So last night I watched the Padres play the Diamondbacks from a suite box. You know the kind that have a lounge area with two flat screen TV's and then have two rows of seating that overlook the game and an additional flat screen to watch the replays on. The ticket was given to me from Andrew. He is one of Seans friends who won the suite at a charity silent auction. Man it was really cool. Food and drinks were not included by Andrew always seemed to be handing out drinks left and right. I got downtown early and went to the East Village Tavern to have a few beers and dinner. I sat at the bar and watched the Chargers play. I chatted with the guy sitting next to me a bit. Nice guy. His name is Shane. He kind of reminded me of Steve V. A little awkward and quirky but overall a really nice guy. I had a 22oz beer and a pint before I went to the game. For dinner I has these small steak sliders. They were toasted Hawaiian rolls with skirt steak and Gorgonzola cheese. Overall I thought they were pretty good.
Then I headed to the stadium. Picked up my tickets at will call and met up with Sean and the rest of the group at the suite. Man was it nice. While I was at the game I ate my weight in peanuts, had two more beers and a rum and coke. I figured that since this night was a once in a lifetime thing I wasn't going to not enjoy it by eating only 3 nuts (1 block fat) and only having one beer. The night was a cheat night. As I walked out of the suite around the 7th I saw that the next suite over was getting desert. I can't remember the last time I had cake so I thought why not, it's a cheat night. I found the place that had the sweets and ordered two chocolate chip cookies. Then I was able to sweet talk the nice lady to put some soft-serve ice cream on one of the cookies so that I can have an ice cream sandwich. OH MY. As I walked back to the suite people smiled at me because they saw how happy I was licking up the sides of my ice cream sandwich. It was good. Padres won in the bottom of the ninth with a walk off homerun. A great game and a really great night!
Went home, played with Max a bit and then went to bed. Around 3am my stomach decided that it was pissed. It was not happy with the amount of fat (my weight in peanuts) and the carbs (the beer) that I had eaten all night. I could not sleep. I had a really bad stomach ache! I spent some time in the restroom and was paying the price. If I hadn't parked in the no parking zone after 8am I don't think I would have went to work. My stomach still does not fill right and all day I've felt icky. I've read posts about people who are on the Zone and then have a cheat meal and feel so bad the next day they decide that it is not worth cheating. I thought they were crazy.....until today. I feel horrible. I know that when I go to the gym this evening I am going to be off and feel like crawling into a ball on the rubber mats! Maybe I'll post a picture of that!
