Monday Musings

• It's been a while. For that I apologize.
• Larry Munson, voice of the DAWGS, passed away from complications with Pneumonia. It's a sad day in the bulldog nation. I'm going to spend the day listening to his playcalling. You can read his favorite calls here.
• Software testing is the PITS. Nothing works and it is a lot of fucking work that takes away from doing your actual job. I can't recruit if I'm over here trying to figure out what the fuck is going on with our applicant tracking system in time for the rollout.
• The other day in the middle of the day a guy showed up and knocked on my door. I answered it. He said he had the wrong address and walked away. I just got an email from my landlord that the guy was there to move my shit out because he had been given the wrong address and thought the condo was under foreclosure. She had to assure me that her payments on the condo are up to date and I am not going anywhere. Imagine if I hadn't been home. I'd have come home to nothing in my condo and thought I'd been robbed. That is a scary thought.
• I have so much to do before the holiday. Like unpacking from the weekend and repacking for 5 days. And cleaning my apartment in case someone comes to move me out so they think I am not a slob.
• What the fuck is with people updating their fb statuses to tell me what they are thankful for? Look I don't give a shit. 90% of it is stupid shit. 5% doesn't make sense to anyone but you and your besties. 5% of it is valid. Therefore, I now think you are a vain and shallow person with no clue about the world around you. If that is what you are going for then CONGRATS! GREAT SUCCESS!
• This weekend I took my mom to the UGA football game. We played Kentucky and clinched the SEC East. Awesome right?  Except in the span of 5 minutes, I broke my new iPhone and she lost her new iPhone. Like mother, like daughter, eh? No one should be surprised by me but everyone will be shocked by my mom. That is the last time I take her to a college football game.
• I really wonder what some people do all damn day that they can send me 800+ emails when I have already said I will get the information to them when I get a chance. CHILL THE FUCK OUT MY DAMN OUT OF OFFICE IS ON.
• The only way for me to lose weight is to constantly eat the same damn thing. Every day. I am so bored. Then I flip out from boredom, go to Arbys and order the entire menu and weigh 10 lbs more than I did when I started. WTF IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!
• Apparently the entire damn company is on vacation this week. Makes my job a little more difficult.
• Dear everyone, I think I am done with weddings after next year. DONE.
• Why the fuck am I watching Knight and Day? I cannot stand Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz is alternately the most annoying fucking actress ever and a slightly tolerable one.
• Why do people try to schedule conference calls for the very next day? I don't know about them but I have a damn job and I'm doing it. Why are people so surprised when I'm unable to speak due to my schedule?

Thanksgiving Break Day 4

Whatever weight I lost yesterday over the course of the day I gained right back with a 1/2 a pie of pepperoni and jalepeno pizza. Damn. Going for a run. Hopefully, I don't blow it today at the tailgate!

Thanksgiving Break Day 3

So my sister and I went to Black Friday at 12 am at Discover Mills. We wandered the mall area and did two laps so there was some post Turkey Dinner exercise. I negated it by ordering Wetzel's Pretzels while we waited for the awards to be posted. Of course, I didn't win a damn thing so that was a bummer.

This morning I woke up and made myself an omelet with pork roll (or Taylor ham. probably in the south you have no idea what the hell I'm talking about) and an everything bagel. Then my sister, my mom and I hit the avenue and wandered- see more exercise! Bought some clothing and was super excited when I got myself a Christmas dress...dunh, dunh, dunh...in size 10! Whoo, down from size 12!

I just finished up lifting weights and riding the exercise bike for an hour. Decided to stay in since I have a race in the morning. logged on to find out how to get my race bib. Apparently, this is one of those ECORACES. AKA, no fun. I do not think I want to drag my ass out of bed for a race at 8 am in downtown Atlanta the day of the UGA-GA Tech game. So I am going to just run some mileage tomorrow morning here in Lawrenceville. Bummer. What a let down!

Home for the Holidays Day 1

I think I did pretty well for the first day of the Thanksgiving holiday. My parents wanted to treat us to Mexican tonight. It is TOUGH having Mexican without margaritas but I stuck to water. I got there late which meant 1/2 the cheese dip was already gone. Also, good for me. I stuck with chicken fajitas for dinner and piled on the veggies. I steered clear of the rice but I smeared on sour cream so that was bad.

I took a break from work today to hit the gym and then went again tonight after dinner because I REFUSE to gain weight over the holidays. We'll see what tomorrow brings!
