10. Oh, let me tell you about this weekend

Long story short, my partner is always borderline pre-diabetic. It's a genetic thing in his family. He's a healthy guy who works out regularly and all that. It's just . . . Filipino diet isn't super helpful. ("Oh, we're having rice with every meal, including breakfast?!) And I've been in school and sitting a lot, so even though I do gym 5 times a week, being more disciplined with diet wouldn't steer me wrong. Scrub season starts up again in August! So we go to Costco to stock up on some healthy staple things to last 3 months or so. Proteins, nuts, oatmeal, frozen veggies and berries, low carb tortillas, etc. Shelf stable basics.

I don't know wtf happened, but somehow there's a strawberry cream pie in the fridge, double baked pistachio croissants, a pound cake for some reason, a bag of doritos, etc.

It turned into this, "Ok, diet starts when this is all gone." Babe, we got this from Costco. "When this is all gone" could be November.

2027.
