is there such a thing as a "work 15".. you know.. like freshman 15? i think there has to be. i do nothing but mostly sit on my butt all day - typing at my computer.. with the occasional walk across the street... but there is food everywhere... especially on fridays and especially as the weeks wind down.

today.. i thought i'd be good and bring my lunch because i've been out to lunch a few times this week and spending money on food is something i could probably do less of. especially since last night i had a huge craving for sushi so i ordered 3 rolls from california roll factory because i'm indecisive like that. i brought my leftovers for breakfast - ate few pieces of sushi and had some cereal even though it was free donut friday. i combined the sushi with my leftovers from a birthday lunch on wednesday and thought i had a pretty decent meal. i got invited out to gyu-kaku for lunch, but didn't go because i was feeling anti-social and then i got a notification about free food! whoo!! i had a turkey burger with all the fixings, pasta salad and regular salad. i skipped out on the baked beans and the pound cake/berry mix/create your own shortbread.. but helped myself to a cookie and added a little ice cream for sandwichness.

less than 2 hours later there was a goodbye party for someone who was leaving. so there was meat, cheese and veggie platters, chips and salsa/cheese/guacamole, fruit tart and chocolate cakes and champagne.

20 minutes after that i am told there is ice cream and m&m's in a different area of our work.

in 43 minutes there is another goodbye party for another girl's last day. no food i don't think.. just a few bottles alcohol (for those who haven't already started drinking at lunch. i hear at another goodbye lunch i missed out on 48 oz. margaritas.)

i think they might also be serving dinner for some of the shows in an hour and a half. and i still have those leftovers that i was supposed to eat for lunch. at this rate i could probably stretch it out to next week. no wonder i never go grocery shopping.
