Words Unspoken|Today is where your book begins, the rest is still unwritten.

I’ve posted this at Midnight but I figure I’ll give more people a chance to guess at it, so here goes. I’ve taken 50 random songs from my playlist and put the first line of each of them down. Can you guess the song from the first line?

001. Wake up and smell the coffee, rise and shine, the early bird gets the worm…
002. I was just walkin’ that day aimlessly, you picked a perfect day to bump into me…

050. We get it on most every night, when that moon is big and bright…

Matt and I are watching The Shining right now. I’ve been incredibly brave, considering how much I hate scary movies. The phone rings in the movie… and then it rings here. At the same time. Gah!

Every day I have this picture of me nearby. On my desk when I’m at home, in my purse in the car, in my book that I read while working out. It’s right there reminding me that there is a goal in mind. I’ll lose the weight eventually, and maybe with it, I’ll lose the insecurity and the self-consciousness that many years of mental self-abuse has given me. If I like myself, maybe I’ll be happy. For now, I keep this picture nearby.

I have this awesome friend, Angela. She’s going through a horribly rough time right now. In late November, her father had a stroke, and at the moment is unable to work. This has left her family with the possibility of losing their home. She is having a very difficult time with the legal system, and they’re not helping her for a variety of reasons, one even being the fact that she doesn’t have kids. It’s very sad and very frustrating for her, and that’s not just something you can sit back and watch.

Basically, her friends are trying to help raise a little bit of money for her - enough to keep her afloat until her father’s legal stuff gets worked out. So if you have even a little bit of money to spare for an honest good cause, please go visit her site and donate a little bit. Or even just post a link to her site on your site. Anything that anyone can do will be a big help for this wonderful person in a terrible situation.

We’ll start with the sore muscles. I went to the gym yesterday, as always, and was going to do my basic cardio warm-up and then weight circuit. When I got there, I realized I was just in time for a new class - back and abs. By the end of the half hour class, I was so tired that I could only do the lower back machine. After that I just went home. I was beating myself up for it, until today. Today, my ab muscles are so sore that walking hurts. Today, I’m down two pounds from yesterday. Today, I feel better about my fitness than I have in a couple of months. So I’m satisfied!

After my workout I went to buy some staple groceries (toilet paper, garbage bags, etc.) and came across a sequel to a book series that I loved reading - Shopaholic & Baby. I’m not very far into the book but so far it’s living up to my expectations! I love series books. It makes it easier to be absorbed in the story.

Now, about Facebook requests… What’s the deal with them? I have to admit that I’m annoyed by them. I hate having to log in and “ignore” 20+ requests on a daily basis. I’m not completely innocent - I’ll send requests to select people if it’s an application that I think they will find interesting or fun. However, I don’t just let every application that I ever use send requests to every person on my friends list. Is it just me, or does anyone else think that’s rude and/or annoying?
