I FUCKING LOVE THE HOLIDAYS!!!! Seriously! From before Thanksgiving when Christmas decorations are already up to after New Years, I am HAPPY! I love how EVERYWHERE you go there's lights and pine and all that holiday ambiance! It really does make me feel good. It completely BAFFLES me when people don't like the holidays. Stress, annoying, expensive, blah, blah, blah. I LOVE buying gifts (though I wish I could afford to buy more people gifts), love having a decorated house (though I do admit that it'd be nice to have all the shit up without doing it myself...) Actually, I don't mind decorating, it's the cleaning up beforehand and GETTING the tree IN the house part that I hate, but it's worth it. My house is very festive now (no thanks to the Boys)!
I also LOVE LOVE LOVE the parties!!! I had a tree-trimming party at my boss' place (and what a gorgeous place it is!), the Company holiday lunch, the Company (sort of) holiday party, the dinner on the town with the ladies of my family (though my little cousin — male — crashed this time)...not to mention Christmas Eve with my family (which I love! I'm lucky to have a fantastic family that I love spending time with — limited time, of course, but still, I know a lot of people that hate being with their families)!
Also, last week a few people came to town for Company reasons and they are people I love and was THRILLED to see. I look forward for the weeks that they come to town every year!
Anyway, that's all I wanted to say, I love the holidays and they do make me feel really lucky to have tons of friends and a great family. Oh, and I LOVE getting gifts! Woo! Got a new dresser, some money, Amazon gift cards, video game, DVD, CD...good stuff!
And now I get to look forward the big New Year's Eve party at my place! It's going to be expensive (party stuff, food and ALCOHOL), but we've done it the past two years and had a GREAT time, so it should be fun again!
So anyway...HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
The End.
PS In regards to my last post. I do have a short temper, but I am INCREDIBLY nice to people. Really, I am! Even when I hate them...I can't be mean. But when I'm angry...watch out! ;-P

Short-Tempered
Yeah. I'm short-tempered. I don't know why...well...my DAD is too, I probably get it from him. As opposed to my mom who's pretty much a pushover (though she's getting better and standing up to my dad more, which I'm happy about).
But so far today (and it's only a quarter to 12), I've blown up at my mom and my boss and almost my assistant (but as he's still fairly new to knowing me, I breathed first). And this is pretty regular. Not so much my mom anymore b/c I no longer live with her, but every day, at LEAST twice a day, I yell at my boss. Now, most people find this shocking, but it does seem to work for us. He knows I'm just letting off steam and that I'll still do what needs to be done and do it right, so he lets me get away with it. Plus he also knows I'm usually right and if I think he's right I really don't yell. So I'm not ENTIRELY upset that I do this, but I do feel stressed a lot, and I COULD be a little nicer... ;-)
I don't know what the deal is though, and sometimes I think to myself that I know I need to calm down when stuff happens, but then when I am angry, I really can't think about calming down...
::sigh::
I probably need therapy, but who has time for that?!?! ;-)

It's All About the Shoes!
What can I say about shoes? I've never been a "shoe girl," like Carrie Bradshaw or whatever the hell her name is on Sex in the City (neither am I a Sex in the City girl, though I've seen enough episodes to know she's obsessed with shoes). Or at least I always THOUGHT I wasn't.
When I was young, I didn't really buy my shoes. My mom would get me sneakers and then shoes for when I had to dress up. I think I remember first buying my own shoes (well, not with my own money, of course, but shopping on my own or with a friend) when I was in junior high (around 12 or 13), at Mandee's or something. But the first shoes that I HAD to have were my red Chucks (Converse All-Stars). Actually, I think it started with the green ones. I wanted like a grass-green, but all I could get was forest-green, just not as cool. Then when I went on a family trip (at age 14) I met a girl with red ones and I just had to have them. I remember it being a bit of a pain to find (they're oh-so-easy to get now), but I got them. (By the way, I still have BOTH of these.)
The next big thing was green, 20-hole, steel-toe combat boots. That was a must. This was the beginning of my punkrock phase (well, not really a phase as I still like a bit of punk — just went to a Citizen Fish show the other day — but at least my must-wear-certain-punk-clothes period). I made my mom take me all over the city looking for these. We had a such a hard time I eventually had to settle for a non-Doc Martin brand that actually had a semi-high heel. I think they cost my mom $80 or something. But I loved them and wore them all the time, until the day I got my 8-hole, purple Docs which I DID wear every single day. (The Chucks were put off the the side, only worn every so often.) Eventually I DID get 20-hole, steel-toe green docs and I was so comfortable in my purple ones that I barely wore them. But I loved them all the same.
So while I was really into these shoes, I still didn't see it as being a shoe girl. But I guess I was, just in my own way. The other day I organised all my shoes in this long shoe-holder-thingy I got. And I've got quite a bit for a non-shoe girl! Mostly sneakers of some kind, but they're shoes. I've still got the red and green chucks, now accompanied by 2 pairs of low-top ones (blue and camouflage) and a pair of greenish-brown slip-on ones. I've also got two pairs of Ben Shermans, though they're really worn out (but I refuse to bin them), a pair of Fred Perry sneakers, a pair or red Adidas that say I Heart London (although the heart is actually an Adidas symbol), some slip-ons...more. Plus my Docs! I no longer have the purple ones, I had to chuck 'em b/c I wore holes into them, but I replaced them with blue ones I picked up on my first trip to London. Still have the green ones, and now I also have a pair of 3-hole, steel-toe ones in a dark red. Then I got a pair of black combat boots (some other brand) in which I put little spikes in the front holes. ;-)
As for dress shoes, I'm still clueless. I've got two pairs of black high heels. One of which I wear almost every time I have to dress up b/c they're simple and matte black and have rubber soles so they're easier to walk in. The other one is shiny black with a strap around the ankle and much more painful (though cute). I also have "slut boots"...well, kinda. They go up to just about the knee and they have a zipper up the side, but the heel is chucky, not thin. I don't see how girls walk in those thin ones...
I did see a pair of high heels the other day that had an adorable little buckle thing in the front and I think I'm going to break down and buy them even though I have zero money.
There are a few other pairs of shoes in the closet too, which is making me re-think my "I'm not a shoe girl" stance. I've got a lot of 'em.
Anyway, the reason I thought of this — besides having just organised them — is that I bought another pair of shoes the other day! Sneakers, really. For kickboxing!!!!!! They're like wrestling shoes, the only kind they allow on the mat at the karate school where I take these classes! I was so excited to get them and I used them last night for the first time and it was AWESOME! I love them! Gives me support and keeps me from slipping in my socks! Awesome! And, when we use the bands (a big, rubber jump-rope looking thing that you step on and pull up as an arm exercise), they stop them from hurting my feet! Woo hoo!
Now I just need warm sneakers for the winter...Chucks just don't cut it. My feet are FREEZING!!! (And I REFUSE to wear the ugly, yet ridiculously trendy, snowboots all the dumbn girls have been wearing since September!!!! Gah! I hate girls and their stupid trends!)
Next up, let's talk about jeans!!! ;-)

