Wow- what a looong weekend- which then landed me right onto a long Monday. I mean, I went to Waco, so that was fun, but driving in traffic, and shopping, while fun, can wear you out like nothing else.

So what is new in my life? Well, nothing really. Still struggling with school work out the wazoo- I had these papers to do and I just couldn't seem to get it together and finally I just buckled down and did it- you ever get that way, where you don't even care what the outcome is, you are just glad to get it over with? So many times I have not even re-read the final paper just because I knew I would see some gaping hole that I had overlooked and then I would spend another 3 hours butchering my paper until I didn't have a paper at all. That is the worst.

Last night I went to Chili's with Michelle, Matt, Josh Wiese, Erika Leo, a new guy named Jason, and Sara- it was a great time. I had a peppercorn burger and was quite disappointed in my stomach for not being able to consume the entire thing! I was soooo full. I hadn't eaten any lunch, and I had played Ultimate Frisbee and usually after that combo, I am ready for a combo meal- make it a Super Sized one, but yesterday my tummy let me down. Later it wanted some brownies, homeade or something, but I was like noooo, if you can't finish your dinner, then you aren't getting dessert!

Did I tell you that I was applying to work for Hallmark? The application is in the mail! Well, much to my chagrin I never finished the cover letter. I tried, and it always sounded sooo cheesy, so I said, shoot, if God wants me to have this job, then I don't even need this dumb cover letter- which I had printed out and was fixing to mail when I noticed a minor typo. Not to mention that I started the cover letter with a personal add- I mean get real. It read- Loves Music, Loves to Laugh. A partially borrowed line from a Mary Higgins Clark novel- Loves Music, Loves to Dance- which is also quite fitting, but I didn't want to totally plagiarize. So, here I am so totally over my job in Plano at the Texas Instruments- I mean, it is great and all, but the drive is killing me! 45 miles one way- yeah, not a typo- and it is not like I am making what I am worth- but no matter how much I make I know I will feel that way, cause I think I am worth about 76482.03 an hour- no, really, I do.

Ever been on a diet? Well, not everyone has, but I think most of America has at least heard of it- anyway, I like to try them all- Weight Watchers, Atkins, Jenny Craig, Sugar Busters, Bulemia, The Zone- I lose 15 pounds or so, just enough to start to tell I am losing weight, and then I am like- crap, I am sooo hungry, and I gorge myself to the point that I put that 15 pounds back on in 3 days- but heck, I am still young- I will give myself to the age of 30 to get down to 235 which is about 70 pounds- that is roughly 23.3 pounds a year-

okay- enough blabbing for now- I got to order a large pizza, I had a lean cuisine for lunch and now I am starving!!!
