Amazing Defeat No. 256

January 9, 2008 at 9:28 pm (Amazing Defeats) (, , )

What are amazing defeats?

They are things that I’ve always been too much of a girl to do, and then somehow, I do them. Miraculously. Amazing defeats.

I went for a walk for some exercise and a cup of coffee after donating blood, when I decided to stop for a burrito.

At Beans & Barley.

By myself.

They took good care of me.

I read my book.

Side note - I barely got annoyed with the girls sitting next to me talking about religion and politics. Barely noticed them. I felt French/bad ass.

Amazing Defeat No. 256:

Dining out alone.

Yeah!