What's Goin' On?
Hey, just thought I'd give a little update...
Went red last week! I'm talking BRIGHT FUCKING RED! It's awesome. The receptionist at the salon said I looked like a superhero!!!
Went to a wedding on Friday! Was a beautiful wedding and had almost all of my closest friends of at least 10 years there. I had a great time, ate a lot and danced a lot. And drank a lot! Little was there, but we were cool.
My little cousin cooked dinner for the family on Saturday. He caught scallops and then cooked them with pasta. Soooooooooo fucking good. Was a pretty hefty food week, hopefully I can balance it out this week. I didn't go to WW on Sunday, so I'm hoping this Sunday I'll at least be the same weight I was 2 weeks ago and not more. I had lunch with a friend today (plus delicious Tasti Delite) but I've got kickboxing tonight so I should be good. I feel a little fat though...
Another friend of mine started going to kickboxing with me. Twice so far, so that's nice. She bought the arm band thingies (it's rubber and used for arm exercises) but they didn't have the medium level so she got the hard ones. When we started using them they were too difficult so Maria told her to switch with me b/c I've been here a long time and I should be using the hard ones (I had medium). I was annoyed at first, but I realised the medium WAS getting a little too easy so it's a good thing I switched. I'm getting strong again!! Woohoo! I miss the weightlifting I used to do in high school!
I watched the incredibly predictable chick flick Because I Said So the other day. I don't know what's going on with Diane Keaton, but she was kind of annoying in this movie (AND I hear she's going to be in a movie with Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes where they're stealing money from somewhere). Mandy Moore was cute as usual, she's a much better actress than she was a singer. It was exactly what I expected, a girlie love story with a hot guy (Gabriel Macht, I love him now) that I didn't have to pay too close attention to. I've seen worse and I've seen better. At least I liked the guy in it. Not like Failure to Launch (which was just How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days with different actors) with Matthew McConaughey...I don't get why girls like him.) Plus, it had Lauren Graham (Lorelai Gilmore)!! Even though it was a small part, it made me happy. I loved Gilmore Girls!!!
Anyway, that's enough about that shitty movie. I'm really looking forward to The Golden Compass, hopefully Little will see it with me. I also want to see Rendition and Lions For Lambs. Meryl Streep's appearance on The Daily Show got me wanting to see those. She's awesome!
Back to work!

Not Bad
Little was over today to watch hockey with the boys...it was okay. He came and asked how I was, then hung out with me for 15 minutes after the game before he left. Just talking about whatever. I gave him a few t-shirts I was getting rid of (too big for me, finally letting go, I've got at LEAST 200 t-shirts...)...not bad.
I'll see him on Friday for this wedding. Yes, I got a hot dress. Yes, I did that partially for his sake. Yes, I'm an idiot. But, still, who doesn't want to look hot at a wedding?! ;-) (Also confirmed my hair appointment for Thursday! Should be a redhead for the wedding too!)
Anyway, he was here, then he left and I'm fine. I think it's just really hard to deal with when we're in a public place...I don't know what it is. Well, DEFINITELY I get upset when he's talking to any other girl (that's not someone I'm good friends with)...but it's more than that. I get more possessive or something...weird.
Oh, I also asked him to see Golden Compass with me when it comes out b/c we've both read the books (he read them b/c of me). He said maybe. :-P
Yes, I'm stupid.
The End.
PS I've got a new reader! I gave one of my best friends ever the link. He shall henceforth be known as...McEats. hehehehe

But...but...I LOVE TO EAT!!!!
I gained weight last week. 1.6 lbs. I don't know what I did wrong...I think maybe I had too much coffee and not enough water...but I didn't go over my points!
It wouldn't bother me SO much, except I had planned on gaining weight this week. That sounds funny, but it's just because I had a birthday dinner to go to on Sunday, a wedding on Friday and a family dinner (my cousin's cookin'!) on Saturday. None of which I wanted to really hold back with, so I figured I'd gain some this week, lose it next. But now I have TWO weeks of gaining I'll have to lose! Poop! Plus, I didn't want the extra weight until AFTER I wore the pretty dress for the wedding!!! :-P
On the plus side, I did enjoy a MOST delicious dinner on Sunday! I've been opening my horizons and trying to eat fish more. We went to this little French place (delicious, but slooooooow). I tried at first to be good. I had a mushroom salad (though I did have a spoonful of my neighbor's seafood chowder...fucking awesome!) and for my main course I had pan-seared tilapia with mash and veggies. Absolutely phenomenal!! Sooooo good! However, I also drank almost a whole bottle of Reisling (it was a BYOB place) — only one other person had a glass. And then I decided...fuck it...I'm not a giant, I can do this sometimes...so I had dessert! :) And I LOVED it. It was a linzer bar (like the tarts, only more like brownie shape/texture) with whip. So good. And REAL coffee! (By real I mean, with real milk and sugar instead of skim and splenda!)
So for the last two days (and for the next two), I'm going to be ultra strict, very low-point salads, not using ANY extra weekly points AND for the two days I go to kickboxing I will not use the extra points I gain from that. I'll probably STILL gain, but hopefully I'll keep that gain to a minimum. I'll try to dance a lot at the wedding too! :)
Also, I'm hoping I've got PMS and am a bit bloated b/c that would account for some weight gain! :)

