Tequila!

I can't believe i forgot to mention tequila. I will also have a bottle of smuggled from Mexico tequila that will need to be consumed at my next adult beverage laden gathering. And if the void has anything to say about it, I'm sure Mr. Rumplemintz will also be invited. (Not that this matters to many of you, and not that I will be consuming the majority of this, I'm using this as a 'Hey don't forget to buy all of this shit' reminder for myself. You know, if you write it down you are less likely to forget it.)
Today will be a post full of randomness...
I swear to Christ I am one of the few weight loss bloggers that does not have a myriad of health issues, as in, go to the doctor every other day, switch doctors three times in the last three months because I'm not getting diagnosed with anything type people. (Here's a hint sweetpea, visit a fucking shrink...your problems need a mental health physician, not a general practitioner.) While I feel for people who don't, well, feel good, I have little patience for hearing about their ongoing medical crisis, especially when they want to lament about it incessantly for weeks on end.
Wow...I have used a lot of big words in my last two blogs. Felonious, lament, incessantly. (Yes, there will be a vocabulary quiz later.)
So, we had family trip to the dentist this morning...LOOK AT THAT! It's a step in the right direction towards this whole optimal health thing, right? I even scheduled all of us for another check up in six months! It had been a scarily long time since I had been to the dentist. It's not that I'm "afraid" of the dentist, it's just that I have flashbacks of being a child going to see Dr. Fischer and having his catcher's mitt sized hands coming at my tiny little mouth. (Okay, fine, you win, my mouth was never tiny, but my God that man had enormous hands.) Jaci, no cavities, Drew, no cavities, me, no cavities, we were on a roll till the void had to ruin our streak...poor baby has to get a filling on Monday. (And to think he's the one that packs the rest of our asses about not brushing "well enough." Take that.....)
I did have wine last night several glasses. I also had shrimp that was supposed to be grilled, it was most likely nuked and then left on the plate for oh, I don't know 18 minutes before serving. With it I had a Greek salad. Holy bad breath after the Feta cheese and Greek dressing on that bad boy. My apologies Dr. Schulz if the crest and listerine didn't take care of that. I consider it a small victory that i ate that while sitting next to a ginormous bowl of fettuccine with garlic bread...two of my very favorite things...I even managed not to drool on Michelle. At least I think I didn't.
Holy fucknuts, it's been cold...wowza, spring cannot get here soon enough.
Not that I want to make excuses for myself, but seeing as how I only have an elliptical and not a treadmill at my house, I need to join the health center so I can begin to train for my not, one, but TWO 5k runs I have said I will do this summer. My quasi-excuse...I cannot join the gym until after wrestling season, there is just no time. Life is too hectic to commit to "gym work" outside of the home until wrestling season is over. The plus side..wrestling season will be over soon. The junior high season ends Feb. 24, AAU will continue, through March, but there will not be evening meeting associated with that. SO, my plan, join gym March 1, begin Couch to 5K program at that time. If anyone would care to join me, feel free, the more the merrier.
I really need to plan better. Mornings at my house are nothing short of chaotic. It usually involves me trying to manage Jaci's 'fro' while putting on mascara and brushing my teeth while Drew throws some toaster strudle in the toaster so they can eat it in the car on the way to school, so I'm not known as "one of those moms" who doesn't feed their kids before throwing them out the door. This morning, was no different, as we got ready to go to the dentist. As I'm hurrying out the door, I forgot to grab any of my "food." I really didn't want to eat after my teeth cleaning and polishing, but I knew I needed to, so alas, breakfast this morning was a bag of semi crushed honey mustard pretzels that had been floating in the bottom of my purse for some time. Snack will be tomato soup that was in my desk drawer. I'm leaving today at 2, so I am hoping I can hold out until then....
