Another Quickie 2004-08-10, 12:40 a.m. - I am wearing a pair of shorts that I have not been able to fit into in TWO YEARS. I bought them on clearance hoping to fit into them last summer, when my ass was still too fat for them. THEY FIT. I may never take them off. - I am sleeping about five hours a night and am extraordinarily stressed since I have ZERO of my training presentations prepared and I have TWELVE left to do. Instead I have been drinking wine and assigning keys to freshmen, and becoming infamous for cursing the caps lock key in a drunk IM. (I'll let Kate post that - I'm too lazy to delete screen names.) - Look for some changes in the next month or so. The Gumboots is moving to a new URL, a new design, and a new content management system. It's like 2001 around here! WOOOOO! - I was offered a bacon cheeseburger or a salad for lunch, and I chose the salad. - I voluntarily ate a McChicken No Mayo at McDonald's tonight instead of a Double Cheeseburger, which is what I really wanted. - Then I came home and ate a Klondike bar, but GOD DAMN are those good. - I am BITTER that I cannot go to JCon this year. While they are all gone, I will write a funny entry about what would have gone down if I'd been there, and they will be SO SAD that I wasn't around. REAL TEARS will be cried, y'all. - Kate and I have the same spring break. We are debating between "Spring Break WOOOOO!" and a "Spring Vacation". Where should we go? It has to be somewhere where we can drink a lot and be hit on a lot and also sleep until 3 p.m. every day because we will be hung over a lot. - I got my first angry parent phone call today! It was exciting. - I am on a quest to bake the perfect Brie ever since I had some with honey and almonds and some other stuff at a Fancy Place a few weeks ago. I have never baked Brie in my life, and I live in fear of fucking up an expensive hunk of cheese, but I want to learn how to make elegant appetizers. - I have to bring a dessert to serve 18 people (two batches of one thing is fine) to a potluck dinner on Thursday. I was thinking of making a Heath Bar cake (the kind where you poke holes in it and drizzle caramel and sweetened condensed milk in it, ice with Cool Whip and top with busted-up Heath bars) or something easier. Help, y'all. Please recommend something that is Not Pie. I fucking hate pie (chocolate, peach, and pecan are acceptable), and no, I am not a pinko Commie. - Why are all the Rams games sold out? The Rams sort of suck lately. I want to buy tickets for any home game, and I am being shut down right and left. Fucking Rams. - It's probably best that I don't get any Rams tickets because I'd end up going with T and that would require spending a weekend with him in a hotel. Clearly, not a good idea. - I have been e-mailing with a wicked funny, hopefully cute Match guy who is awesome, clever, and seems very interested in what I want. I feel sexier knowing this. - I have to buy new bras because mine are too big in the band (but my cup still floweth over, which sucks. I love the weight loss that is apparently happening, but can my boobs please get smaller? Thanks.) which is a good feeling. I love shopping, and I'm getting smaller! - I really need to buy a damn scale so I can assess the progress here. It's kind of fun not knowing the Magic Number but instead knowing that something good is happening to me. - Y'all have a good week - I may not be able to update for a while since Move In Day is coming so soon. I will unashamedly beg for e-mail, though. |