Twice An Idiot
Ok, so I decided to be a Hogwarts student (Gryffindor house, of course!) for Halloween this year. I dressed up for a bachelorette on Friday and a bar party/rock show on Saturday. I bought the robe, scarf and tie, but I needed a wand. I used to have some crappy children's wand my dad gave me but I couldn't find it, so I went to/called toy and Halloween stores, but no luck. I was too last minute and they were all sold out. So I found this drumstick in my house and on Thursday night I sawed the end off of it and on Friday I just used that. Not a bad idea. However, on Saturday, I decided to try to make it look better. I got sandpaper and a file from my dad, then came home and sawed the little nub off. Then I found a knife of my flatmate's and decided to try to carve the thing.
Herein lies my first idiotic move of the night.
Of course I am cutting towards me and I end up slicing the side of my thumb. Holy crap! I've never seriously injured myself before (worst thing was spraining my ankle...I was in Rome...story for another day), never broke any bones and never had stitches. It was bleeding a lot, I grabbed a paper towel and held it tight, but I started to feel like I was going to pass out. Neither of my boys was home so I called my mom and told her I cut myself pretty bad and might pass out. So my parents came over. I didn't know if I should go to the hospital, but they thought I didn't need to and bandaged up my thumb. The whole time I'm crying like a baby. Freaked me the fuck out.
So now I have this stupid giantly-bandaged thumb that's going to drive me crazy. (Not to mention my OTHER thumb went numb right before the Great Slicing. I don't know what THAT'S about, but hey, of course I have to have that happen too!)
Anyway, I decide to still go to the Halloween show b/c I was looking forward to it (there's a Misfits cover band that plays that's actually really good and it kind of transports me back to 10 years ago, with all my punk friends going crazy). Had a decent time at the show, didn't drink for fear of thinning my blood and bleeding more. Also had to explain the thumb a lot.
Here comes idiotic move #2.
The ex was there. Little. Who I miss beyond comprehension. I hadn't seen him in a month or two. He was there ending the bachelor party night (the one that coincided with the bachelorette I went to). After the show and most of the bachelor party left, I was talking to Little. He was drunk and exhuasted from jumping around for 40 minutes. He wanted to go home, so I offered to drive him.
Then I asked if he had any band-aids I could take home b/c I didn't have any so he said to come in. So... well, I don't want to get TOO personal, but I ended up staying there. It's been over a year since the last time THAT happened.
I found out today he's been sort of seeing someone, but it's not going well. He says the same thing always happens, he starts getting irritated and snaps at the girl or whatever (I was the first...he never had a proper girlfriend before me). I told him I can't stay interested in anyone for very long. I don't know. I hate that I can't get over him. And yet there are tons of things that he does that drives me crazy...but we've both changed a lot in the last two years and I wish we could give it a shot again...
I hate me. I'm so stupid. I can't believe I let that happen last night. I wasn't even drunk (he WAS, though). I'm really surprised he let it happen too, actually.
Anyway, there you go, twice an idiot.
On the plus side, I made my 10 lb. mark today! 4 more to my first goal!
Kickboxing is going to suck with this thumb issue. I'll just have to not do the left hand stuff for a couple weeks.
The End.

After the show and most of the bachelor party left, I was talking to Little. He was drunk and exhuasted from jumping around for 40 minutes. He wanted to go home, so I offered to drive him.
Then I asked if he had any band-aids I could take home b/c I didn't have any so he said to come in. So... well, I don't want to get TOO personal, but I ended up staying there. It's been over a year since the last time THAT happened.
I found out today he's been sort of seeing someone, but it's not going well. He says the same thing always happens, he starts getting irritated and snaps at the girl or whatever (I was the first...he never had a proper girlfriend before me). I told him I can't stay interested in anyone for very long. I don't know. I hate that I can't get over him. And yet there are tons of things that he does that drives me crazy...but we've both changed a lot in the last two years and I wish we could give it a shot again...
I hate me. I'm so stupid. I can't believe I let that happen last night. I wasn't even drunk (he WAS, though). I'm really surprised he let it happen too, actually.
Anyway, there you go, twice an idiot.
On the plus side, I made my 10 lb. mark today! 4 more to my first goal!
Kickboxing is going to suck with this thumb issue. I'll just have to not do the left hand stuff for a couple weeks.
The End.

Countdown 9...
It's 9 lbs. total now! I know it seems like nothing since the last I posted was 8.4, but I gained 1.2 last week, then lost 1.8 this week, so I'm happy about it!
And I watched a lot of TV that was building up on my DVD last night...but I was up late and I'm super exhausted and really don't want to work right now. ::sigh::
Made a hair appointment for a few weeks from now, right before a wedding I'm going to. Can't wait! I hate my current hair! Boring!

