just a blog

The week is long, but Monday is longer. Only thirteen more Mondays- minus a half for Pres day and one for finals week - only 11.5 more Mondays. Totally do-able.

I am exhausted. I probably overuse that word, but I think I really am exhausted a lot. This is normal for the beginning of the week because my weekend usually messes up my sleeping schedule and the beginning of the week sucks. I don't like my weekend messing stuff up, but I don't like going to bed at nine on a Saturday night either. I also don't like drugging my self up with PM medicine on a Sunday night to fall asleep on time. Gah. There's no real solution here, I just have to suck it up.

On a happy note my good friend Sarah has a boyfriend :) Just in time for Valentine's Day too. I made her promise me that she would call with all the cute details, so that I may continue to live vicariously through everyone else's love life.

I think posting a food journal is helping less than the time it's taking. It helped so much at first, but I've come to a point where I don't think I need it anymore. I am not anti-blogging, so maybe I'll keep doing that. We'll see I guess!

Viva Las Vegas

It's always great to get away, but always much greater to come home. Vegas was fun - I didn't drink that much or eat that much, but I walked for hours. It's true. My mom hadn't seen much of the strip before so we were in and out of 5 or 6 casinos within a few hours. Now I am back and so is reality. I was up bright and early this morning to get to work by six, which I was. I was lazy and slept most of yesterday, and tried to get to sleep early last night, but I couldn't. I did most of my school stuff last week even though I might not remember it all, and now I don't.

On top of it all I have been sucking at any kind of exercise. I had planned that I would do nothing over my vegas weekend, but it turned into nothing all week. I hope to get back on the ball this Wed. My gym at work just started offering a circuit training class from 5-5:30, so that would be great for strength, and then I could just do an easy run after. We'll see how it works out!

For now I am just trying to make it through my Monday... so long. I keep thinking I should do something fun that isn't work or school, but then I would never have time to work out. I barely have the time to do that now, so I guess it's out of the question for now. Oh well. Next year will be much easier.

Breakfast 2/11/08
Oatmeal and a large coffee

Finally Fri (:

This was the longest quickest week ever. It doesn't even make sense, I know, but this week was soooo long. It seems like a month ago I had my Database class; however, my week has flown by. No sense I tell you.

The weekend before finals last semester was spent studying for two classes I truly needed high test grades in for good final grades. I have a gut feeling that's how all of my weekends are going to be spent for four classes all semester. I am really looking forward to summer, so that's going to help me make it through! This is the last semester I have to go full time. This is the last semester I have to go full time. This is the last semester I have to go full time. I just keep repeating that to myself as well.

For now work work work. I can't wait to catch up on sleep.
