Tonight!

Well I guess it's a brand new day after all
Every time we hear the curtain call

Yes, tonight is the New Kids on the Concert. I am way freekin' excited. I have been listening to my greatest hits cd and feeling nostalgic. I so remember why I hearted New Kids. The music, while very cheesy, is excellent. I still love every song. And I still love Joey McIntyre. I feel so junior high, but I've been waiting for this night since we first started talking about buying the tickets in March. They want on sale in June, so I have known I'm going for 5 months! That's almost half a year. It better be worth the wait.

I'm still trying to decide what to wear. This shouldn't be such a hard decision. I'm also debating about leaving work early. But I have tomorrow off so I have to get some work done. Not much being done today, just listening to my nkotb cd.

Ok- work to do so I can leave on time!

Sundae???

I'm really feeling like I'd like some ice cream. It is 9:00 on a Sunday morning, I haven't had breakfast, and I'm sitting around in a bathrobe and slipper socks. And all I can think about is ice cream. Maybe I should have some real food first. I think for breakfast today I will have my very last Nutrisystem blueberry panacke (package says makes 2-3, yeah, right!) topped with fresh strawberries and banana. And maybe some milk.

I made chili yesterday. MissZalyssa said it was the best chili she's ever had. But she wasn't sure if it was because the chili was super good or because it was the first time that she had chili topped with sour cream. She loves sour cream. I thought the chili was most excellent. I am a very good chili-cooker-person.

I got an invitation to a Halloween party at the heating and cooling fixing place that I have on retainer. MissZalyssa was reading the invitation and then she said "OMG, that is so gross". OK, what's so gross? "They are eating a horse". Now, I had already read the invitation and don't remember reading that. So I asked her what she was talking about. "They are serving horse devours. What are horse devours". So I think for a second. And then another second. Then I crack up. I mean I really crack up, the kind of laughing that makes tears run down your face and you get out of breath. Then I explained that they are having hors d'oeuvres. So then she asked why it's spelled like "horse devours". And for once when I said "it's French" I was actually correct.

I am on level 137 on Mobsters. That makes me feel sad about all the hours I've wasted playing that stupid game. It is so flipping pointless. And it's the same thing over and over. Fight some mobsters, do one of 3 missions, buy a property, do missions again, buy a massive missle thingy. Repeat. Reapeat. Repeat. It's getting kind of boring.

Ok, I'm going to go make those pancakes (right after I fight a couple mobsters).

...or not.

Wow, it's been awhile. I'm a bad-blogger-keeper-upper. But since very few people read this anyway, does it even matter?

Weight Watchers update- Last Saturday I got my 25 pound award. This Saturday I will be returning it since I am certain I have gained at least 25 pounds this week. A donut, 3 pieces of pizza, 5 pieces of licorice, 3 (or 4 or 5) mini candy bars, lots and lots and lots of applecrisp. It's been a bad week. But I am accepting responsibility for my errors in judgement and am moving on.

I really, really, really wish that George Michaal wasn't such a freakazoid, because I am listening to my The Best of George Michael 2 disc set, and I love him, the songs, his voice. So why does he have to break the law so much??? I think that Father Figure may be on my top ten all time favorite song list. That list has been in the works for months. When I started the list, there were about 100 songs on it. I'm trying to get it down to 10. Anyhow, I really like Father Figure, and I think it may be the sexiest, romanticist, tragicist, lovelyist, dramaticist, beautifulist song ever. Or it could be perverted and about child molestation. I'm going with option A and to the critics, I say take the song at face value and don't over-think it. I'm going with the crime part referencing homesexuality (not an illegal type of crime, but one that some people may see as a moral crime) and the tiny hands signifying that the singer is stronger than the person he is singing to (therefore, he is not singing to a child). Why do people have to try to turn something beautiful and innocent into something creepy? I heart George Michael.

The biggest problem I am having with the list of my favorite songs is that I really love so many songs. How do I choose just one song from Madonna or Elton John? Impossible. So I left Madonna off the list and went with The One by Elton. It is the second most sexiest, romanticist, tragicist, lovelyist, dramaticist, beautifulist song ever. My goal is to finish the list sometime this year.

I'm cranky. I am having lots of people-relating issues.

I'm having an issue with someone that is suffering from an overinflated self-image. People that think they are more important then they actually are really bug me. I'm not going to name names or give details.

There are 2 people that are being rather negative towards my weight loss success. They are purposely trying to sabatoge me and they constantly ridicule my healthy food choices. They tell me that I exercise too much and that they don't have time to exercise. Then they complain that they can't lose weight. Then they shove a donut into their mouth. Then they repeat the entire process, but this time they add that it's unfair that I have lost weight when they haven't. Then they have fast food for lunch. Then ice cream for lunch-dessert. Then they repeat that they can't lose weight. Ugh!

Ok, time to go home.....