Movie Review — Michael Clayton
I'm not going to say much, I'm not a reviewer, but I liked this movie. Clooney was fantastic in it.
Spoilerish:
I expected more toughness, though. The trailers/teasers made him seem so bad-ass and that there would be more of him "cleaning up" messes and shit. You don't actually see him do anything! Throughout the movie they talk about him being the best "janitor" but you don't actually see any examples of this. Instead, you see a lot of his life just falling apart. Which isn't bad!! The movie is good! I enjoyed it fully, I just wish you had a little more in the beginning showing him being super-great at what he does.
Anyway, good movie, recommended. Seriously, Clooney is really great in it. I love him now. :)

And suddenly I found, how wonderful a sound can be...
So, last night, in the middle of class, Maria announces in front of everybody that I'm starting to get definition in my arms. haha It's so slight you can't even see it, but I love her for saying so. I probably blushed. I've never heard her say anything like that to anyone before... maybe she loves me too... haha I've actually barely spoken to her...or anyone else in the class. So strange b/c in everything else I'm so outspoken, but in this class I'm so quiet. Probably b/c I'm all shy about exercising in front of others...though it's not so bad anymore, I've been there over 10 times now. I say hi and bye to some of them now and when we have to do partner exercises, I'll talk to whoever I have to partner with (my friend hasn't come to class in like 4 weeks!), but that's about it. [The best was about 3 classes ago, I had no partner so I partnered with Maria! hee! She said I did a good job on the exercise too! Yay!]
I really do love that class though. I am going to really try to not miss any more classes. Next week I have to miss Wednesday's class b/c I have concert, but I'm really going to try to put this first. Next Monday, some friends are having a bar gathering, but I am not going b/c then I would have NO class next week. They're giving me shit about it, but I don't care, this is really making me feel better about myself. I have to try to find a pay-as-you-go fun exercise class on Saturdays b/c it's such a long time b/t Wed. & Mon. and if I'm free on a Saturday, I want to go to a class sometimes...maybe I can get Maria to give me private lessons...heh heh heh heh

Maria...I just met a girl named Maria...
I finally found out the name of my kickboxing instructor that I have a huge crush on! Maria! On Wednesday (when she was filling in for the other guy b/c she's cool and he's stupid and CONSTANTLY canceling classes) I told her I had realised I didn't even know her name. She said it was Maria, then asked mine and shook my hand. She's adorable. It's like one of those crushes you have on your teachers when you're in school (though I actually wouldn't know, I never had a crush on any of my teachers). I don't actually WANT her, but I just adore her and think she's adorable. :)
So now, that West Side Story song keep playing through my head...
Maria...I just met a girl named Maria...And suddenly I found, how wonderful a sound can be! Say it loud and there's music playing...Say it soft and it's almost like praying...Maria...I'll never stop saying.........Maria!!

My Bladerunner Rant
OMG, SPOILERZ!!!!!! (haha)
OK, so I saw Bladerunner for the first time last night (it's being shown in theaters in select cities) and I have to say, I was not all that impressed.
Well, see, here's the thing. If I had seen it when it came out (and had been old enough) I'm sure I WOULD have been impressed. The themes and the cool "futuristic" setting etc. But as I didn't see it until now, I've already seen/read many stories with this whole "robots realise they're being treated slave-ish or whatever and revolt" thing. It's a cool idea, but it's not new to me anymore. And THIS particular movie tells its story EXTREMELY slow. Holy crap, I had to fight to keep my eyes open!! And also, with today's CGI and movie technology...I've seen cooler shit, so this wasn't that amazing to me. And the WORST part was the ridiculously cheesy background music (or rather, noises)!! Especially the "love" scene!!
That doesn't mean I think it's crap, really. I appreciate that most of the stuff I'VE seen has probably been influenced by this and that it was pretty amazing for it's time. AND it's not like I didn't like ANYTHING in the movie. There were some decent fights/chases (though even those seemed a bit long) and there were SOME things about this future world that I thought was cool ('specially the noodle bars on the street! Yum!) and I LOVED that guy's walking/talking toys!! I just...well, I guess it was hyped up too much for me and I was let down. I really don't think I'd ever sit down to watch it again...unless I wanted to fall asleep... :-P
Oh yeah, and then, I was told by co-workers that somewhere along the line we're supposed to figure out that Han Solo (heh) is a Replicant himself! Where the hell was I? I didn't get that. Maybe I'm just stupid. Or artistically challenged. But I think that's a pretty big point and if that's the case it should have been more clearly spelled out.
::sigh:: Oh well...I just I really wanted to love it!!!

Why Aren't You Dating Anyone?
Nothing like the hot guy at work asking who you're dating now and then asking why when your answer is "no one." ::sigh:: I told him it's b/c they all suck. Which is true. Sorta. Really, the answer is everyone I like, doesn't like me and everyone that likes me, I have very little to zero interest in. Poop. (On the plus side, I adore talking to the hot guy...I'll call him Eagle...last week he walks by me in the hall and asks if I'm losing weight b/c I look great! How awesome is that??!?)
Haven't talked to Hot Dog at all since Saturday. I guess that's done and DONE. The ex is still in my world and that sucks. I wish he would move away. Avoiding Mr. 80s (I swear he's in the closet). Link is a jerk. (He's the one I am extremely compatible with and he acts like he likes me when I see him, but then he never answers emails, etc. Doesn't help that he lives 2 hours drive away...) Whatever, all I can do is just keep trying!
(Hey Thighs, making up names IS fun. You were right!)

Operation 8.4!!
I lost another 2.8 this week!! Woohoo! That's a grand total of 8.4 in 7 weeks! So, of course, I pig out today... ;-) Well, I actually had planned on having today be one of my cheat days. I figure if I have no more than one a month, it won't hurt too much, and I'm really only doing it for special occasions. Today was my friends' bridal shower, so I let go. It was Chinese food, which is one of the biggest things I miss. (God I love Lo Mein!!) But I won't let it fuck me up for the rest of the week. Back to counting tomorrow. Hopefully this one day won't have set me back too much. We'll see!!
So now I'm JUST under 140 lbs., so instead of 20 points a day, I only get 19! ::sigh:: But that's how you loose. And once another 10 come off, it's down to 18... But then once you're maintaining they add points back until you're not gaining and not losing. But I've got a ways to go before that. Though, now I'm over halfway towards my FIRST goal! :-) 14 lbs. for the first goal, and 10 for the second. :) :) I am getting many compliments too, which are EXTREMELY helpful in sticking to it!!
Man, I love bridal showers and weddings. I'm so sad I'm not having one...or at least the prospect of one. I'm not ready to be married just yet, but I wouldn't mind a fucking boyfriend!! But one I really love... ::sigh:: I miss Little...STILL!

