R U Kidding Me?

SNOW. It is Easter Weekend and it looks more like Christmas outside than it did at Christmas! What happended to sun dresses, budding trees, Spring and tulips? The poor Easter Bunny might just freeze before he makes it to deliver anything. What a shame!

Have a great one where ever you are though! Linz

Here Kitty, Kitty

I feel as though I have been a stick of dynamite with a really short fuse for a while now. I am really just irritable. However, I seem to be surrounded by Dumb People that are just ready to set me off.

For example, there is a girl that I have been seeing lately at the gym that is ridiculous. The first time I saw her there, she stayed on her cell phone until her little friend showed up. They were one machine apart from each other...there was a lday trying every so patiently to elliptical machine herself into shape while reading a book as these two people talked over her. Move to machines that are beside one another for goodness sake. For that matter though, there were talking so loundly about the most inappropiate topics that I couldn't even drown them out with my iPod. She was talking about why she was still single and telling her friend - who, btw she was obviously the hag too - about a date she had. He keep screaming, "No, he didn't" with the attitude and little head shake.

I was so annoyed during this trip to the gym, you have no idea! Well, yesterday, she was back. Alone, but back. On the treadmill...on her phone. She was not talking to anyone...just holding the phone up to her head. WHY? Please, if you have insight, tell me why someone would bring a cell phone to the gym and pretend to be on it while working out!

I hope everyone is doing well. I am back at it on the weightloss scene. I am working really hard again and hope to be down to 80 lost by June. Will it for me people! :)

P.S. I know the title of this has nothing to do with my posting, but I felt like URGH had been taken too much lately! :)

BLAH

That is how I feel. Blah. Crappy. Grumpy. Overwhelmed. Irritable. Annoyed. Icky. Unpleasant. Yucky. Unsympathetic. Generally Unpleasant.

Please, God...make it stop!

Funny Story

This is the conversation that I overheard leaving the gym yesterday:

Boy 1: So, yeah, where do you tan?
Boy 2: Too Dark Tanning.
Boy 1: I got ringworm there. Like their beds were dirty or something.
Boy 2: Ringworm?
Boy 1: Yeah, like a rash on my back.
Boy 2: Ew
Boy 1: So, I am looking for another place to get me tan on.

You should have seen them. All buff and working on their muscles for the "women" and talkign about their "tanning" habits.

Have a good one.

Newest Obsession

My birthday was almost a month ago now, however, I am still in love with my present from TJ! I got new Crocs. They are indeed my latest obsession. I am still waiting on my latest version (the Prima) but I do have on my pink Mary Janes today! If you have not bought a pair yet, RUN...no really, RUN out and get one or two pair of the most comfy shoes you will ever ever wear in your life!

In other news, I lost 6.5 pounds this week on the WW scale and 8 pounds on the home scale. I guess that is the difference between wearing clothing and not wearing clothing. I feel really good about it. I have now lost 61.5 pounds and got my 60 pound star today. YIPPEE! I am now 0.5 pounds away from my goal (not the big goal, the little one) which was 62 pounds. That is 20% of my original body weight! Thanks for all your support by the way!

Sniff, Sniff...Cough, Cough

I am on the mend. TJ took one look at me on Friday and said, "Get up, we are going to take you to the Doctor!" I did. I got 2 shots and 10 days worth of steroids and antibiotics. I also got myself some anti-nausea medication since all the drainage was bringing my tummy down too.

I feel better today. Finally...after the three day weekend. However, everyone at work says I still look flush and not great. THANKS! I will remember that next time you look like crap. Because that is really what that means - Hey, you look like poop! Great day, huh?!

I have had a rough month. Really, it seems like a really rough month behind me. I feel as though I must pick up and get with the program. I have not lost weight and I feel fat and icky. I figured out all of the numbers today as well. If I get back on the wagon hardcore and I lose 2 pounds per week, I can be at 200 pounds in 38.5 weeks. Now, with that being said, I will still have another 23 pounds to lose to get to goal, but I will be under 200 pounds and that was the goal for 2007. THERE ARE ONLY 40 WEEKS LEFT PEOPLE! We are already in week 12 of 2007! Can you believe that? So, time has been a wasting and I need to get back on it hard.

To the gym I will go tonight. I also want to get back into the routine of going to the gym in the morning. That frees up so much in the evenings and it will give TJ and I more time to play tennis, walk the dogs or go biking. THUS exercising many many times a week!

Wish me luck. I need your support. There, you have it...I am asking for help!

I hope the weather breaks soon. It is so dreary. I hope it is sunny wherever you are!

It's 9:07

And I am ready for bed. By the time I finish this post, it will be later than 9:07, but as soon as I am done, I will be seeing the numbered sheep.

I feel like I am in a "dark funk." A friend of mine at work says that they have been in a "dark funk" and I sure do know what she is talking about. I was speaking with Mookie tonight and she is also in a "dark funk." We are now the charter members of the dark funk club. If you feel like you may indeed be in a dark funk for any reason, please let me know and I will induct you into the group.

I keep thinking to myself that this all has to end sometime...not that life is bad by any means, but sometimes you simply think that everything has to turn sometime and start going more your way. I guess that is when you live in the moment and hope that everything does not take another turn for the worse.

And I feel like I am getting a cold.

Now, at 9:13pm, I am going to bed.

I hope all of you are happy and healthy and flossing and not in a dark funk!
