True story..

I hate religion.

Religious people have either done or said to many bad things to or against me. Religi0n offends me in so many ways.

Um, happily or sadly… I don’t need a security blanket. I walk with a purpose at all times… to kick ass and take names.

For those that say things to me like “God bless…..” I know you mean no harm at all but, you make me cringe and like y0u even less. I’m secretly saying to myself something like,  “fuck you, if only you knew?, die in a fire, or whatever….”

If God was supposedly to be on  my side or what have you, he failed. Twice. As a small child, and as an adult.

Man.

I’m not religious, I try to keep it to myself. I find it better to keep most views to myself. If you choose to be religious, why can’t this kept this to yourself as well? I don’t go on about h0w much I adore sleep… man, sleep is serious business in my book, you have no idea…

Don’t get me wrong, I know a lot of folks that love Jesus. I love them dearly… and we have no conversations about religion or god what so ever.

I love you whether you like it or not that I don’t have faith in your friend, Jesus.

My bed misses me.

leave a comment »

I’m having one of those moments where I’m pretty tired and I’d love to go to bed….
But I still need to make the bed.
And I still need to finish cooking off my garbanzo beans. I love that I can buy a pound of dried garbanzo beans pretty cheap and cook them off myself and stash them in the fridge. I hate the fact that I have to soak them for about 10 hours before cooking them. I either have to soak them overnight, which rarely happens, or soak them all day and cook them at the end of the day. We’ve done the latter and it puts us at 11:10pm.
I’m an old lady and would like to go to sleep.
Actually… my plan is to walk to work tomorrow. Yup, I’m planning on walking the 4 miles to work. I’m kinda stoked and nervous about this. I will have to walk home the same 4 miles, up a steep hill. I’ll have to walk home those 4 miles because Kevin is out of town. I’m also not to sure about this because it puts me out of the house for about 11 hours. Abigail would be home for those 11 hours and would get fed 2 hours after her normal time. Plus, I wore my Frye’s to the dog park and have a blister on my heel that will most likely be gone in the morning due to the homeopathic stuff I took, but still a blister. I’m doing the West Seattle 5k next week, I don’t need any blisters when I do that! I want to do it easily, not all limpy gimpy.

mmm, naps.

leave a comment »

The day may be absolutely beautiful…but if you are to tired to enjoy it, you really could care less.

Saturday and Sunday were both days for naps, and we took them.

Hopefully with all that extra sleep, I’ll be more focused this week. Last week was full of tough, weight gain and no exercize. Yuck.

Saturdays can be fun.

leave a comment »

I was awake at 3:45 this morning. Yes. And that was 30 minutes before my alarm actually went off. And this was all after not getting nearly enough sleep. I’ve been awake for 18 hours! Woohoo.

I worked a fun day. 5 to 1:30. Next week I get to work a bunch of 8  to 5s… as close to 9 to 5 as I can get. Sweet jesus, I might feel normal for a second.

I went to the chiropractor so he could “crack my bones” as Kevin put it. He said something was new and different about my neck… and not in the great way.

I then decided I wanted something pretty to wear. (I lost 2.6lbs this week. ) I hit up a bunch of stores and found nothing. Meaning, I had no agenda so I and nothing jumped out at me. I looked at shoes. I looked at purses. I looked at necklaces and earrings. Well fuck it, we best look at makeup. We got made over to look like a tart, but the eyes were pretty fucking hot.

Then I was on a quest for hair. My hair is bothering me. I then decided I needed some Bumble and Bumble. I went to Rudy’s. I asked the gal about product. She had some awesome and crazy thick hair. I had her cut mine. She did an amazing job!

After getting all glammed out at the MAC counter and getting a hair cut, I felt pretty super. I came home and washed off my face. I thought I’d be pretty awesome and put on the cute shorts I bought in August. They totally ruined that awesome skinny and hot feeling I had. But, after being at the mall I feel very average and not as fat.

Drats. Ooh, I forgot to take all of my supplements. Double drats.

At least I have good hair. I finally found another person that seems to understand how to cut think hair. Thanks Stephanie!

Next is Hoegaarden. Then bed. Man, I need a weekend day off.

I tried to see the green fairy…

Nothing says PARTY! like having to leave at 11:45p so you can be in bed by 12a because you have to get up at 5:15a to be at work at 6a. Booo.

I tried Absinthe. Sadly, it wasn’t my thing. The whole presentation is pretty, the taste just didn’t do it for me. Damn you licorice/anise things, I want to like you but just can’t!!

Ugh.Tomorrow is my last day of getting up at 5:10a… for a while at least. Thankyou,buhbye. I need normal/old sleeping patterns please.

Now that I have my serving license, I can work wine tastings. I’m working one on the 5th! I’m excited to do and learn something new.

Moms know best, mostly.

leave a comment »

Oh mom.
I love you, sometimes more than others. I understand to you really don’t understand depression and you lending a listening ear is the best you can do.
But, you do seem to understand sleep and what a huge effect the lack of sleep has on people. Thank you for your tips, I already knew all of them. And thank you for the $9 to go buy Tylenol PM. While it totally isn’t up my alley to take stuff such as this, I really do thank you for being supportive. I bought it and I’ll try it just this once. Your idea of taking Benadryl was a total flop leaving me hung over, maybe this time will be better.

Sleep is serious business.

leave a comment »

Yesterday was a prime example of how awesome I can be without a decent amount of sleep. Not only was I super tired, but the nap I tried to take was a total flop. I know I was a pain to deal with last night… Kevin told me.

Why am I so fatigued? All the time? My anemia is under control. Are my cortisol levels out of whack again? Are my hormones  trying yet again to tell me they are in charge? Or has all the stress from the past 2 months finally caught up with me, yet again?

Maybe I need to get my butt back to a naturopath and have them help me with this… again. As I’ve said in the past, sleep is serious business.

Kill the allergies, then sleep it off.

leave a comment »

Hey, its the end of May. This means the cottonwood trees will be throwing their fluff all over for about 2 weeks. Fuck you cottonwood. It’s semi decent outside and I pretty much have to stay indoors or use way to much allergy stuff for my liking.

I ate way to much on Saturday and Monday, but still have managed to lose a pound. I still have 5 flex points left after all that eating. Also, I find that if I weigh myself on the mornings I get up super early and don’t get enough sleep the night before, my weight seems off. For example, yesterday at 5:30am with about 6 hours of sleep, the scale said 222. This morning at 7:30 with at least 8 hours of sleep, it said 219. Sleep is serious business, people! Um, I wish I could lose 4 pounds over night, but this seems to be a pattern for me every Sunday and Monday mornings, no budging… then a loss of 3 or so on Tuesday morning. Yes, I weigh myself every day.

Taking my daily B Stress vitamins sure make a huge difference in my nail growth. I love it! I’m going to get a manicure and pedicure next week, my G-Folks are having a 75th birthday/55th wedding anniversary thing and want to look as nice as I can.

Dear sleep-

I thought you and I were great friends, what happened? Lately you seem to disappear when I have to use the bathroom. We go WAY back and I know that sometimes I haven’t taken relied on you like I should, but just to bail on me when I need you most? What gives? Is it because the days are starting earlier? Are you a vampire suddenly?
Please come back for your nightly visit and stay through my bathroom break! All it is is 2 minutes, if even that. Our relationship is still serious business to me, lets work it out.
I know I’ve been drinking a lot of water, but it is good for me. And the weight loss and better eating will be great for the both of us, I swear.
