cheap chinese is still expensive

the reason i love a chinese buffet is i love variety in my meals and to get variety outside of a buffet requires spending a lot of money and having a lot of leftovers which can be awkward at a restaurant and even more costly in take out... so two appetizers (large order of spare ribs and crab rangoon) and two entres (shrimp in black bean sauce and shrimp and scallops in garlic sauce) and large shrimp fried rice plus tip was about $60 and there are two meals, at least, in the fridge... yummy, but the back made it a painful experience to try to sit and eat... i finally sat back and munched on the rubs because it was less painful than sitting up... i texted jackson asking her to put the food away because i am as immobile as possible at the moment and hope to find a way to sleep tonight that does not leave me even more immobile in the morning as i have one of the busier weeks ahead and much of it involves training others at the office so working from home is not an option most days... sucks to be me at the moment...

alone is even worse...

sad narf...