Myspace stalker is no more...I hope!
So I got another message from the lame joke guy and after the jokes (one of which was the first to make me laugh) he asks if he should stop sending them. So I finally respond with "Yes, you can stop." So he said he will stop being a pain in the ass.
Admittedly, he wasn't really being that much of a pain, it wasn't a big deal to delete the messages...but it just seemed kind of sad. I can't understand how someone can send me that many messages without a response and not take the hint!! So weird. Oh, well. It's over now.
Unless he decides to try again one day...
Had an incident with Hot Dog last night, guess that's over now. I did make a new friend, though!

Grrrr...
Stupid kickboxing class was canceled last night!! This is the second time I've tried to go to two classes in one week and the Wed. class got canceled! Something is wrong with the dude instructor...::sigh::
So I exercised in my room for 1/2 hour, but it's not the same. So I had to dip into my extra points for dinner/desert (2 point ice cream cup! yum!). Ah, well...
Watched the new episode of Dexter last night too. Pretty good, though I had to run away at one point. His serial killer parts where he actually cuts up people freak me out... This weeks' House was awesome, glad Cameron & Chase aren't gone for good. I love them!! Too much TV now! Still have to watch the first 2 episodes of Bionic Woman, and the second episode of Chuck (though I missed the first) and catch up with Weeds and My Name is Earl! New Law & Order SVU to watch this week...plus I still want to finish 24 Season 4!!! Too many good shows nowadays!! Oh, the trials and tribulations of a TV lover... ;-)
No TV tonight, though. Going to see Eastern Promises tonight with a friend...I've heard mixed reviews, but I like Viggo and I love Russian. And I hear there's a nude fight scene and that's awesome!! ;-)
Using some extra points tonight too, cuz we're going to dinner first!

Hurts So Good
Two days after kickboxing and my inner thighs and abdomen are so sore! And I'm going tonight too! (I think it's so bad b/c I didn't go for two weeks due to prior engagements...okay, one of them I was hungover.) But it's awesome, though! I love that kind of pain!!! Makes me feel like I'm actually doing something!! And I've been going by myself too b/c my friend has been busy with wedding planning. That's a big step for me! Yay me!!
Also...it doesn't hurt that I have a huge crush on my instructor. The female one... :-P There are two instructors, one for Monday, one for Wednesday. I've only been to one Wednesday class so far (today will be number two), and he's a nice guy, but not cute. But the girl on Mondays is so fucking pretty and so adorable and I love her laugh when she fucks something up. She's a goddamned drill sergeant, but I love her. ;-)
Looking forward to class tonight, though. His class is slightly less intense, which is good since I'm still in pain from Monday. Plus he doesn't make us do any exercises with a partner (the girl has us do one with a partner and I don't like having to do that with people I don't know).
Also, I had chicken teryaki for lunch today since I'm going to work it off and get more points back. :) Man, was it tasty!!!

Saturday Night
So I went to see the Kaiser Chiefs at the Beacon Theater, which was AWESOME, they put on an AMAZING fucking show, and I was feeling kind of tired and sick and I was actually not going to go anywhere...BUT there were people giving out fliers for this "after party" at some tiny bar where the Kaiser Chiefs were going to be (one of 'em was going to DJ there)...and at first my flatmate and I were not going to go b/c we figured it would be RIDICULOUSLY crowded and we'd never get in or see them or anything. But I thought, what the heck, it's 6 blocks away, lets walk by and see how crowded it is. So we did. And it wasn't TOO bad yet and I had to pee really bad. So we went in and the music was crap and there were crap people there, but I wanted to wait on the queue to use the loo (yes I'm going all out with the British phrases tonight, leave me alone) and so did my flatmate, so we did. It was a long queue.
While we were waiting, we met this guy Daniel, who is from Manchester and who tried to skip us, but we wouldn't let him, so he skipped the girls behind us. He was actually pretty cool and EXTREMELY friendly and started talking to us. It was cool. After my flatmate and I peed, we were discussing leaving, but we decided to check the guy that was blocking the way to the "downstairs" party and see if we could go down. He said he had to let people down slowly, blah, blah, as he let OTHER people down. Suddenly, I saw that Daniel and two other Brits (he didn't actually know) were being let down, so I said "Hey Daniel, you taking us with you?" So he was all "Yeah!" So the guy let us down. Cool, first step DONE.
Then we're there and there is this curtain thing and I was wondering what was going on behind there and so Daniel ran off and after he didn't come back we followed and he was back there. So I did my best British accent and asked if I could go back there b/c me mate Daniel was there. And so we got there and then this crazy spoiled rich bitch was yelling b/c there were people at her birthday party that she didn't know (and there was like 20 people there, pretty lame bitch) so eventually the bartender said that until 12 it was a private party and we had to leave. It was around 11:35 at this point. So we thought we might as well stay until 12 to see what happened. We did...and then at 12:05 we ran through the curtain, no one stopped us and like 15 minutes later, guess who shows up? The Kaiser Chiefs!! Most importantly the singer Ricky Wilson, who is now the love of my life!! Daniel is over there in like two seconds chatting with him, so we followed and then Daniel asks me to take a photo of them, so then I do the same. (Yay!)
Now I'm freaking out, so happy. A little bit later some other girl comes over and is talking to us about how excited she is and then she gets him to sign some card or something and then he kisses her on the cheek! So I'm all jealous, so my flatmate tells me to just go do that, so I finally go over and apologise for being an asshole but I was about to leave and asked him to sign my ticket. Then he sticks his cheek out for me to kiss (so cute) and he goes to hug me, but as he's sitting down, and I'm bent over to talk to him, when he hugs me, he basically grabs my ass (which my flatmate sees, so I have a witness) which is awesome! He jumps and apologises and I told him he was cheeky and then we left.
Long-ass story, sorry, I'm just so fucking excited!! Also, we saw Daniel again on the way out and he's just a super-cool guy, so fucking friendly and he gets away with anything, all night people just let him everywhere and he says it happens all the time and he doesn't know why (even in England where his accent ISN'T a novelty)!
It was a fucking awesome night and my flatmate was really happy about it even though he was soooo fucking tired the whole time. He just read a book called Yes Man by Danny Wallace in which Danny has to say yes to everything and a lot of times cool stuff happens so now he wants to say yes to things more often. And that's what I've basically been doing for the last two years. Saying yes! I do almost anything anyone asks me to do, b/c otherwise I'm doing nothing!! And I've had so much fun doing this! Like tonight! Fuck it! DO IT! ;-)
Also, "Saturday Night" is a Kaiser Chiefs song...and it's an appropriate title for this post!

