Smoking good time

So, I'm sure it won't come as a shock to anyone that I didn't get up to go to the gym this morning. After blogging, I looked up my schedule for orientation today, realized I had the afternoon off and decided that I wanted to go to zumba rather than doing my own thing. I decided this because 1) I really like zumba, 2) I really like sleep, and 3) I left my iPad, which I use as my kindle, at home this weekend and 45 minutes of elliptical without reading material is extremely painful.

Anywho, I got up a bit before 8:00 a.m., showered, had breakfast and headed to school. Our orientation was 2 hours, so I was home by 11:00 a.m. Boo yeah. I spent most the afternoon studying. We have lectures on chest x-rays and interpreting EKGs tomorrow, so we were given the afternoon to study. In addition to studying, I ate. A lot. I was really hungry for some reason. So, I snacked a lot. Mostly healthy stuff. But when the little snacks weren't doing much, I pulled out the protein.

Morning snack

After lunch snack

I'm still hungry, let's eat 12g of protein snack

5g of protein from the cheese, 14g of protein from the nuts

I was still hungry by the time I had to go to zumba, so I just looked forward to dinner, during which I almost burned down my apartment. The photos don't really do it justice, but long story short: I will only cook this fish in my oven rather than my toaster oven, which apparently, was not up for the job/was too good at its job.

Idk if you can see the smoke on the right, but my toaster oven smoked the entire 20 minutes it took to cook this 

End result: cooked fish and a whole lot of smoke. 

It was a smoking good time. I'm sure my neighbors felt the same way.

I'm pretty sure if my smoke alarm weren't located in my bedroom and the hallway leading to my bedroom, I would've been in big trouble. Good thing my landlord doesn't care if I burn down my kitchen. Also, an exhaust fan would be nice. Just saying.

Other than that, I don't have much to report. Tomorrow is going to be a weights day. I'm toying with the idea of going in the morning, but I'm thinking tomorrow is going to be a short day as well, so I don't know if I want to lose the sleep. Decisions, decisions. 

Today's positive note/missed positive note: There was a larger woman next to me at zumba today (larger than me) and she didn't know many of the moves, but she left about 20 minutes into the class. I'm not usually one to chat it up in class with people I don't know (I just come to dance), but I think next time I'll say hi so she feels a little more welcome and a little less awkward about it.

The rest of today's pictures:

Breakfast

Lunch - waiting for the toaster oven to preheat so I could bake these

I mostly use my blender bottle for crystal light mixing...

Lunch!

Decided I wasn't feeling studying at the desk today

Studied in the lazy boy instead, by the sun!

EKG book - I'm supposed to read this all ASAP. Boooo.

Salad with dinner

Dinner - the fish was just okay (probs cuz I smoked it) and that is one serving of rice (next time half'll do)

Catch you guys tomorrow. Also, stay tuned for a weigh-in on Friday!
