Ah, the joys of being home.

Ah, the glory of the small town life. It means the instant you walk out the door, you run in to five people that either make the rest of your day awkward or entertaining. Today was of the sort of awkward variety. I went and attended a play at the high school where I graduated from only to be there the same night as a ton of people that I knew from when I attended school there. And haven't talked to in a long time. A few of which we parted on more than rocky/bad terms..... Which lead to this reaction of mine



Which I should not really have that reaction cause who the f*ck cares, right? But no, I over-reacted. Like I always do and FREAKED OUT. Internally sort of and when someone talked to me, I was like llolk hahahahah WAHT. I am soooo glad that I can keep cool under pressure.

PS... Just realized that I forgot to mention something. I am the scenic design on one of the fall productions at school. Like I thought I would be. Muh ha ha.... Now back to freaking out.

Welcome To The Herd.

Sooooooo I am been introduced to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.... And totally now part of the herd. CAUSE DAMN THOSE PONIES FOR BE IRRESISTIBLY CUTE AND ADORABLE! Every pony in the house say hey, heeey! And it is late. And I am on some weird steroids for my headaches which I am not really clear on how they are supposed to help me out. They just make my body feel numb and tingly. Blergh.

Speaking of Doctors, I had lab work done when I was in there and got the results back super quick. Everything looks ok except for my insulin levels which were way high. Damn. So that is a new push to get my butt up. I still have a gross bruise on my arm from where they took the blood from. A lot of blood. Like four or five vials of the stuff. Awesome. So the doctor is putting me on something called Metaformin which I guess is like some super pill. They use it for a bunch of stuff including encouraging weight loss and controlling insulin. That is cool.

Ummmmm.... Jon took me out today for a great lunch date for all you can sushi at Trappers which was super tasty... and I am now craving more. Even though I ate a bunch of super, super delicious sushi and felt like a little ball of raw fish waddling around all day. I think I find a new favorite place. Their food is just.... mmmmmmmm.. I could have tried everything on that menu if I could have had another stomach. And a better understanding how to pace myself. We popped over to Office Depot and got me a webcam so hooray for that! We went home, played some Fallout New Vegas then went out to see Kung Fu Panda 2 followed by sharing some Cold Stone Ice Cream. Awesome, wonderful date. I am not sure what I am gonna do when he is gone in 11 days... No one for super cute summer dates that I wear my cute summer dresses for. Poop.

OH! So I dyed my hair this color

back in like mid-march and it looks totally great. It faded though to like a sort of really light auburn red color. So I bought a new box of color today that was a different shade that looks like this

and I don't know if it is going to look good or crappy like some bad party store wig...

Summer Goals.

I have a few summer goals this year that I am going to be committed to seeing through to the end.
There they are in no particular order and the list might grow as I discover things I need to work on.
1. Pull together a real professional design portfolio (which mean taking pictures of scenic models, hunting down performance photos, and doing some maintenance on drafting plates followed by putting it all on pages)

2. Finish designing the Magic Flute and do final renderings so it can be a portfolio piece.

3. Lose weight for a friend's wedding. Aiming for like a size fourteen, starting out at like an eighteen right now. Soooo I have to start a stricter diet and working out which is going to start this week. I am going to cut out fast food, soda and gluten. That is going to be the hardest part for me. I love bread and baking. I started slowly doing gluten-free options this week and.... bleeergh it so far has been sort of bland and grainy tasting. I think it gonna take some getting used to buut I have been told that it is going to be good for me in the long-run. And there is a gluten free bakery in Kent by Kent-Merdian that has really good stuff... Wish me luck.
