headache

I have the worst headache known to man right now. Women can relate, especially if you get headaches instead of cramps during that time of month. I thought that some sugar-free mint milanos would help, but no it doesn't.

And my dumbass left my Midol at home.

Weekend's here in 2 hours though! Hurry up, weekend! I'm dying over here!

Wednesday = Thursday

So that means tomorrow = Friday. Yippee!

Who knew that a spider roll and edamame can make you full (and fuckin' be damn expensive too)?

Hey, that kinda rhymed...no wait...it didn't.

I thought I was a poet and didn't even know it.

Now that rhymed!

I'm such a lame ass.

pee-pee dance

Drinking a gallon of water a day causes you visit the facilities 5+ times a day.

Byron and I had really bad gas last night and we had to leave the window open for circulation's sake.

I realize that the last sentence was TMI, but ask me if I care.

I have been displaced from my work area into a vacant office because my boss' sister-in-law is doing work there. I'm kinda really liking having my own office, so it's gonna suck when she doesn't come in anymore.

I had a opportunity for Free Lunch Monday today, but I already ate my salad. Good thing I have Friday off now because now I don't feel so jipped.

Who the hell made up the word "jipped" anyway? Maybe the same person that made up "moded?" I'd like to meet that guy.

CONGRATS TO MIAH ON HIS NEW JOB! (will you come visit me now?)

strength, courage and wisdom

Last week I found out that my aunt has stage 2 breast cancer. It made me realize that we are not invincible and nothing lasts forever. I'm having a hard time with how close it is to me. I mean, I know that cancer runs in the family, but I didn't know how close it was. I'm buying those pink bracelets and giving one to every female member in my family. Sometimes we just need to be reminded.

On another not-so-related-but-kinda subject, I had a dream last night where I was breast feeding my child. Weird.

summertime

7 reasons why driving a black car sucks

1. It gets hella hot in Walnut Creek...and I work there.
2. Sure, it's sexy after it's washed, but 1 day later...it looks dirty again.
3. People always ask you why you got a black car because of reason #1.
4. Not very visible in the dark = hit and run.
5. People make fun of the fact that it has a dark interior as well.
6. Nobody likes to ride in it especially after reason #1.
7. It attracts mosquitos for some reason.

fat ass

I worked out but once this past week. Dammit. Hardcore this week though...Hardcore

I hate getting the sad face from my mom. It is so easy to make me feel guilty. I really wish she didn't know that.

Why do moms make comments about weight loss, then hella feed you afterwards? What kind of message is that? Do you want me to be fat or not?

I can't believe Liza is getting married! Yay engagements!

Man. I'm broke as a joke until the 1st of the month. And that stupid Bone Thugs song keeps playin' in my head. Sucks.

I got a case of the Mondays.

incomplete

I am bored as all hell today at work, so what do I do? Browse xangas of course! I came upon some for some of my sisters who were freshman when I was in my last quarter in school. It got me thinking about 2 things 1) how effin' old I am now and 2) the list of things that I was supposed to do before I left SB. Let's take a gander at that list shall we?

1. Go fishing in the reflecting pool at Storke Tower
2. Light my cigarette on the Eternal Flame
3. Watch the sun come up from the RBR
4. Drive Lucky through campus
5. Get drunk at Chilito's at the UCen during school hours
6. Throw a slammin' apartment party
7. Have sex somewhere on campus, excluding on-campus dorm rooms

I was able to complete 3 of the seven aformentioned. Which 3 I'll leave to your imagination *evil laugh* Happy Friday Everyone!

truth is...

12 honest answers to questions that you don't want honestly answered:

1. No, your child scares the bejezzus out of me.
2. The jeans don't make your butt look big, your butt does.
3. That make-up looks like you put it on using your toes or something.
4. You're not thick, you're FAT.
5. I'll tell you what I told my dog when he wanted to become a cat: IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.
6. You're right. It is you.
7. I don't like hanging out with you, so the answer is no.
8. You are turning into your mother.
9. Please don't bother me with your stupid problems.
10. That color looks awful on you, Kool-Aid.
11. Just put a bag over your head and everything will be okay.
12. Your name and face do not ring a bell...at all.

"I'm so happy for you..."

People say it all the time...but do they really mean it?

I know that I've said this to some people at one point in my life and it kinda makes me wonder about the people that don't say it. I heard that if you love someone, you're happy for them whatever they decide to do with their lives. So does that mean that the people that aren't happy for you, never loved you?

day, be over already!

I just want a huge bag of Jalapeno Potato Chips.

I hate being on the Pill.

when the cat's away...

Damn Skippy the mice will play! My boss is out of the office until 3pm. Woo hoo!

