Stressed out -

That's been this week. I've got a cranky boss who has been pressing all my buttons, an increasing workload, taxes due this week (and I always end up paying, that's why I wait to the last minute) and a very lean pay period. If I couldn't tell by my mood (which has been abysmal this week), I can certainly tell by the scale.

I'm supposed to be hovering right around my goal weight on maintenance - what I've done is continue to lose weight. You might think this is good - except I was the one who was 95 lbs at this height at one time.

Currently, I'm now at a new low, near 130 lbs. I should be about 135 - I have a Tanita digital scale, which can see changes of less than half a pound. While I was losing, I would jump on every day to check my work - and learned a lot that way.

I've already added the sake, ice cream and chocolate.

This is a whole lot more like my teens and twenties than I need the reminder for. Comparatively, this isn't a lot of weight (but I remember how long it took to get the last five pounds off while I was losing, and it seemed a whole lot longer than two weeks) - but it's another button getting pushed.

I have a weigh in on Sunday - we'll see if they have anything to say about it. I think it's also time I addressed some of the mood issues as well. There are things leftover from that botch of a therapy cycle DCFS made us do that need attention - now that all the paperwork is in, perhaps I could go get it taken care of on the quiet.

I'd like a weekend now, kplz thx bye whatever.

Again, because the cake is the best part -

Jim and I have often chatted redoing vows someday. Not a big wedding - well, nothing bigger than everyone come over for BBQ and taiko in our front yard, anyway - but just Doing It Again.

Weddings give me the willies. I'll get around to telling that story when I get a few more clock cycles to myself - but I will do it properly, or not at all. It's that important.

But - wouldn't it be fun if we took a few months some year, and went around the country getting remarried in every state - for example? A few countries around the world. Collect those marriage licenses like trading cards. That sort of thing.

He wanted to do the Elvis Chapel of Love in Vegas (does that even exist?) - weeeel.

They do weddings in Portland at Voodoo Donut - $175 to do the deed for you and 8 of your friends, family optional. If he gets the Elvis treatment, I wanna bacon maple bar. (It sounds like trouble. It likely is.)

What. Quit looking at me like that.
