Back By Popular Demand

In my defense, I tried to make an entry last night whilst I was hacking the wireless network at school, but my computer ran out of juice.

Tuesday: So my new diet is not good for Yoga. I have been eating really small portions recently, the Healthy Choice/Smart Ones/Lean Cuisine frozen meals and a dressingless salad is all I have for lunch and dinner. Of course this is simply not enough food fuel for the demanding Yoga that I do and I actually stopped in the middle of the standing poses, lay down, and PASSED OUT!! So there I am sleeping, snoring, drooling, twitching with a rag on my head and I twitch so hard it jolts me out of sleep. I pull the rag off my head stretching and yawning like "Whoo! I'm TIRED!" meanwhile me fellow Yogis are contorted and working HARD. I'm a loser!!! So I didn't even make it to belly dance, I went to Noodles and f*cked it up! Ate, napped, got up and talked to Dane and felt guilty about my sorry performance.

Wednesday: Hard day at work, let's just say it has to do with managers, variance reports, and meaningless, pointless accusations. Ugh. Went home and met with Joe A. to fix the Montero. The Monty was on it's best behavior, bitch. It's all "What?! I'm a good lil car." LIAR!!!!! It did, however, die at every stop. Something with the idle I guess. Joe fiddled with the snap ring and I will test drive it this weekend. He stayed for a moment and we talked - he's WAY effing cool!! Very much "my type" of guy. *wink* Then Rhi got me a Starbucks latte so I could stay up and finish my homework, which I got 1/3 done.

Thursday: Even harder day at work, but I expelled all the negativity. My time in CO is short, I don't have time for bitterness. I also got word that Seattle UOP rejected my transfer. It's just minor financial formalities and as my counselors said "Crystal - you gave us 5 months advance notice - I'm sure we can take care of anything and everything that might be a problem in 5 months." They are so awesome for putting up with me. I had such a day at work that I got a Starbucks for the cold, wet, snowy drive home - it's almost May people!! Meanwhile in Seattle, it's blue skies and in the high 60's! Dane is moping because he doesn't have his bike. I talked to him for a while, he went to LR's Burlesque show last night, I can't wait to hear about it. I even sat in my car in the parking lot and lay back and listened to relaxing music and took some deep breaths to prepare myself for school. I went to Panera and was dead set on broccoli and cheese soup, but then they had wild mushroom bisque!!! It is the BEST!! And it's vegetarian *wink*. School was fun, I was on the net half the time courtesy of UOP's wireless network. Then my computer died, unbeknownst to me laptops have a 2.5 - 3 hour battery life. I thought it would be more. Nope. Shoulda brought my power.

Today: At work, working at about 25%. Hey, it's cold and wet and gloomy! I am excited to go to HOK with Amy tonight and then see what happens from there - I'm up for anything. I've conned Rhi into being our DD.

So that's the latest, there will be more on thoughts/feelings and all that touchy stuff later.

Hopefully the Montero will be all ok for Moab. I am so looking forward to it now. I need to find a hard hat. Wonder how we will top the Thelma and Louise cliff???

What if that were not so? If herbal life weight loss product were not really as you describe - where would that leave us do you think? Considering all you've said in Back By Popular Demand

For the same reason, cravings and yo-yo dieting will never be completely clear-cut. I don't think, anyway. But posts like Back By Popular Demand at least give a different view and make you think about it - maybe even for the first time.
