bing much?

I went to a house warming party for a friend at work last night.  I also ran a really easy 2 miles with another friend from work right after work who is wanting to "learn" to run.  Although those two things seem unrelated, because of the run I was starving before I got to the party.  The rational part of my band brain told me to eat something before I went, the gluten in me said nope, there is going to be lots of food there to eat. 

Long story short, cold cuts, cheese, chips, pretzels...if it had a high sodium and fat count, it was there.  My problem was what we call Hamlin's dip (Hamlin's is a Mexican place about 45 minutes away that serves this artery killer with the chips and salsa.  I was always smart enough when I lived close enough to that place to ask them not to bring it, and never tried it.  Well I made the mistake of eating it because a friend made it.  I seriously thought they were going to have to get me a straw.  How bad is it you ask?  Well here is the recipe I got this morning on email from the friend that made it:

2 quarts mayo
1/2 cups olives
1/2 cup onions
2 shakes of garlic powder
4 ounces blue cheese crumbles

Put in mixer

Here is the funny thing, I hate mayo and olives. 

When I got to work they brought the leftovers in to the office, damn them, and they put it on my desk, damn them. 

I didn't weigh this morning.

Tonight I am taking my mom to a concert, Dwight Yoakam!!  I am usually not a fan of country music but my uncle used to be in a band that played southern rock, and they played his music all the time.  That and the fact that he is a kick ass actor made me have a deep fondness for Mr. Yoakam. We are going to go eat at Toby Keith's before the show, which will be another calorie fest.

I am afraid to step on the scale.  But, ya know, a lot of times after I eat like this my body kind of goes into a WTF mode and I end up losing.  I hope that is the case!!

Someone stop me please.