FIx You
So I cried on the way home from work today. I blame the fact that I'm sick and weak...and I blame Coldplay. I guess I get kind of down every once and awhile due to "love" part of my life. So, I'm on the bus and I'm exhausted and my head hurts and my nose is stuffy and I'm listening to my iPod and "Fix You" by Coldplay comes on. This song always gets me (the only one that makes me cry more is "The Scientist"), there are two lines that always do it. The first is:
"When you love someone but it goes to waste."
So that's what started me off. Then there's this one:
"When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try, you'll never know
Just what you're worth."
It's like that line is trying to pick me up a bit by telling me I should let go, but since I'm already crying, I end up feeling like I'll never be able to, and then I cry more. And then of course he keeps singing "When the tears are streaming down your face..."
::sigh:: I'm so gay.
The End.

Can We Say "Persistent"?
Okay so I was at a convention and this guy (shortish, roundish, baldish...dorkish) came up to me on the last day and asked if I had a boyfriend. I should have said "Yes," but my rarely-lying brain could only come up with "Sort of." He said he had to run, but he gave me his business card and told me to email him. I promptly threw it away and then a co-worker told me that this guy had earlier asked HIM if I had a boyfriend (he was much quicker than me and told him that he thought that I did). Whatever, went home the next day. Not a problem.
However, a few days later I get a message on myspace (ah, myspace, so convenient, until stuff like this happens) from this guy. He must have found me through my job and recognised my picture. He tells me he thought I had the most beautiful smile, etc, etc, that he lives in Arizona and that we should at least be friends...or something, this was July and I don't remember it exactly (I deleted the messages in hopes that he would see that I deleted them and not bother me). Notice I just wrote "messages." That's right, I completely ignored his first message, only to get another one the next week promising me he won't hit on me, but that we should be friends and that he bets he can make me laugh. He just wants to put a smile on my face. ::sigh::
So now, every week since, I've gotten a message from him telling me jokes — really lame one's at that, I think I MAY have CHUCKLED once or twice, but that's it. And then he'll just say one thing at the end. Once it was asking my first name, once it was saying that adding him (as a myspace friend) wouldn't be my downfall or something, etc. I must have gotten like 10 of these now and I don't answer a single one!
Co-workers of mine tell me to just keep ignoring him and he'll eventually give up, but I swear, I can see him doing this forever! The last one he sent me asked me to at least read his latest blog, I figured, he can't tell if I did, so I checked it out. It was all about how he lost some people in his life and how you shouldn't hesitate to try things or it may be too late. He included "befriending someone" as one of the things one should do.
Another friend of mine said I should tell him I have a boyfriend and he's upset that this guy keeps messaging me. I honestly at this point feel like just saying "I'm not interested. Please stop messaging me." The main reason I don't just tell him to fuck off is because I may see him at one of these conventions again and I have to be nice for my job's sake.
Anyway, what the hell? I'm really curious as to what goes through the minds of some people?? I mean, I can be a bit persistent at times, but never without having any HINT of reciprocation!! In all honesty, he should have given up when I didn't email him, but I'll grant him the first message as being okay. After that, it's sad, after 10, just ridiculous!!!
Anyone (Thighs) got any ideas?
The End...for now!
However, a few days later I get a message on myspace (ah, myspace, so convenient, until stuff like this happens) from this guy. He must have found me through my job and recognised my picture. He tells me he thought I had the most beautiful smile, etc, etc, that he lives in Arizona and that we should at least be friends...or something, this was July and I don't remember it exactly (I deleted the messages in hopes that he would see that I deleted them and not bother me). Notice I just wrote "messages." That's right, I completely ignored his first message, only to get another one the next week promising me he won't hit on me, but that we should be friends and that he bets he can make me laugh. He just wants to put a smile on my face. ::sigh::
So now, every week since, I've gotten a message from him telling me jokes — really lame one's at that, I think I MAY have CHUCKLED once or twice, but that's it. And then he'll just say one thing at the end. Once it was asking my first name, once it was saying that adding him (as a myspace friend) wouldn't be my downfall or something, etc. I must have gotten like 10 of these now and I don't answer a single one!

