Paleo Day 3 and Revenge of the April Fool's Day prank

Yes, I was a victim of my own prank. You see, Josh and I were headed home and I thought "Hey! What a perfect opportunity to totally pwn my mom and sister! Yea!" So I texted my sister that we had broken down outside of Tacoma. I made a big to do about our situation, how mad Josh was, and how we probably wouldn't make it home. My mom even called Josh's parents! Gee, I felt so sneaky. So, after I dragged it out sufficiently, I texted mom "April Fool's!"
Her response, "ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!" *insert much LOLing on my part here*
Boomer gets carsick. He is stoned on benadryl.
UNTIL... my sister called, angry of course, and said that my dad had immediately jumped in the car to come rescue us and they couldn't get ahold of him to inform me of my shenanigans. I should have known they were pranking me (c'mon, dad NEVER leaves the house without his phone. Besides, Josh and I are adults now, we have adult problems we have to solve on our own- including a fictional breakdown.) Anyway, I was so mad I turned red (much to Josh's delight).  Dad was going to be so pissed when he found out! How could they not know it was a joke!!! I hung up and threw my forehead into my hands. Then she called back giggling. I knew, and I was relieved and ashamed. Pranking was never my thing anyway.

In other big news, Josh graduated A school today!!! He's officially part of the fleet. I'm so proud of him, but the looming expectations of qualifications and loooong days has me super nervous and a little sad. I may be without a husband for six months. :(


Today was an interesting Paleo day. I can't give you my exact counts, but I can tell you what I ate.
1 apple with 2 Tbs of almond butter
1 small zucchini
4 oz chicken
5 egg whites
1.5 yolks
1 chobani yogurt
Ham
Pork Sausage
A handful of cashews

and in my naughtiness.... I cheated. Well, ok, I don't like to think of it that way. It's a meal plan not a prison plan as Josh said. I had about 1 tbs of chocolate chips which I will tell you now, after a week of paleo, were not even remotely interesting. I also had half a jar of snapple lemon tea. Sugar, I know. BUT, I was staring at endless roads with boringness on either side and I needed the caffeine. I'm still really tired as my body goes from a high carb diet to a low carb diet. I'm always full though! Yet, my lethargy has inhibited my will to exercise, and I'm very nervous about my sudden diet change. I don't know the exact science behind the paleo diet, but I know that I'm not interested in gaining weight unless my body deems it necessary in muscle mass. My mood is still stable, I'm much more agreeable, and I feel pretty good. Dang good. I'll post the pics from today tomorrow. My little bro's computer is a bit slow!
