Whirling Dervish

If you haven’t read about it on Twitter, tomorrow a CAMERA CREW is coming to my apartment to film a couple of segments about Operation Beautiful and blogging in general.  Now, I cannot tell you who this camera crew is for, but it’s major.  And if you guess, I cannot tell you if you are right or wrong.  :)  You have to wait a month (at least) unfortunately.

 

I am obviously feeling a little frantic, as I did not get home from work until 9 PM, and my house is a disaster.  I am a clean freak, and the thought of high definition cameras in my apartment is too much to bear!

 

Frantic/excited face:

Eeeeee! MUST CLEAN!

 

So, I’m going to make this snappy.  Here are my afternoon eats…. Orange juice (I was out of fruit).

Cereal…

A Green Monster with just spinach, milk, and ice (I was out of banana):

Dinner was eaten on the fly.  I had a ProBar.  These clock in around 375 calories.  But they just don’t fill you up the way a "real dinner" does.

And a plate of veggies, hummus, and pita chips:

Schedule for the next 24 hours:

 

  • Right now: Feed dogs, clean house… specifically, DECLUTTER!  Everything is going into the bedroom.  I hope they don’t ask to see it.
  • Hopefully before 11 PM: Go to sleep!
  • 5:00 AM:  Wake up.
  • 5:45 AM: 6.0 mile run with Megan and Kelly (and my new Garmin, Edward Cullen)
  • 8 AM – 12 PM:  Work a half day
  • 12:01 PM: Figure out what the heck I’m going to wear for the biggest moment of my blogging career!!
  • 1 PM: Camera crew arrives
  • 7 PM: Camera crew departs
  • 7:01 PM:  Wine!

    Hmm, I'm guessing Oprah (even though you said not to guess lol), but usually Oprah's segments aren't secret, so I'm not sure. Whatever it is, it sounds exciting. Good luck with it!
