"Head Hunger is a Battle of Epic Proportions"

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the delay. I spend almost every waking minute on my computer, but not for blogging purposes. I'm sure you are all so depressed ;)

The weightloss thing has been going okay. At the end of last week, I had lost about five pounds. Yay! Not for long though. Tim got his wisdom teeth out last week, so he's been off of the exercise wagon for a week, and I have no motivation without him (Sad, I know),so we've both fallen off. As a result we've eaten terrible foods and, while he's maintained his twenty pounds of loss, I've gained all five pounds back plus .3 pounds. Greeeaaat! Oh, well! I have a plan!

Tim's brother's girlfriend, Danielle a.k.a "my sister in-law...ish", and I are pretty much obsessing over our Disney trip next year. No, it has barely been spoken about, but yes, we have every detail planned down to the day, but not the minute 'cause that's just crazy talk. We have itineraries and menus and crazy stuff that only travel agents should make. Oh well, we love it and it makes the days go by!

ANYWAY , how does my weightloss plan work into this? Well, she and I both want to lose weight before Disney. She and I practically switched weights since we first met. She weighs as much as I did... aka she lost 40 pounds, and I, well, I weigh more than she did having gained more than 50 pounds, but whatever. We both want to lose weight, so how better to do it than together? Now, she lives in Wilmington, so physically doing it together is next to impossible. We are, however, going to do the same plan and keep each other accountable. We obsessed over creating a private website together where we could post our weights, pictures, thoughts, recipes, and whatnot so that she and I could see each other's progress or lack thereof. We're pretty stoked about it. We're calling it "Operation Disney Drop-It". Catchy, we know :-D Anyway, our plan is to do the C25k, or Couch to 5k, thing which is running/walking three days a week. That's the minimum requirement. I'm also going to go to the gym to tone-up a little! Yay! I'm always looking for a workout buddy, so if there are any takers!Well, that's that.

So what have I been doing with my post-graduate life? Nothing, and I hate it. I have been searching for a job non-stop. When you hear on the news that the economy is terrible and there are no jobs out there, it's basically true. There are jobs out there, but few that are entry-level for students who can't obtain their career goals yet since they haven't been to grad school. I've sent resumes to so many places, but to no avail. I'm really hoping for something soon. If anyone knows of anything - please, please pleaseeeeee let me know:) I'd be most appreciative.

The only other exciting thing is that we're moving to a new apartment at the end of July/beginning of August. I'm super pumped! I'll be my first adult apartment and I couldn't be more excited! I'm looking for some awesome DIY stuff, so feel free to post back with any ideas. I'm really into retro stuff. I love BIG flowers and BIG bows (notice my background on here). That kind of thing. I also ADORE color.

Well -- I think that's everything in a nutshell!! There is some exciting stuff coming up... like.. I'm going to a complete nerd convention called Dragon*Con, similar to ComicCon, in September. Totally NOT my scene, but it's going to be the experience of a lifetime! I'm going with some friends of mine that said I should go. It's in Atlanta so I get to see the Aquarium and the History of Coke museum. Yes, I'm more pumped about those than the convention itself. But hey -- I like Star Wars and Mythbusters... so maybe it won't be so bad! ;)

Well -- fo' realz. I'm hitting the sack. I'm tired of sending in applications. Please keep me in your prayers. I really need a job. Reaaaallllly bad.

Sigh.

Farewell, my friends!