Too Lucky?
Ever feel like things are TOO good? I remember when I was like 12 or 13 and something good happened (I don't remember what), I said to someone that something bad will inevitably happen b/c that's how it always goes. You can't enjoy anything for too long. So I've always been a little fearful when things are going too well for too long.
So I'm a tad fearful now. I can't even begin to describe how amazing it feels to love your job so much that you can't imagine doing anything else EVER. I love what I do, I love that I'm good at what I do, I love that others think I'm good at what I do, I love the people I work with on a daily basis and I love all the friends I've made through this job. I sometimes feel like one of the luckiest people ever! Seriously! And more recently I've been given a chance to taste another aspect of things around here AND a side job doing what I already love doing for someone else! Excellent! All day, everyday I'm laughing my ass off, I get to yell at my boss and he lets me, I can wear/look like anything I want. Great.
I love the house I live in, sure it could be a little closer to my job, but it's big and it's cheap, and the best part is I live with two of the best housemates I could ever ask for. They're like brothers only we don't fight! And I get to share the dog without actually being responsible for her! I've been there over 3 years now and I can't imagine leaving.
The family is great too! Ever since I moved out, I (mostly) get along great with my parents. My dad is so happy to see me whenever I visit, my mom comes to Weight Watchers with me, and they give me money randomly! :) The extended family has always been great and I have the best cousins. I love family gatherings!! I don't know very many people my age who do.
Money could be better, but that's mostly b/c I don't know how to say "no" to myself, but it's still livable.
The only area I have major trouble in, is the love life. Still struggling to not love my ex-boyfriend and having trouble finding a new one...but because of my fear of something bad happening to ruin everything else, I think that this is the price I have to pay for the other stuff to remain so good. Crazy, right? I honestly believe you can't have it all, that something will always be off. That sucks. I'm hoping to prove myself wrong, but...so far no evidence to that.
Eh. We'll see.
The End.

Shop-a-holic
Hi, my name is Girl and I'm a shop-a-holic...
It's true. I just don't know how to say "no" to myself, which has resulted in a VERY large credit card debt. (Okay, not like in the tens of thousands...but not far off...) If I feel like my jeans don't fit too well, I go and buy 5 new pairs. I see these cute little egg-men shaped kitchen utensils, so I buy everything they have. I get a $50 gift certificate for Amazon, so I send another $25. There are 10 concerts I want to go to this year (4 of which are the same 2 bands twice) so I buy tickets for all of them! (Okay, so 4 of them I didn't actually pay for...) Don't know how to say no.
Luckily I just got a new side job!! It's basically my job now, only freelancing for someone else. I still don't actually know what I'm getting paid, but even if it's only $100 a project, that's still another $100 I didn't have that can go into paying off my credit cards...and student loans...nearly done with those!!
The End.
PS I also spend a RIDICULOUS amount of money on books (I can drop over $100 in one trip to Barnes & Noble), CDs, DVDs, food and DRINKS! Even with Weightwatchers! It's actually MORE expensive b/c now I'm buying lots of low-fat food and my drinking's barely been curbed, cuz I just drink light beers and jack and diet coke! (2 points each!!)

Classy Chick
This morning I decided to take a different way to work b/c it affords me longer un-interrupted sleep (it's more expensive than my usual way) and I am very tired today. So I'm waiting for the bus and a girl I know from high school (and through mutual friends) and who I actually like (she's really sweet) showed up to take the same bus. Now, even though I like her, I was very tired and was slightly annoyed that she showed up b/c I assumed I would then be kind of forced into talking to her the whole way in. And while I'm sure it would have been good conversation, I really just wanted to sleep.
So we talked at the stop for a minute or two and the bus showed up. I get on first and sit down and as when she boards she says to me "I'll let you listen to your pod" and asks what stop I get off. I tell her "oh, ok, I was going to nap, anyway" and she waves and walks to the back. I was a little surprised, but I thought that was awesome!
Presumably, she wanted to do the same thing, but man, what a classy chick! ;-) I fell asleep with a smile on my face! :)

Ice Creamy Goodness
Man, WeightWatchers' Smart Ones desserts are fucking awesome. I had a cookie dough sundae (or something like that) last night and it was heavenly!! But it's like a tease cuz the portions are so small! I want like 4 of them, which would then be 12 points, more than half my daily allowance!
I did really good yesterday though, I had my kickboxing class, so I gained back 7 points, but I didn't use them all. PLUS, I had Spaghetti-Os for dinner (7 points) and was contemplating a grilled cheese sandwich (with fat-free Kraft singles and Light Wonder bread - 3 points), but I thought since the Spaghetti-Os weren't very healthy, I'd have a salad instead (with oil & vinegar and a few croutons - 2 points). Proud of me!! I chose vegetables!!!
And then I finished it off with that wonderful dessert...they have Mississippi Mud Pies, brownie sundae things and a strawberry shortcakes. Sooooo gooooood. I've just been thinking about them all day! I want more dessert points!!!!

Water
I'm finally drinking water frequently after years of HATING water (cuz it has no taste)! A few months ago, when I crappily attempted the Lemonade Diet (which I had to quit after one day b/c I threw up the salt water, as you can read about here: http://whatcanisayimthrilled.blogspot.com/) I decided to stop drinking coffee and soda beforehand so as not to have caffeine withdrawals too, and started drinking mostly water. And I've kept up with it and I'm so proud of myself!! I'll still have coffee maybe 3 times a week, but other than that, I rarely drink anything other than water! And I have at least 3-4 bottles (16 oz.) a day! Go me!
One problem though...I'm peeing like crazy!!! Damn it!!
The End.

