35

So, I've written about this girl I don't want Magnum to see. She's been out of town for about a week, and my life has been awesome. She got back yesterday. And, I don't like it. Why can't she go away for good?

In other news...

I'm hungry. Magnum and I are doing this biggest loser competition...and I'd give anything to beat him. There's us and about 15 other people doing it. So, anyway, he's extremely dedicated to it. Me, not so much. I tend to fall off of the wagon & into chocolate cake on the regular. :) I think he has an advantage because he goes out to work every day. He can go pick up something healthy for lunch. I get to root through the freezer for a box of broccoli or the pantry for a can of green beans.

The good news is, I'm doing it. When I attempt things, such as this, I tend not to tell people, because I expect them to expect me to fail. Especially Magnum. I mentioned I might join the local volunteer fire department...and he pretty much said "yeah right!" Wouldn't it be refreshing if he said, "Awesome baby. I know you'll be great at it." Then I told him I wanted to get my doctorate, and he reminded me how long it's taken me to get this far. Fucker.

So, here's my big plan...which has worked for me in the past. I'm not eating red meat. Actually, I'm eating very little meat at all. I'll eat lots of veggies and whole grains. Lots of water. Oh, and on the excercise end...I dance. A lot. Everyday. I got this new ipod shuffle and I loaded it with only rockin' songs. And when I listen to it, I literally can not sit still. Oh, and I joined the Y. I signed my whole family up the night before my birthday. And we have yet to go...but we will. Isn't it funny how for night after night and weekend after weekend we sit home with nothing to do...until we have something to do? In a perfect world I'd get up at 5:30 and go out and work out until 7 or something. Ha. Can you even imagine it? Me. Up. Before the sun? Yeah, no.

Ok, here I go to forage for food. Ugh.
