Thirstday vs. Bowling

Oh Thirsty Thursday, how you crept up on me. This week has literally flown by; between my Insanity workouts, 3 hours of homework minimum per night, papers, tests, the start of Twinspiration, my study abroad application...etc...I don't even know where the week went.

I promised my boyfriend, Mark, that we would do something fun on Thursday that didn't involve sitting on the couch and watching a movie (we're both exhausted by 8 pm for some reason. Looking at my schedule, I wonder why...) Therefore, we decided to go bowling with his roommates and some of their friends. I almost backed out at the last minute, but decided I would go insane if I looked at my Health Psych book for much longer. Luckily for them, bowling is one talent I believe I was not gifted with, and I made sure to announce this in the car on the way to the bowling alley to spare myself some embarrassment.

While everyone else was indulging in pitchers of beer, coronas with lime, french fries, burgers, and other million-calorie bowling alley delicacies, Mark and I decided we would save our energy and focus on having a good time sans-fatty foods. The first game, Mark beat me. Anyone that knows me well, knows I don't like to lose, so I picked up my game and beat him the last two rounds ;) I guess, like a good high-five, the trick is to look at what you're trying to hit?

I'm the top one (KG, who woulda guessed?), he's the score right below me (PROOF OF MY VICTORY!)

By the time we finally got home around 11:30 pm--aka the time most people would be leaving pregames--we were starving. Mark made the most unbelievable turkey pesto sandwhich on toasted 100% wheat, sorry I forgot to take a picture but I'll put the recipe below, which I made sure to snag a few bites of before it disappeared. I opted for a sweeter snack, my sweet tooth still very present regardless of the lack of sugar I haven't been consuming.