Dirty Girl
I was just thinking this morning, after I washed my face, about how glad I am that I now wash my face. haha I know it's gross, but I never used to wash my face in the mornings. Just when I took a shower (which I usually do at night).
I don't know, I just got up in the morning (which takes me forever b/c I HATE getting up) and would throw some clothes on and brush my teeth. I think one of the things I hated was getting my hair wet if I washed my face. But a few months ago, I decided I was done being gross and sick of zits and my face was starting to feel greasier later in the day, so I bought myself some Clearasil face wash and I use it every morning and boy, does it feel awesome! Nothing like a clean face!!
Along those same lines, I finally started brushing my teeth at night. I would only do it in the morning. (Mind you, I still have excellent teeth and the only cavities I ever had were on baby teeth and I've lost them, so it's not like my teeth are crap b/c of this bad habit.) Now I brush at night too. Not EVERY night, when I get home late from being out, I'm prone to just plopping in bed, but most nights I'll brush!
Gettin' my act together now! Face-washin', teeth-brushin', WeightWatchin' and kickboxin'! Go me! Now I have to clean my fucking room cuz it's seriously insane!
I am still a bit of a dirty Girl, though, as I usually shower every other day. This is mostly due to the hair problem. My hair (probably from years of bleaching and dyeing) is a frizzy mess, so I need to straighten it whenever I wash it (it looks so horrendous naturally dried, I can't even describe) which is a pain in the ass, so I like to get two days out of it. If I still had my head shaved, I'd shower every day. Well, mostly. I love being IN the shower, but I'm so annoyed by the time it takes out of my night (I know, it's not that much, but it's annoying)!! Lame! But I don't think it's THAT bad...I mean, I don't SMELL or anything! Do I?

This week in Girls' life
Lets see, kickboxing was fun on Tuesday, but Thursday's class was canceled which really sucked b/c I had a high-points lunch which I THOUGHT I was going to work off. So I tried to do some of the excersises in my room, but I couldn't remember all of them and I don't have the punching/kicking bag-thing, so it wasn't the best, but I was sweating and tired after 1/2 hour so I gained back about 3 points (the class itself would get me about 7 back)!
Wednesday I went to see the Mets game with Thighs and they won and that was great! Shawn Green was the star of the night! He's great b/c he comes out to good music (often Song 2 by Blur)! :) The night ended well, too.
Last night was pretty awesome! Saw Interpol, got drunk on wine and came home with some cool merch! (Zip-up sweatshit and t-shirt.)
Tonight I'm going out with a friend who I haven't seen since her wedding a month ago, so I'm looking forward to that. Got my ass to the comic shop today, FINALLY! I hadn't been there in over a month! Have two books by friends of mine that I've been meaning to pick up.
Anyway, nothing exciting, but all in all a pretty great week!
The End.
PS Not quite. I also bought tickets to TWO MORE shows this year (the tally is up to 10 now)! Ween and Nada Surf! Man, I fucking love music!

Family, Mets & The Boys Come Home!
So I spent the weekend with my family. My dad's a big jerk and didn't want to drive 2 hours back home alone (b/c my mom and I were going to the Mets game), so just me and my mom went to visit my aunt and uncle. My other aunt and uncle were there, as well as my cousin and his girlfriend (who I used to hate but now adore), my mom's gay cousin and his boyfriend (who I also adore) and my uncle's best friend and his wife. My uncle has an awesome beach house and loves to cook, so I spent the day eatin', drinkin' and sunin' (not that I needed any more sun, I burnt myself BAD last week)! Pretty tame, but nice and relaxing, though so much of my mom was driving me a bit batty...
Oh, but before I went there, I went to Weightwatchers to be weighed and I lost another 1.25 lbs! That's a total of 4.8 lbs. in 3 weeks! Woohoo!! I can't wait to be 125 lbs. again. I swear to christ I will do this! I MUST! I had some fatty breakfast my uncle made this morning so tonight I am hungry, but I was really good at the game today and did not break down and have a hot dog or ice cream cone (which I wanted SOOO bad)! Go me!
Speaking of Mets, 4-1 and the return of Pedro Martinez! Man, he's super-awesome! He fucking hit a double and a single!! 2 for 2!! Mota sucks balls though and gave up a home run with his first fucking pitch. Lame. I bought little pig-tail thingies with little blue and orange baseballs on 'em though. They look cute around my little buns...heh. :-P
So I didn't mention, but my boys (my housemates) went camping this week, leaving me home alone for 5 nights. Not cool! :-P I don't like being along. Luckily, I only really had to be alone Tues. & Wed. night b/c I was out late Thurs. & Fri. and then at my uncle's last night. But they're back now! Our sweetheart dog was so excited to see her daddy! It's great cuz she knew the second his car pulled up and ran to the window, so I followed and when they looked up at us, I was waving and she was barking. Precious. We both ran to give our love for their return! I missed them. I'm so fucking lucky to have roommates that are my best friends too. I think it's that way b/c we WEREN'T that close before we moved in (in fact I didn't even know one of them at all). I've heard so many stories of best friends moving in together and then never talking again.
Anyway, I think I'm going to watch a movie with one of 'em, so I'm off.

The first step's a doozy!
Or a snore-zy...
Here's my first blog post. Gotta start somewhere right? Tonight I went to a Cyclones ballgame. It was pretty lame. I should have been at Shea watching the Mets trample the whoevers. Oh well, I was hanging out with some cool peeps, including a co-worker (love my job and my work peeps). Had to take a new way home, and I was a bit nervous, but it all worked out easy-peasy.
I should be in bed, and I will be shortly, but I got caught up on a message board I go to, which gave me the idea to start a Facebook account, which I then spent an hour playing on (it's pretty cool), which then reminded me that I've been wanting to start blogging forever. "Blogging." Wow, that sounds gay. I'm going to try not to get used to saying it.
I'll probably pass this on to the one person who's blog I regularly read. After that, who knows. Maybe just other "Girl"s. Which means it'd be like 5 people. :-P We'll see. Hopefully I'll have something interesting to say. But probably not.
For right now, I can tell you I'm on Weightwatchers and that'll probably come up a lot. Tomorrow I'm going to cheat b/c I have a family gathering thrown by a great cook. Eh, gotta be able to cheat SOMEtimes, no?
Okay, it's bedtime. I've screwed around for long enough.
PS I'm going to follow in my blog-idol's footsteps and use codenames. First codename she knows about: Hot Dog. Looking forward to seeing him again when he gets back from his trip. Then I have to figure out where we stand.
PPS I've decided NOT to get too personal with this thing, as I realised I'm not that comfortable with it. So I've edited this. Oh well.
