All Blown Up and Stuff...

So, the "family" computer pretty much blew up. The hard-drive fried its own brain on a dare, apparently. So along with all my pictures, my English papers from last semester are now lost. It kind of sucks that I have lost MONTHS of work. Bleh...anyway, it feels like it's been MONTHS since I've been on the internet. Seriously. Who knew that life without home access to the internet would be so...boring.

Right now, I've commandeered my brother's laptop to get some blogging out of my system. I've been craving my blog. Not so much Facebook or my email. I can check those from my phone, but my blog. My heck! I've been going through blogging withdrawls like crazy and really, it's only been a couple days since I've been without. Okay. It's really only been 2 days since I've been without internet.

Anyway, I really don't have anything to update the blog-o-sphere on. Other than I've recently finished the Matrix trilogy and have watched the newer Pride and Prejudice this weekend. I could discuss, at length, my love for Pride and Prejudice. I love Jane Austen.

Okay, well, I suppose that 2:30 am is a perfectly respectable bedtime for someone who slept in WAY too long. Although, I popped in season 7 of Gilmore Girls and I kind of want to finish the first DVD.

Over and out, yo.

I didn't realize you liked Jane Austen! You'd think I would have known that about you. Did you get to see the new Masterpiece Theatre "Emma"? Soooo much better than the Gwenyth? Paltrow one, though Mr. Knightly was much more handsome in that one than in the new one. We'll have to have a Jane Austen chat sometime. Love ya!

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