Byron made some fried rice last night. Yummy. Babe, if you're reading this...GOOD JOB!

I think it's funny that I love dogs even though I'm allergic to them. It's kind of ironic.

Hace mucho calor lately...too bad it's scheduled to rain this weekend.

POLL: If you and your husband's relative had the same first and middle name, would you take his last name? Would you trip about not being the only person in the family to have that name?

BWAHAHAHAHAHA

Toxic by Britney Spears

"It's getting late To give you up I took a sip From my devil cup Slowly It's taking over me " Ah, what's a year without breaking a few hearts? Literally.

What 2004 Hit Song Are You?

you don't make friends with salad

I bought an Italian blend of lettuce for salad. To my pleasant surprise, it tasted better with my Italian dressing. Go figure.

I wonder how long I can keep this weight loss stuff up. All I did this weekend was sit in an audience (CSUHEB Commencement & Rianna's dance recital) and eat afterwards (Buffet and Chili's).

I'm tired of my love/hate relationship with food. It's very stressful.

Congrats to the grads! The real world sucks! You're gonna love it!

chaotic

Has anyone seen this show? Britney and Kevin are so white trash...it's not even funny. I was watching the whole time thinking are they for real? Britney's kind of a slut. The previews for next week are of their wedding...and guess who's TiVoing that shit.

Yup, I'm a sucker for celebrity reality shows or any reality show for that matter.

Oh Mother Nature

Last time I checked a calendar, I saw that it was June. What the hell...rain? Oh Mother Nature, why must you fuck with us so? Is it that time of month? Because if it is I totally understand...

I hate being left alone on a Tuesday night. I also don't like being yelled at (well, more of a "I'm worried about you" yell than a "Die bitch, die!" kind of yell) while half asleep. I'm not mad, I just don't have anything to say... That's on the real tho.

I gave in a bought some stuff online. Hopefully, I'll get it on Friday. We'll see though. I still do not know what to wear this Saturday. What the hell man, it's not like a formal event or anything...why am I being so indecisive? But I tried on some dresses that I haven't worn since the summer before my last year in college...and they fit! Woo hoo me!

Yogurt is delicious twice a day. Oatmeal ain't that bad either. According to my sister, "It makes you HELLA regular." Damn skippy!

Mountain House = 3 cars, 2 drivers
Union City = 3 cars, 5 drivers
My Lucky will be on loan to my sister while her car's in the shop. Sigh...I don't like automatic in traffic. I will miss you Lucky.

The crap I don't talk about on here anymore Enjoy!

Happy Hump Day everyone!

blast from the past

My lil sis emailed me today and put some pictures in it that brought a smile to my face:

This brought back A LOT of memories, half of which I'm not at liberty to speak of, but let's just say that what goes on in SB, stays in SB.

She also sent me a pic of my cute family:

I wish I was there for installs, but time and money didn't allow.

What's up with all this nostalgia man...it's been like 4 years since I graduated! But look at me now...living in my own home and engaged. I never thought it would be like this.

and...end scene.

I've been super moody over the past couple of days. I won't say that I don't know why because I do and Byron got the brunt end of it since he lives with me. Poor guy.

I've had much on my mind lately and don't really know how to sort it all out. I feel like I'm trying to please everyone else except for myself, which is never good, but only I gotta deal with it right? I've been slacking on my diet and hopefully I can get back on track this week.

Commencement this weekend...woohoo. It's always this time of year that reminds me that I'm an "adult" now.

busted

My oh-so-sweet fiance decided to wash and vaccum my car two days ago...and he found my pack of cigarettes in the center console. I know how he feels about that kind of stuff, so I felt really bad when he approached me about it. I don't know why I got back into the habit again...he kept asking me why and I'd simply say "I don't know."

So I got to thinking, it was a comfort for me back then...then I turned to food...and with all my weight-loss efforts, I've reverted back to my old comfort. It's really sad when I think about it. I don't know why I smoke, I don't know why I started in the first place, and I don't know why I'm not committed to quitting.

In other news, I did start a wedding xanga...if you'd like the link, let me know.

Have a super fantastic weekend everyone!

in my head

I recently was suckered into join BMG, which is cool because I get CDs that I've been meaning to get. I just never got around to getting them. The things you'd do for a free mini-IPod, which I don't even really think I'm going to get. Oh well.

Because I have this new collection of CDs, I know have music constantly playing in my head. Here's my "grab bag" of lyric snippets for today:

"I believe in the stars across the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
You see, I've waited all my life
For this moment to arrive
And finally...I believe"

"She was a disco light on a Friday night
She moves across the floor
She's oh so tight like dynamite
Blowin' me up with her love."

"You know you did it...I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn"

I'm such a pop-tart.
