Hey, its been awhile and I figured I throw a post up so people still know I'm alive.
No really, I just got back on my blog because my Father told me he found it and read it so I had to make sure nothing bad was on here. Lets just say I certainly didn't plan on family members to be reading this..eep!
And I figured I'd update everyone on the life that is mine.
So since the last post I am still working on forgiving my Mother since I really feel it is mostly her fault. I really miss her though and it tears my heart apart being away from her at a time like this. Many mixed emotions regarding the matter and they still bring tears, but less often now. I wrote her a letter in November but never got one back. I was hoping for some answers or just acknowledgment of how I'm feeling. Oh well, she has my address and my number.
Regarding work, yep you guessed it, IM STILL A F@CKING BAKER!!!! But in February I'm going to Tuscan to do an opening for Cheesecake Factory and Im really excited about that. I get paid overtime and get free food and room and board in these furnished apartments. They cover the traveling expenses too. Im just glad to go somewhere else for a change. The travel bug is itching.
Im losing weight. I went from 120 to 112. Pretty happy about that, especially since I didnt change a thing that I can think of. Im still effing poor so I eat whatever I can get my hands on. Im still a lazy fuck when Im not at work. I sit on the couch or in front of my computer all day if I'm not sleeping.
Well thats what I was doing until like a couple weeks ago.
My best friend Darlene and I have always talked about running a marathon and she called me and informed me that this year(2010) is the year that we will be running one. So I started running every other day...well I TRY to run every other day. I only run for twenty minutes usually though.
My roommates (who run/exercise everyday) are quite stunned at this. They probably think my more productive and motivated twin moved in and I just sank between the couch cushions or maybe that I'm forever laying on my futon under the blankets since my back has become so ruined from it that I can no longer get off of it.
I went running with Manny (my roomie) last Saturday and it was incredible. We (his brother in-law Nick also ran with us) ran two miles along the beautiful coast. But of course, after our run and a huge delicious breakfast cooked by the amazing chef Manny, I slept for like 3 hours on the couch. In my defense though, I DID get home @ 2:30, went to bed at 3am then was awoken @ 7:30am by Nick pounding on the front door to go running. And while rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I agreed to go on the early morning run. It felt good to run though. The view contributed to it a great deal as you can imagine.
Speaking of which, I LOVE LOVE living where I am now. My roommates are truly the coolest. The house is awesome and the location is soooo nice! Library and Beach, two beautiful combinations are right next door to me. Ahhh, life is good!
While I was reading through my previous blogs I saw all the ones where I promised to write in my blog everyday. HA!
Yeah, of course I couldn't keep that promise simply because its ridiculous and because my day to day life (right now at least) isn't nearly interesting enough to write daily blogs about. They would be filled with much complaining and griping, just like all the other ones I write, only EVERYDAY! How incredibly boring.
Back to life, the most exciting thing Im looking forward to is LAVA HOT SPRINGS, IDAHO! So stoked!
Every year for the last 6 or 7 years (only the last three for my though) a group of my friends go up to Lava to soak in the natural hot springs and get stupidly drunk. Its a blast. We rent out two houses and get our own private pool and then cram 20 to 40 people in them and the party begins :)
We have a smaller more select group of friends going this year and Im really looking forward to hanging out with everyone.
The only downside is the $350 it takes out of my pocket. Oh well, flying sure sounds less painful than the approx 16 hour drive it would take in the snow and rain.
On a parting note, go listen to Owl City. Listen to If My Heart Was A House (track 14)its so sweet and romantic in such a perfect way. *sigh*
May 2, 2010 Darlene and I ran our first race ever! It was a 10K for the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation. It was a lot of fun, there were Mariachi Bands playing along the way, people dressed in traditional Mexican attire were holding out cups of water and Gatorade and cheering the runners on every couple miles. The weather was nice and overcast, perfect for running, and at the end we got a medal for completing the race. There were booths and booths of free goodies for the runners. Darlene and Cathy stockpiled on all the energy drinks, protein drinks and all the goodies they could fit in their bags while I simply just stuffed my face with as much food as I could.
Virginia came down with Darlene and we had a fun girls weekend...well it would have been a girls weekend had our brothers Danny and Jonny not been there the whole time. But it was fun nonetheless!
