nibbling

Call time for the week has been seven a.m. which puts me in

the middle of AM rush hour commute. I hit Starbucks on the 

way to work, usual "Big Boy's" coffee, cheesy bagel/cream 

cheese, banana too. With traffic I had time to enjoy the cup

of java, along with bagel, which at time one has both hands

full but with the steering wheel. Got to work; again the stairs

up high. Between the chaos and more 'cocks' to spoil the 

broth. There is nothing like doing things twice or more.

AM coffee break and it was commissary Starbucks, with

muffin. I nibbled half of the muffin (top part) threw the rest

away. Back up the stairs, more running around with hair on

fire. That made me hungry for lunch, which was roast beef

sandwich, the works & avocado, only the sandwich. Back

to work this time on the floor putting stuff together. More

problems and it was back up the stairs for more chaos.

Afternoon break was the banana from the morning.

Back to it for more hair on fire routing. Did the rush hour

traffic home. Didn't feel much like eating only nibbling,

so it was Starbucks for the last cup of the day, scone,

banana. Was that a bad thing to nibble? I know the scone

wasn't the best choice. More later.

work & eats & work then go home

Once again it was up early but not at the butt crack
of dawn early. This time only hit snooze button once,
had to get up or chance being late. Its that 5mins
difference on freeway that could be the kiss of
torment. Hit the Starbucks on the way to work
for my first cup of the day, cheesy bagel/cream
cheese & banana for the drive in mild traffic.
Made to work with time to spare. Work up high
on the stage again today prepping it for reshoots.
AM coffee was at the small little Starbucks corner
in the commissary and walnut banana muffin
(muff would have been nice too).
Back to work, I must of climbed the stairs about
10 times (stage is four stories). Getting dirty
with perm dust as I work up high. Then it was
down the stairs again for lunch, quesadilla with
avocado. Back up the stairs to the perms for
more perm dust and rigging; After the end
of 12hrs its the last trip down the stairs for the
commute home in rush hour traffic. Last meal
was hot pastrami & zucchini strips, that
made me feel stuffed. Hit the shower, then
bed and do it all over again tomorrow.

Old Fat Guy scrambling today.

I got the call for work on production yesterday, I had/have to rig

the stage for the sets that are being built. It was an early call time 

but not the butt crack of dawn. I don't know how many times I hit 

the snooze button. I finally got up & the sun was no where 

to be found. On the way out I stop at the local Starbucks, 

cheesy bagel/cream cheese and banana ('Hey Rachel', who I saw

coming to work as I was leaving-she one of the baristas-also she 

taunted me to have 31 flavors). Now for the commute in AM traffic; 

so I had plenty of time to enjoy cup of java, cheesy bagel & banana. 

I fucking hate commuter traffic especially when the Metro Rail 

goes flying down the center of freeway. I was doing the up high 

work of rigging chain motors; running the "motor feed", "power feed" 

& placement of remotes (PDs). Got a bit hungry by the time it was 

AM coffee break. Went to the commissary to get another cup of 

Starbucks (yup they brew Starbucks) & a burrito made with 

avocado & bacon. Back to work up high on stage, until it was 

wrap time 12hrs later. Then it's the fucking commuter traffic drive 

home. I hate fucking traffic (there goes that Metro Rail flying down 

the middle of freeway). For the last meal of the day it was taquitos 

and combo burrito. I want something fast, need to get a shower 

after being covered in 'prem dust'.

Old Fat Guy lost to battle to craving.

If you are reading this thanks, I've never done the Blog thing. 
Okay on to what is going on as of today. 
I pedaled my bike over to the local Starbucks for that first cup of the day, cheesy bagel/cream cheese. Got a banana for later. Tonight I will be a burger on sour dough. I have been off Diet Coke now for about a month... 
(yes I do have withdraws)
Now for the lost battle of last night. I was going through a bad state of mine for a Fat Guy... the battle of craving... I had a bad craving for cake & ice cream. Like a junky it would be just a bit, it would be give me the biggest slice of cake & pile on the ice cream. After the pacing and second cup of java at Starbucks (hoping that a cup of java would take the edge off), I lost part of the battle. I gave in to the ice cream... it was three scoops I couldn't stop at one. It took everything I had not to go over the three scoops for a sundae or a pre-pack carton. I thought I would pay for my down fall on the scale but it didn't happen.
That's it for now... the struggle continues...
