No, seriously...
What is this, Pepsi? I stop drinking you for a few weeks and this is what you do to get my attention?

6.6!
The title says it all. Week one of eating well/working out has resulted in a 6.6 pound weight loss. I am super excited. Seven days without soda and counting ( Read more... ) -
TGIF
I am so unbelievably happy that today is Friday. All of my students were CRAZY this past week and the idea of having two days straight to sleep in and not see them makes me feel incredibly relaxed. I'm so ready to kick off what's sure to be an awesome weekend. Dinner tonight with Caitlin and Nicole and a scary movie with Liz, then Kara raid ( Read more... ) -
If you got a pet cat, put your hands up!
So today was a field trip and I had to walk up this GIANORMOUS HILL THAT NEVER ENDS with 20 kids and 4 parents and the para and the teacher. And the kids were throwing rocks at cars and picking people's flowers from their gardens and one kids was screaming "I'm going to run into the street and KILL MYSELF!" on a narrow, windy road going up the hill ( Read more... ) -
Success!
After WEEKS of procrastination I finally started the healthier eating plan I've discussed many times on this blog and not done anything about! But Amanda would be so proud I'm actually doing it this time! LOL. This weekend Jason and I found the perfect church for the wedding and set a date--November 22--so no more putting off dieting. I'm not ( Read more... ) -
Step One
It started last night--a sharp ache in my temple--so I took some Advil and went to bed. I woke up this morning and it was like a flash bomb went off. My head was KILLING me and the bedroom felt so bright that I had to go to the bathroom and shut the doors and be in the dark. It's been so long since I got a real migraine. Like a real honest to God I ( Read more... ) -
One year ago today
I wrote in my lj about going to pick up Jason from the airport--the first day we met in person. Now, a year later, I'm writing this from our apartment, after spending most of my evening planning our wedding.
Life is so random. -
Good Times on Cesar Chavez Day
Well I'm glad that whole resolution thing lasted so long. This past week went by really fast. My mom came to visit right in the middle of my I-think-I'm-dying-I-can't-even-sleep sickness thing. I wanted to meet her at the airport but instead she took a cab and we spent her first few hours in San Francisco at my doctor getting hardcore antibiotics ( Read more... ) -
The Amanda Challenge and SWPL
This past week I've been beyond sick with an upper respiratory infection (thank you, second grade classroom) and totally unmotivated. And not the type of unmotivated where I don't want to go grocery shopping or clean the house--we're talking the kind of unmotivated where I don't want to put dishes more than a foot from my bed, or comb my hair or ( Read more... ) -
For Amanda
I titled this post 'For Amanda' because she poked me, which I think I needed since I've been out of the livejournal loop for what feels like forever. There's a lot to write about, but I've felt like I'm in a hibernation period. Either that, or maybe living in CA is just making me withdrawn. Sometimes I'll be on the bus going to work and I'll look ( Read more... )
