So full sized salad from Panera, not enough to fill me up. ugh. so of course then I eat the chocolate croissant that I was hoping would be a late afternoon snack. Now I have no snack.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Panera salads are bullshit.

They really are. Not making that mistake again. I can buy the bags of salad mix with all the stuff for 1/5 of the price and just eat it out of the bag at my desk. stoopid.

Panera sandwiches are also overpriced, but at least they are filling! I get so angry every time I have a salad from there. (NB: Lettuce will never be a filling lunch.)

Because books.

The baked potato soup is delicious, though.

I am trying to lose size though. I get protein on my salad, but I want more lettuce, like a giant bowl of lettuce. I guess that is what I am having for dinner tonight, I need to cook up some beans so I can add them to salads for easy cheap protein. I also need to magically lose inches and that is not happening.

I also enjoy the broccoli-cheddar soup. And actually, I haven't had any of their "power" salads -- they have chickpeas and whatnot and spinach. I bet that's worth the $$.

Annoying!

I know. I did just get inspired though to make a low-rent standing desk set-up. a file box on top of my desk puts the keybooard at the right height. A printer toner box with some notepads stacked on it seems to be the right height for my mouse. My screens are too low, but I have them angled up and while not ideal, I think I can walk in place and work.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have a thingy that lets me raise up the keyboard so I can use it while standing at work, I should take advantage of that more. The mouse is a little awkward, but I can probably get used to it.

I think last time I had a Panera salad it was pretty filling but that was last summer and someone else was paying for it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I don't go to Panera because there isn't a whole lot on the menu if you don't eat bacon.
