February 08, 2005 ( Tuesday, February 08, 2005 ) Don't you hate it when you have a really good topic to post and then you forget? Yesterday I had something that I was going to write about but I can't remember what it was. Hmmm. So the diet/workout thing is working. In 7 days I've lost about 5 pounds and gained a bit of muscle. It's crazy though since we're supposed to be drinking like 4000 (i'm not joking) ml of water. I spend half the day peeing (the other half drinking water). I feel a lot healthier, more energetic, just better in general. Although the last few nights I haven't been sleeping. I'll lay awake until like 2 or 3 in the morning. Craziness. I'm a little angry about a supposed job oppurtunity. A few weeks ago I was told to send in a resume for a job that would pay about $18/hour so I did...and nothing. No response. Then a few days ago I read a job posting in the paper for the same company. I don't get it. I've worked for them before, I've sent in resumes every time they've told me, and nothing. *rage* The vegetarian thing is going along good. Although, I wouldn't recommend being a vegetarian to anyone who couldn't take constant criticism. I mean, it gets to the point where making fun of me because I don't eat meat, isn't really funny. I know that some people don't understand why, or don't think it's such a big deal, but still...leave me alone about it. I've been thinking a lot lately since I've moved out, about my family. I really honestly couldn't ask for better parents. I know that everyone says that you really only appreciate them until you've moved out, and I think it's true. I respect them so much for everything. For being so welcoming of Scott and I, for not just giving up hope because their son isn't straight. Not that I ever expected my parents to just throw me aside, but Scott and I are both so lucky and so blessed that my parents have such unconditional love and respect. At christmas especially, I saw such an amazing family. A strong family that may not be what some picture to be the model family, but it's strong, and everyone is loved and has their own place in the family. My parents and brothers could have so easily disowned me, ignored me, not want to see me anymore. I know that they were uncomfortable at first, but now...I don't know if they even see negative things about Scott and I. I wouldn't trade my family in for the world. Aaaaaand, on a different note, an article that I wrote about Geocaching was featured (on the front page and everything!) in the new issue of Scratch Magazine. They paid a cool $45 for this article! woot! If you don't have access to the magazine, download the .pdf version here http://www.scratchonline.ca/magazine.php (page 23). Enjoy! Now I'm off to eat my 400 calorie breakfast....mmm...calories |
