finding the time

yesterday after work, my mom wanted me to go to ikea for her and return some unwanted christmas presents. i didn't want to, but it's sort of on the way, and way out of her way, so i said alright.

a person just can't zip in and out of ikea. it's impossible. either the line up for returns is really long, or something catches your eye, and suddenly you are looking at things you never knew you needed until that very moment.

and then it's 7:30 already, and you're starving, but motivated, so you wait until you get home to eat dinner and wolf it down like a hungry fox and then feel kind of worn out and too lethargic to exercise? sound familiar? and not to mention your sleeping patterns are all out of wack since you've basically had the last week and a half off so you are very tired but don't want to go to bed early... just veg out and watch four episodes of true blood online.

that's my excuse for not exercising yesterday. i will have to do something today though! and it's the season premiere of the biggest loser again! that is a little too fast for me. i like that show a lot, but i need a season off. and i'm not going to not watch it... heaven forbid. i borrowed yoga booty ballet from the library, maybe i will do that tonight.


in other news, i tried a friend's wii fit on the weekend, and i can't stop thinking about it. it was really quite fun and entertaining. and i was very sore the next day, and the day after, so it must have been working!

bad mood betty

i am not impressed with today. already, it's pouring outside, i was a smushed sardine (against people with b.o.) on the streetcar this morning, my curtains crashed to the floor in my bedroom for no reason, i tried to put them back up (with screws and a drill) and they crashed down again, leaving a stupid ugly hole in my freshly painted wall, i am going to a bridal shower right after work today and had to bring my outfit to work, which means i have to get ready at work, and so on so on so on blah blah blah.

the shower is so far up north that i have to take the subway all the way up to the last stop, where a friend is meeting me and driving us the rest of the way (about 30 mins). it is an italian wedding shower which means a five-course dinner. i am not complaining about that, of course. :o) however, i am not in the mood to play any shower games. and if anyone asks me when i am getting married i am going to wind up my arm like a female baseball pitcher and sock 'em one! yes, i said sock 'em. then i am taking the subway all the way back downtown and meeting up with my boyfriend and our friend who is having a birthday party at a dance club. keep in mind that i won't have gone home all day! obviously i'm going to have to leave clothes and stuff at work. i hate being a dance place and carrying a purse. girls with purses are soooooo annoying. they are always bumping into everything. damn it!

today is weigh in and i am 118.4 up 2.2 pounds from last week. i am not surprised because i could not keep my hands out of the cereal box. seriously i was a snacking fiend. it doesn't bother me at all that i gained, because i'm in the range, but it bothers me that i couldn't stop snacking. i wasn't even hungry. i knew i wasn't hungry and in my mind i said, "close the box, close it right now" and i still didn't. next week my goal will be not to snack on cereal. maybe i will hide the cereal. how ridiculous.

today i'm eating:

1 blueberry fibre waffle
100g source yogurt

weight control oatmeal with flax and a 1/3 package regular oatmeal (i put too much water in)
coffee coffee coffee

ravioli lean cuisine with added red, yellow, orange peppers

an apple

super fabulous dinner
