Sunday morning...and 7+ days of freedom from work

mood: good
listening to: tv - Breakfast at Tiffany's

First...

You Are 33 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

Yipes...I do act like an adult! *gasps*hides* I think the only kid-like answer I gave was that my dream job would be to work at FAO Schwartz :) I was torn between that and Google, though :P 'Course, at FAO, I could get a discount on Star Wars goodies :-D

So, it's Sunday morning, D is still out of town, and I have already gone to the grocery store, gotten a yummy grande vanilla no fat no whip latte from Starbucks, been home, taken out the trash, and put away the groceries. I am pretty impressed, actually. Seems like I am more productive when D isn't here, which is odd to me. It seems like I would be less motivated, but I feel guilty or something if I just lay around when he is gone. That way, when he gets home, I actually have an answer for "What did you do while I was gone?" The answers "played neopets and watched Friends all day" just don't hold the same importance to him as they do to me. :) That being said, after I finish my journal, I will be heading over to neopets. It has been a few days and I need to go see my pets. I also need to work on my Packrat avatar some more. Gah...I am so addicted :P I was actually laying in bed this morning thinking about that being on my "to-do" list.

On the diet front, I have lost 2 more lbs this week putting me at 136. My ultimate goal is 120, but I am beginning to think that may be a bit too much. I actually like myself a little heavier than that. If I could get to 130 or so and hold there, I would probably be fine. I just want to get down to about a size 8...just loose my tummy and a bit off my thighs, and I would feel good about myself. I already feel so much better, though...I was actually able to get into a size small sweater from Old Navy that I wore for mine and D's engagement pics back in Sept. '02. My belly showed a little bit, but overall, I was pretty happy with how well it fit. My size 10 jeans are also starting to get a little loose, and I have given my 12's to Ari because they are all WAY to big for me. :) I need to go back through the clothes I had set aside to try and sell in a consignment store, though, and make sure there are no 8's are smalls in there that I might be able to wear again. I didn't think I would be back into small tops, but it looks like I will. It does break my heart that all the 4's and 6's I have from Petite Sophisticate still have to go...I had some really pretty things from there. I wish I had someone to pass them on to. I gave a few things to Gloria at work, but she already said I have done more than enough for her and her daughter, so I guess I will just sell the rest. I have 4 huge Old Navy bags full of stuff. A lot of it is the 25+ pairs of jeans. :p Everytime I went up a size, I bought like 5-6 pairs of jeans since they seem to be a staple in my wardrobe. I have considered selling those in lots by size on ebay, but I hate having to package it all up and ship it. I am just too lazy, I suppose. I may look around today and see how much lots like that are going for and see if it is worth it or not.
