored, and I don't feel good enough to put in a workout. Overall this was a pretty awesome week, but I have a lot to do to get back on track. As for the other things i've alluded to and talked about in previous blogs that I left out of this one.. we'll cover those at another time.
