This morning I felt pretty tired and hungry when I woke up, so I decided to drive to work instead of biking it. When I got into the office I had some orange juice and a bagel, but even after that I was still pretty hungry.
Throughout the morning, I had a little bit of a struggle focusing and trying to keep awake. But then around noon I got a call from my roommate Pootee telling me there was still some leftover catered breakfast from a meeting in the broadcast meeting next door.
Being able to concentrate on work became much easier after that. The protein from the eggs is something I think my body also really needed. After that, finding food around the office became much easier as well. There were a lot of meetings happening around the office as well as clients in the building. And clients + meetings = lots of food. Jackpot!
At first I had some mixed-nuts and a mountain dew I snagged from a table near our basketball court.
Later on I was able to scavenge some leftover pasta and a salad from vbe. I was still pretty full from lunch, so I thought it'd be best to save it for later.
After that my friends Go and Rachelle clued me into some sandwiches that had been left on our surf bar (another hot spot for food usually.) but again, I decided to save it for later on.
I stuck around the office until the meetings were finished and the last of the clients had left the building.
Tonight's dinner was comprised from a collection of things around the office. From VBE, I snagged some spinach dip and some mediterranean food. From a banquet table near a large meeting room we call "The Tree House" I was able to have a beer. And then as I was walking by the surfbar again, my friend blake had some fries that were about to be discarded. And she's pretty healthy too, so I knew she wasn't just saying trying to make sure I had something to eat.
There were a lot of desserts and other sweets around the office as well, but I've really been trying to avoid those. Not that french are any better for you, in fact they're probably worse. But I guess I was just really craving some french fries. There was even an unfinished hamburger and some sweet potato fries in the trash can I found that looked pretty tempting, but don't worry; I haven't eaten anything out of the trashcan. . . Yet.
From the meetings, I snagged a few granola bars as well as some beer that I brought home for the weekend, and maybe even St. Patrick's Day.
