Whatcha eating today VSGers...Wednesday!!
I leave for GenCon tomorrow, so I finally get to pack today! I'm super excited and also nervous. It's my first trip since surgery and I'm worried I'll forget to pack something that I need. But I'm really looking forward to flying and being more comfortable than I have been in over a decade. :D My partner has lost weight too, so I'm hopeful that we'll both feel awesome post-flight.
I still don't know what I'll eat for lunch since I haven't looked in the fridge yet. I guess I'll go do that now. I might just have a yogurt since I got a bunch of different ones to try last week.
