Yuck...

Well then. I've discovered an irrefutable (well at least for me) fact: Yoplait yogurt whips are the most disgusting things. Evar. The texture. Oh, gods, the texture... Blech! Good thing I only picked a couple of that kind in the 10 for $4 I got during that last sale...

Shudder....

Hey, I tried!

I'm in the process of trying to get up earlier in preparation for the new job. I set the scary ass shrieking loud alarm for 8:30 and the kinder, gentler alarm for 9. I actually got up right before 10. Yeah, I'm the snooze alarm whore.;) Hell, at least I got up before the crack of noon, lol. Well I had to do that--I have an appointment at noon! Anyway, my first day at this wasn't too painful.;)

Oy...

Yep, I'm a posting whore this morning. What can ya do?

Anyway.

I had to squeeze--yes SQUEEZE!!!!!--into my freshly washed size 12 jeans this morning. Ugh. Not.A.Good.Thing. Particularly since I'll be seeing my man next week! Ack! I could rationalize it by chalking it up to my Monthly Sentence being about to be punctuated, but I know that's totally a rationalization. And me with no gym membership right now! Well, mom DOES have that stationary bike at her house. And I've got that yoga tape I've been meaning to try since I bought it...shit...that long ago?!?! Damn. Time to get back to work on the old bod...And, no, I'm NOT going to follow Kirstie Alley's advice and call Jenny Craig--I'm not chubby--I'm BIG BONED! No, wait. I'm FLUFFY! Yeah. That's it.

Fuckit. I guess this means no more bacon for meee....Feh.
