Parades cause traffic. Stupid awful traffic.

I heard somewhere that if you do something for like 20 days straight it turns into a habit.  I don't think it's actually 20 days... probably more like 20 months.  But at least I'm putting this blogging thing into practice more.  So only 19 months and 28 days left to make it a permanent thing! Hah. 

Speaking of habits... I have one.  Well I have many... most of which I hate.  Including the one awesome habit that plans to do certain things... like being productive... and then conveniently not doing any of those things.  I'd guess one might call it laziness.  But it's not just that... Because I always have every intention to do everything I plan on doing.  Yet somehow I don't do any of it.  Well sometimes I do a tiny little bit... I semi-blame the television.  It's like a blackhole for time wasting.  Even when the shows are awesome... it just gets ridiculous.  Netflix is evil.  Which only adds to the other point I'm going to make.

Losing weight is hard.  And when you do accomplish such a feat... keeping it off is just as difficult.  And usually... you don't even realize you're in a downward frappucino/sugarycandy/fried food spiral until it's too late.  And you're back to square one.  I'm not quite at square one, but I'm close enough to want to stab myself in the thigh.  It goes back to the whole making plans ideology.  I totally plan on eating healthy and maybe even exercising a bit.  I plan on NOT eating fast food or the popcorn (which I totally ate today) or cheesecake or whatever else exists to make me fat.  And yet for the last year my lack of commitment to losing weight or staying healthy was astronomical. And I don't know what the key is.... All I do know is I have only five months to lose weight for my wedding. And sure I don't look absolutely awful.... But I want to look a tad better than not looking absolutely awful. Haha. 

And I'm about to say, well I can just start tomorrow. But that brings me back to my whole love of planning... And zero follow through. Full circle! 

Any advice? Particularly to find that motivation? (You'd think the wedding would be motivational enough... And the wedding night but here I am chowing down on Halloween candy so obviously not :/ )... Maybe if I make a game of it? I love games! Or a competition? Ideas people! I need ideas! 

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you either dressed up in some awesome costumes or saw some cute kiddies in some awesome costumes!!! 

Until next time! ;) 

Another day... Gone awry?

Well, not completely awry. As of right now I'm actually quite content. This morning however was anything but smooth. It's that whole saying about if something can go wrong it will go wrong. That's a saying right? Because it was the epitome if my morning.

I've been subbing at a theatre that is not mine for the last two days... And yesterday went by rather peacefully overall...But today was just not happening. Imagine walking into a test that you have studied for. For example, Spanish. So here you are ready for that Spanish test and then you're given your test. And it's in Portuguese. Which would have been fine if you were studying Portuguese but the last time you checked Spanish isn't Portuguese. And not only that but your usual teacher is replaced by no one. That's right... No one is there handing out tests. They're just on a desk waiting to be filled out in a classroom that is being worked on by at least ten construction workers.   That's about as good of a metaphor as I'm going to be able to give. Point is I aced the Portuguese test, but totally wanted to rip out all my hair and punch my teacher in the face. End of rant... And ridiculous metaphor.

But the work day is over and I am free! Free to sit on my bum and watch tv!!! Lazy days every day! Actually I am going to do some laundry and empty out a box! Yes you read correctly, I still am unpacking from the move I made at the beginning of September. That's how I roll.

And you know what I'm excited for? Halloween and Christmas!!!! Thanksgiving not so much. Want to know why? Because while everyone will be thinking of the 22nd of November as Thanksgiving weekend.... I'll be manning the throngs of people for the Hunger Games opening. I am the opposite of excited because unlike Harry Potter fanatics for Harry Potter premiers they're not Harry Potter fanatics and it's not a Harry Potter movie.  Which makes them much less worth my patience.  Whatever. Yay doom and gloom and an awful ending to a moderately interesting book series. Not that I have any opinions on the matter. ;)

Alrighty. Have the happiest of hump days!!!!  

I'm totes a Disney Princess.

Obviously.  I belong.

This wedding planning has me going a tiny bit bonkers.  There's just so much to do... and so much money that I don't have to spend on things I may or may never use again!  Talk about not overwhelming what so ever.

With that said, it's a baby step kind of process.  Michael has been a ton of help and support.  Which is great since I feel like I work almost all the time.  But trying to plan a future with someone else is also a new kind of challenge.  An exciting one at least.  And to think people ask about when kid's are going to start happening.  Hah!  No.  Let's simmer down and actually have a wedding first.  Crazy sauce.

I wish I could tell you a story about my work, but I'm pretty sure that posting anything about my job on social media is frowned upon immensely.  Alas, as entertaining as this story would be I must refrain.  The point of the story though (I can share that much) is: people can be ridiculously lazy and it's just so depressingly sad.  That is all.

Oh, and who is excited for all this Marvel talk?  Age of Ultron, Captain America: Civil War, Benedict Cumberbatch as Dr. Strange?!?!  Not going to lie... that last one is the best news ever!  However, waiting two or three or seventy years for all of these things to occur is unfortunate.  Patience is a virtue?
Alrighty, well Halloween is coming up.  Hope everyone has a blast.  AND makes good choices ;)

Yay.
