oh, the extreme yumminess

so even as the softball was sometimes frustrating but ultimately wonderful and even as the latest epic entry continues, i head home somewhat stupefied by physical and mental fatigue having not eaten much today (a dried edamame-cranberry-almond mix and few gatorades and a banana, which reminds me that i must remember to get the second banana out of the cooler in the car) and all the softball exercise and roller coaster of frustration and fun and i move over to the right lane to make the turn toward my community off the main drag and i suddenly make a u-turn to cross over the main drag to the other side where there is a publix and yo-yo's just cuz i was blissfully imagining the creamy chocolate goodness... and as i park i look up and there is imperial dynasty, a mid-priced ($15-$20 for dinner) chinese restaurant that has many awards for delicious food and i decide to walk over to see if they are still open and they were closing in twenty minutes, what a coincidence, so i ordered gobs, and i mean lots of food and while they were preparing it i headed to publix and bought the yo-yo's and string cheese for jackson cuz i ate hers but it didn't melt well in the eggplant parm so i don't think string cheese is real mozzarella, but that's beside the point) and code red... yes, yo-yo's and code red... seriously, now... are we serious?... seriously?...

oh, the decadence of it all... it's all jackson's fault cuz she decided to not come home tonight and so i had to celebrate the win all by myself, ya see... that's why i ordered dinner for four, cuz i just had too... so i will have yummy chinese food for days now... and the belly is big and smiling like buddha... and after the delicious chinese food and a few bites of yo-yo and a glass of code red, i promptly passed out (sugar coma, no doubt) and woke shortly thereafter to write the previous entry and this one too cuz i am just good like that sometimes (yes, ego is still basking a bit)...

what was this delicious dinner for four, you might ask... well, it is five flavor seafood specialty of the house (jumbo shrimp, big sea scallops, and squid with vegetables in a unique blend of five spices)... big sea scallops in black bean sauce... large than your ordinary fried rice shrimp fried rice... hot and sour soup... shrimp toast... spring rolls... and a free order of crab rangoon for spending more than $25... oh so extremely yummy, no doubt... and then, after savoring and relishing and yummying (repeated over and over, not necessarily always in that order) the yo-yo... code red taunting the taste buds and brain cells all the while... it was quite the celebration...

bloated belly, yes, but blissful body and mind and the energy is wonderfully excited exhaustion... sleep, when it finally comes, will be absolutely delicious tonight... spectacularly scrumptious... and all cuz i simply decided to focus on the positive and be happy even if everything did not go quite as i'd have liked, ya know?...

hope so :)
