I politely told her that I was good at disguising my "problem" areas, but that I am, in fact, 15 lbs down from my pre-pregnancy weight.

Then again, this is the same person who, a year after my wedding said, "I'm glad you put that weight you lost back on."

She's just special.

You've met her, too. You know just how special she is.

I was gonna ask, but I decided not to. Now I'm coming to find you on AIM.

Since this woman has not been struck by lightning or covered by boils, I'm beginning to wonder about the Empress's smiting abilities.

The update on my cat Ivan is that I will attempt to fast him. He looked at the eggs and at me and said, "no way." I think he ate some of my other cat's leftover kibble which he threw up. So, going to fast him 'til tomorrow night. Wish me strength.

strenght~ma, sumi.

How do I only have three pages of this paper? Who's staying up with me?? ;)

I'm up! I'm just...um....going to bed in just a minute.

Sorry.

I'm useless. Also, exhausted lately. Am hoping vacation (whoot!!) will help that. Three day weekend, plus I"m taking Tues/Wed off (though I'll probably leave Saturday afternoon and come home on Wednesday morning). Yay. I even got romance novels on clearance at the used bookstore, so I won't feel guilty reading them on the beach, as they only cost $1 or $2.

And I bought shoes. Because I neeeeeeeed them. Um. I promise to get rid of at least one pair, replacing them with the new ones? The other pair, well, I don't HAVE a cute navy pair, and I've been buying all these navy clothes, and the only navy shoes I have are flipflops, which aren't work-appropriate....so....

Sounds like an excellent day of shoe shopping!

vw - I'm up now but going to bed shortly. Lots of stay-up-ma and excellent paper-writingn skills-ma.

I'm up. I forgot to bring dinner so I'm having a turkey pot pie from the stash that my boss stowed in the freezer for just such an occasion.
