And Another…

Mom’s still at St. Joseph’s waiting to see the neurologist to go over the results of the catheter/scoping from yesterday. She sounded like she was feeling better this morning, so I suppose that’s a plus.

Another Update

Mom had the catheter procedure this morning and is in recovery mode. She looked awful and weak.

Disarmed.

Thanks for the prayers.

Update – 7/4/08

I’m down to 231.0 lbs, as of about two minutes ago, meaning I’ve lost 7.5 lbs since June 29. Not too bad. And I’m not even starving (often). Though I did have that aspartame incident Tuesday. Ugh.

Sitting In Class…

And the prof is not as funny as he thinks he is.

And the students are obnoxious.

Only seven weeks to go!

The Beginning of the End?

Tomorrow I will begin my first ever official diet. I’m doing it with a gal from work, each of us for different reasons. My reason? I’ve gotten fat. Granted, I can wear it pretty well since I’m six-foot-five, but still… not healthy. My health has been on a constant downhill trajectory for a while now, and I need to curtail that before it becomes a real problem. So, starting tomorrow, I’m dieting.

I celebrated the end of my culinary freedom with Chinese take out. Hurrah.

I start the diet with a weight of 238.5#. I’ll try to update that semi-frequently as things (hopefully) progress.

Tomorrow also signals the beginning of the Summer II semester. I’ve got American History and Principles of Sociology this semester. No rest for the weary, I suppose.

I’ve received one grade, a “B” in Psych, from last semester and I’m still waiting on the other so I can get my tuition reimbursed from the CB. I’m still thinking about my major, too… it’s really lousy to be 25 and unsure about what I want to do with myself. I know what I’m good at, but I don’t know how to apply it.

Anyway… i’m going to try and get a book review up here sometime this week. I’m finishing up God Save The Fan, by Will Leitch, tonight and I’ve got some thoughts on it.

Have a safe evening.
