When Your Boyfriend Farts So Loud It Scares You

The title has nothing to do with the post but I thought it was funny. 

Today sucked. Some asshole cop gave me a 300 ticket  (my first ever in my life mind you) stating  "you were behind me, and I was going 58, and tried to pass me, a cop, on the right hand side going 70 in a 55" 

False sir! I was NEVER behind you and never moved into the right lane! I was in the center right hand lane and changing lanes using my blinker to get in to the center left hand (next to him as he was in the far left lane) and I was only going 62 which in my opinion is an acceptable *passing* speed!  It was after the fact that he then decided to get behind me, follow me for a like 1/4 of a mile and then pull me over and act like an asshole about it. 

This is definitely a first world problem and probably a white people problem as well but regardless it doesn’t change the fact that this was just one more thing for my system to feel upset about. How are we going to afford that? Why is that fair? Other questions that feed into castrophizing. Combine that with all of the stress from this weekend and it was just not a great day.

So I cried for a collective two hours at work, got an ER, picked up ice cream from twisty treat on the way home, and then ordered MoviePass because why the hell not.

In the beginning...

I started a project. It came to me one day while I was looking over all the things I needed to accomplish. Go to the gym. Eat better. Organize. Look at the car.  The list was becoming endless. I thought back to some other times when I felt like I had to juggle a ton of things and writing as something that was there to help.  I turn 25 this year. Apparently this is a big deal? Something about a quarter of a century? Becoming mature? It's going to happen; going to happen very soon actually (like as I post this). So let me introduce you, whoever that might be, to Twenty Five for Twenty Six.  Here I'm going to attempt to complete 25 goals by the time I turn 26. I have a year. One full year; 365 days to complete a set of tasks. Have I completely decide what those twenty five things are? No. I'm going to give myself a little time to figure those out. I know I need to work on losing 25 pounds but the rest of the goals are kind of up in the air!  I also want ...

These Are Not Joanna Eggs!

If you don't know who Joanna is, please see above. She's a Goanna (reptilian creature who crawls on all fours and eat eggs and things) who is a minor character in "The Rescuers Down Under."  The reason she is featured in today's post is because the theme song for that Disney movie has been playing all day at work as part of the fountain show. I heard it mid afternoon and immediately recognized it. I even said to myself "Well now I have to watch The Rescuers Down Under." And here I am doing just that as we wind down for the night.  Water intake was good today and food was decent. So far breakfast has been the low calorie density meal and based on the scale, I have lost three more pounds. But we shall see. Tomorrow is supposed to be a WellDressedWednesday.

Seeing and Believing

With all the weddings I’ve gone to in the last 5 months, I’ve been in a few pictures. I saw one of me that was posted recently and I wanted to cry. I swiped through the pictures and just got more and more in disbelief, mentally asking “Is that really me? Is that what I look like from behind?” I stared at them until I couldn’t any more and immediately had to go do something else. I looked like such a different person than what I thought I looked like. My mental picture and reality are just sooooo far off and it was jolting to see it. I don’t want to look that way. I haven’t struggled with body image very much. If anything I’ve always thought I was smaller than I am. But I’m much bigger than I want to realize and I need to cut it out now before it becomes an even bigger issue. I know all of this.  And here I am having finished a small KFC meal and still hungry as I write this. I have so little self control with food. I eat when I stressed, bored, hungry, sad, because it’s t...
