Woke up WAY later than I had planned on this morning (by 6 hours!!),...plus, TOM arrived this morning, and made his appearance very PAINFULLY obvious!! I spent half the day trying to catch up on work that was delyaed by the 6 hours of sleep, and distractions and groanings borne out of TOM's presence....took a nap around 5 pm, and was woken up by my friend's call reminding me to go out tonight! I PANICKED then. To be or not be. To go out or not to go out. And how the hell am I supposed to get everything done!
I tried to rationalize and re-plan, and then said, "What the hell! Life's too short!". So, as a result, I didn't do much else (not even working out), and instead, got ready and went out to dinner and then later to this cool private lounge called Foundation Room atop House of Blues (this is a chain, and if anyone gets a chance--definitely check it out!!)...The place rents at 8k per month to corporations for their fancy shindigs....it was very seductive and opulant, kinda Morocco meets Russian Tea Room!! My bio picture here in blue is from tonight.
For dinner, we went to a new Vietnamese restuarant, and after a little inner debating, I decided to skip my favorite dish with noodles and fried spring rolls, (i.e., carbs and fat), and settled for a tofu stir fry (boring! and something I make at home anyway!), but I thought the worse in that is just the salt and oils..at least there's no carbs, and I'd hope that the sauce would be different from what I make at home...eh...it wasn't anything to write home about...the ambience was great though. I skipped the great-lookin cocktails, desserts, apps, etc. And ate only half of my entree, and got the other half to take home.
After that, at the Foundation room, once again I stayed away from the fabulous cocktail specials, and had a glass of red wine instead. I hope that was a better choice..we'll see.
I left the party not too late and came home at a surprisingly early hour--12.45 am(I wanted to come home and get some work done, and also get an early start tomorrow morning). I did come home and finish the remaining part of my dinner :( My excuse is that I plan to be up late, and need some sustenance!
MEals and points for the day: go lean kashi cereal with soy milk(2) coffee w/ soy milk(1)
lettuce wraps (1) almonds (2) soy beans (2) 1 rice cake (1)
Dinner: fried tofu and veggies stir fry (10?), with rice (4) 1 gl. wine (2)

yes, milady, did read the mail, and wrote you back!! I might just have to enroll in those type-faster-than-you-can-read-or-speak classes!!! LOL! And thanks for the compliments...! The picture looks a little weird coz FS has a weird little display screen and the resolution sucks...but I changed two pics already, so this will have to do! And yes, I'm totally glad I went---it was a beautiful warm night...not too many of those left in this part of the country now that summer's ending!

My daughter went to a couple concerts at House of Blues. I didn't know they had a private lounge on top. Sounds very cool. Was there a concert going on below?

yeah, i believe there was a show below..and also, the usual dinner crowd. It was a very hopping, happening night tonight! The private lounge is VERY private..you have to be on a list and get in by private invite...tht's all very nice, but I can't see how and why those corporations afford to pay 8 grand a MONTH!! Ridiculous!! And I can't imagine that they have "meetings" in these seductive, boudoir-type rooms!!!! hmmmm...good thing your daughter doesn't know these places!!

There's a HOB in South Carolina too, but I haven't gone. I think Greg has several times though. Don't feel guilty about not getting things done, they will eventually. :) Great point job!

I think you did great with choosing to go out (you know how I feel about "all work and no play"!) and then enjoying yourself without making food and drink the main focus. You can't feel bad about a lovely evening out with friends AND staying within points! A+!

Agree with all above, great pic, great color on you, great place, good job on choices, etc.! Jealous seems to be a theme for me today...I'm jealous of you living in New York and having all these fab options for a night out on the town! We have a HOB here but it's nothing like what you described! Glad you had a great night!
