tomorrow there is a big party after work. it's our last week before our 4-week hiatus and all, so we've all been looking forward to it for a while. one of my colleagues and i have been joking that we were totally going to fast in the week/days leading up to this. then it went from a "fast" to a "diet". then it morphed into "diet" to "magic diet pills". here is the latest e-mail exchange with how we're going to turn into a size 2 by tomorrow at 8pm:

I can top that as far as consuming more fat and calories. Matt and I went to burger king. We actually trekked 3 blocks in the heat to get this crap too.

This is the worst diet I've ever been on.
