I am going to bed tonight with more hope in my heart.

oy. Today was a bad eating day. It didn't start out that way but somehow ended up that way after I pigged out at dinner. So, the bro's wedding is in four and a half weeks, and I am supposed to be in it. There's a slight problem, tho: I can't fit in the dress.

I HATE SNAKES!!!!

Eight days later. This has changed my life, for sure. I am so thrilled that I can see! It still catches me off guard. Many nights, I will lay down to sleep and as I am just about to fall over that edge into a deep sleep, I wake up in a panic. Oh crap! I forgot to take my contacts out! Oh...right...nevermind.
