What's On Your Thursday Menu, RNYers?
Good Thursday morning y'all! I don't know why I always want to type "y'all". I'm a lifelong New Yorker; we don't say y'all. Maybe I should go with "youse guys". LMAO
Sooo, I know you're all dying to know, but my sleep has been way better since the melatonin supplement was introduced. I actually slept through the night last night. When my alarm went off I was like, "WTF is that?!". Good stuff all around! I'm still moving forward with the sleep study, but it's such a relief to get quality rest, even for a couple of days. AND, my rescheduled 2 year post-op follow up is tomorrow. It's in the afternoon, though, so that super sucks because I'm not going to be able to make it to 3 pm without drinking/eating. LMAO Note to self: identify lightest clothing items in closet and set aside.
QOTD! In Susan's summer reading thread, Kelly mentioned guilty pleasure books. I want to hear about your guilty pleasure music. I readily fess up to loving show tunes but my love for 'N Sync and Will Smith I keep on the DL. If I'm alone in the car and a Will Smith jam comes on, I will rock that **** But only if I'm alone. I mean, I'm 46 and I want to maintain my rep. Youse guys can keep my dirty little secret, right? LOLOL

Huh. Those macros are weird. Well IDGAF, because avocados!
UGH My post op appointments are always in the afternoon, every damn time, since we dont get to pick when they are!
YAY FOR SLEEP!!! I am so glad the melatonin is helping!
QOTD: Guilty pleasure music, huh? Well I am HUGE into show tunes, but I don't hide that, anyone who knows me knows this. I will jam out to pretty much anything, no embarrassment! I mean the other day I played MMBop by Hanson for my kids and rocked that ****! HAHAHA

I bought and tried the Bolthouse Farms avocado cilantro dressing, I HATED IT!! I love me some avocados, so I was really hopeful. Even my husband didn't like it, and he pretty much eats anything.
My legs are still killing me from LEG DAY on Tuesday, yikes. But tonight will be elliptical and whatever is on the schedule for strength. I can't remember lol
Aww, boo to your Bolthouse Farms hate! Send me your leftovers. LOL
But yay to your love of show tunes!! What's your favorite show? I have so many, but I think West Side Story and Les Miz top my list. And The Music Man. And Rent. Oh, and Guys and Dolls! HA! I could go on forever...
UGH, I want to see Hamilton sooooo bad. My brother is a stagehand in NYC and I'm like "Who do you know that can get me tickets?". So far, nothing. LOL I need to get me the soundtrack, though.
Another secret show tunes lover here. I have Sirius Radio and have the Broadway channel programmed (of course the preset is hidden pretty far down so most people don't see it. My all time favorite is Les Miz, but Guys and Dolls runs a close second. I have an irrational hate for South Pacific, Camelot and the King and I, but other than that, I'll listen to most anything.
