One week from today I will be on a beach in Costa Rica and I am counting down the seconds to freedom!
This winter has been brutal and it's slowly destroying my soul. But I do have some good news! Despite the fact that I haven’t really centered this blog on weight loss even though that’s what I said I would do, I am down to a weight I haven’t been since 2001! And I cannot wait to eat my way back to fatness after this trip is over! I kid, I kid, I will not do that (maybe), but still, there are moments when I walk by McDonalds and want to go inside and order a 20-piece chicken nugget meal...or two (don’t judge me).
I haven’t eaten at McDonalds in years, but I have to walk by the damn place every single morning and it smells so damn good it hurts.
I also walk by this total scammer who is parked outside of Starbucks every single day asking for money for the homeless all day long. He has a table and an old water jug and a fake sign, and rain or shine, hot or cold he has the same spiel “Feed the homeless, even a penny will help!”
He’s relatively well dressed and is generally in good spirits so I can only assume there are enough tourists in times square to make decent money, but I just don’t get it.
Isn’t he EXHAUSTED from all that standing and all that begging?? And it’s freezing out there! A real job just sounds like so much less work and way more money.
Then again, it is time’s square. He’s probably pulling in 100K a year…tax free.
