I’ve always told people they should marry for love and never for money. Who am I to pass judgement?

I am eating how much? January 6, 2009
According to this handy tool on Glamour.com I am eating 2242 calories a day! Holy hell I didn’t even realize it! I mean I do a lot of running so I am hungry a lot. I guess I am not burning as much as I thought. The first step is to knock out 250 calories a day. That is simple. A pudding cup, bowl of soup, a fiber one bar lol.

Is this a bitch fest? December 18, 2008
Everyday I just get more and more irritated. Gina swears my big break is coming soon.
I’ve been healthy for 2 weeks now, and haven’t fell down the steps December 15, 2008
I am super stoked that I’ve made it a week without busting my ass down the steps. I can’t believe how often I do it. My cats are conspiring against me. Secretly they plot my death. Because of my fall last Monday, I took it easy on the workouts. I didn’t run all week and I know my fat ass will be paying for it tonight. The plan for tonight is run 2 miles and pilates.
So I sit here at my desk during my lunch 45 minutes. I’d say hour but that would be a lie. I’m thinking what else can happen to my life. Then I think of the last year past. It was about this time last year that I interviewed and got this job. And progressively it’s gotten worse. So bad I’m forced to take a $10,000 per year pay cut. So bad that my boss tells me one thing and really means another. So irritating that my boss thinks I am unmotivated. Well if I wasn’t before, I am now. About $10,000 less motivated. He tells me to do somthing. I do it. Then….it’s just not exactly what he wants. But it doesn’t matter. He is the type of person where he is never happy. He is happy being the boss and owning his own company. It boosts up his ego. Sexism is his masterpiece. As well as undercutting exempt employees. After I am out of here I might take this to the DLLR. Just to prove a point to him.
Housecleaning October 18, 2008
So for my 2 readers out there I wanted to point out I did some housecleaning. I have a new theme, but I also consolidated all of my blogs from MySpace and Livejournal to this one. Now I have everything in one neat package! I haven’t had breakfast yet, but I am eying up that fat free eggo in my freezer. Today I will be running. Period. Just a mile. It’s more of a scientific experiment. I never paid attention to how long it takes me to run a mile. Anything I say is really a guess based on how long it took me to do whatever in 3 miles. Basically this experiment is to just get my time. I have good songs to do it. I’m going to the college track instead of my former high school to avoid any humiliation from 15 year olds. But I may have to settle for what I can get depending on if there are football games scheduled.
Thank you to my readers. Go ahead and browse. There is always talk of food and exercising, but lots of fun pieces of my life. If you go through 2005 you will read about wedding planning and things involved there.
Enjoy!
Dusting off the cobwebs on my blog October 17, 2008
To Trainer Erik,
I figured this would be the best way to keep you updated on my life, exercise, and food via an online diary or blog. I put this blog to bed after a failed try and some boredom, but I’ve read that if you write out your goals and successes no matter how small you will have a better outcome. So I’ll start off everyday with what I ate and any activity. There will be daily updates but the posts may be edited several times a day to recap anything. I hope this works for you!
Food:
- 1 blueberry doughnut
- 1 cup of egg beaters
- 2 hard boiled eggs
- 1 lean pocket
- Del Monte Fruit Chiller
- About 30 pumpkin seeds (from my pumpkins I carved last night)
- Leftover baked chicken
- 2 fat free turkey dogs
Ok so no exercise today because I had a million things to do. I am running the track tomorrow
Meet the newest member of our family September 4, 2008
This is Audrey.

We finally decided to get another kitty for Scotty since his passed away. We found Audrey on the Anne Arundel County SPCA website. She is really loving her new home. Audrey was sent back to the SPCA 2 times! I don’t know why because she is a sweetie. She is the only one of the kitties who lets me even brush her without a fight. She is gentle and yes a tortoiseshell cat like Bastice was only….. she is not mean. Audrey has a lot of the same facial expressions Bastice did and she acts very much like a tortoiseshell cat, but she has been so well socialized through the shelter and her former owners which gives her a great personality. We’ve only had her a few weeks, but we are in love! We wanted to adopt a cat that really deserved the attention we give our pets. Audrey was it. Not only was she a tortoiseshell (which we were specifically looking for) but she had been in the shelter since May. I felt so bad that she had to stay in that little cage for almost 5 months that she instantly was the one for us. Please welcome Audrey the next time you are at our house. (ps yes I know she looks almost exactly like Bastice, only Audrey has a little brown paw that I call her Michael Jackson glove lol)
