I’m determined to keep posting every day. Maybe I’ll get good at making my mundane, boring, every day life into something new and interesting and exciting! Or maybe not, but who knows, right? To help me along, I decided to join Blog365. Why not, right? A bunch of other people trying to blog every day for a year, just like me!

On top of that, if you didn’t know already, I’m doing a 365 Days project on my Flickr. I don’t really like myself in pictures, but I figure I’ll get over that in time.

Today was fantastic! I went out with Amy. I went to her house and we sat there and had a cup of tea and talked, then we left. We went to Walmart, then came back to my apartment, where she met Mew Mew and I took care of a couple of things. After that we went to Swiss Chalet, where we had a fantastic dinner and chatted some more (of course!). We had a meal that was a piece of chicken, a baked potato, a roll and a tomato/cucumber salad, and finished it off with a dessert - strawberry cheesecake! Yum!

At this point we wished we had cameras. We really need to think ahead, really. Whoops!

After that, we went to Starbucks. I haven’t had Starbucks since I lived in Michigan, over two years ago! I had a Chai Tea Latte - it was fabulous! It really tastes like Christmas, if that makes sense. Kinda like gingersnaps. Yum, again!

I weighed myself today. While I’m not going to say what the scale said, I’ll say it was more than I expected, and I need to do something about it. This weight just isn’t healthy, and I need to fix the problem before it gets even worse. Crash diets obviously aren’t working, so I decided to do something more along the lines of a general life change. I’m changing what I snack on - I’m a huge snacker! I also bought a book that Amy recommended, called You: On A Diet. I’ve heard of it before, but haven’t paid much attention to it. Amy says it’s a good book, and that it makes it much easier to understand what’s going on in your body, and how to lose weight. I suppose we’ll see!

We’re supposed to go to the beach on Friday if the weather’s nice enough. I hope it is!

Katie and I went swimming today. It was so fun! I’m so sore but it was worth the soreness. The poor kitten missed me, though. She just keeps looking at me and touching me and meowing.

We need to name her.. She’s gotta have a perfect name though. I couldn’t have asked for a better kitten!

With this post and the last post, four things have been crossed off of my 101 things list: Adopt a kitten, buy a well-fitting swimsuit, wear the swimsuit in public and go swimming. AND I bought a skirt and wore that on top of my bathing suit, so that’s one thing that’s in progress!

Tacos for dinner tonight. YAY!

I’m tired. I cleaned a bunch today, did some “farming” on my priest (I made over 300 gold today!), finished up Karazhan and pretty much spent my day alone and bored. I had a pretty rough night mentally and emotionally, but I had a couple people who helped and made me feel back on track.

There’s a lot going on in my head lately. A lot of things that I want to change about myself, but don’t have the drive, or the courage, or the opportunity. And sometimes I start out strong, and end up not-so-strong. I need to make a list of these things, but I’m going to do it somewhere privately. It’s a private thing, you know?

I think one thing that has gotten to me is feeling invisible. Right now, it’s with some raids. I’ll study an encounter, read up on it, know what is “supposed” to happen like the back of my hand, but nobody listens to my suggestions. I think it gets to me more because I dealt with this while I was working, too. I had good, organized, logical suggestions for how to fix things, but nobody listened. I really hope I can work on making myself heard.

Anyway, it’s really late (early, really, because it’s morning!) so I need some sleep. Badly. My body is very angry with me right now. My ankle is swollen, and I don’t know why. i don’t remember hitting it, but I probably did at some point.
