I tried to be chill, but you're so hot that I melted...

Man...I have an hour to fill before Letterman is on tonight. That's probably the one thing that I miss about not getting any channels at my place. Late night television. Ok, well mostly the news and Letterman. Haha...can you tell my age? I miss the news enough to mention it in my blog. Gosh, how boring am I?

So, I am a little peeved that my ward is a little anti-social these days. Ok, maybe I noticed it before, but was probably in denial. Now, that I don't hang out with the same group anymore, I see that people have a rough time going out of their way to fellowship the new and old of the ward. There is a definite clique in the ward and honestly, they're all a little old to even act this way. My roommate, Laura, called the Relief Society President yesterday to see if she still had tickets to the General Relief Society Broadcast for Saturday. She never called my roommate back. If anyone from church called me, regardless of whether or not it was business, I'd call them back. I'd expect more of people with leadership callings, such as the Relief Society President, to call people back in a timely manner. It rubs me the wrong way when someone who has that kind of leadership is anti-social and basically shuns new people. Don't get me wrong, I love my Relief Society President. She's a great person. But really? Regardless of whether or not you're the President or the visiting teacher, you should at least say hi to the new people at least once before the month goes by. I don't know...I just feel a tad let down by the President. She is normally on top of things. Lately though, she pretty much ignores most people. Laura does have a pretty big personality and can come off as a I-don't-care-what-you-think-of-me kind of girl. But in spite of that, she's just like everybody else. I almost suspect that Lynn, the RS president, is a tad intimidated by Laura. Which she shouldn't if Lynn actually got to know Laura...which you can't do if you don't talk to the new people. Vicious cycle I tell ya.

Anyway, I needed to get that out of my system.

Um...yeah...

I wish I had something more exciting to blog about. If I waited for that to happen, I'd probably never blog at all. Uh...my dad might be coming down this weekend. Don't know yet. If he does, it usually means I get a free meal and an interrogation session. Bleh...

Well, I am officially out of things to blog about. Oh wait! My roommate, Laura, got hit by a car yesterday while riding my other roommate's bike. Part of her upper thigh and arm are bruised and I think that the bruising is only going to get worse from here on out. Oh and she's limping. Definitely not good.

Ok...I'm out.

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just

Slowly but surely

The weight loss has slowed just a little. I've only lost roughly 3 pounds this week. But I am determined to lose at least 80 pounds by my birthday. It's a tall order that's for sure. I have about 34 days to do it. I have to lose 2.4 pounds a day to surpass my goal by a little over than a pound. I suppose I'll have to be more diligent on my diet and exercising. I won't be disappointed if I come close though. The whole point of me going on any sort of exercise/diet plan is to get healthy and to get ready for Hawaii. I refuse to fly on a plane at my current weight. Mostly because I don't want to be embarrassed if I have to get a seat belt extender. I don't want to. I refuse to be one of those people that have to get special accommodations because of my weight just to fly. I think that I've come a long way from how I ate and exercised before. I pretty much look forward to my walks every day and I don't crave soda anymore. I actually had about 4 ounces of
