Went to a comedy show Sunday night, Love live stand up good times.......... I of course ate nachos/other carby fried goodnees and even had a bit of alcohol! I of course made all my meals for Monday before I left since I would be getting home late and of course my employer doesn't give two shits about George Washington. of course I am sitting in my office (its off the main office) no one else is there I go to leave at 3:30 and the whole yard is locked and everyone else already went home early!
