just another day

Just another day. Nothing special just sitting inbetween classes and thought i'd blog a bit. Let's see... what to blog about...oh, yeah, this weekend, I will leaving Caryl at home, and taking Sophia to the Lake of the Ozarks! My dad owns a condo just up the beach from Brad Pitt's mansion. My brother and his family, my dad and stepmom, Sophie, and I will be boating and playing in paradise while Caryl sits at home with her nose in a book! She really needs the time to study and having a weekend to herself will definately do wonders for her nerves. Besides, she can't stand my family anyway ;~) Just kidding.
And in regards to the weight loss announcements. I'm currently hovering at same weight
(207 lbs) for the past couple of weeks :~( but hey, at least I'm not gaining weight, right! I refuse to allow myself to go back to the way I was. Things are so much better now, and can only get better as the weight continues to come off. Not only for my self esteam, but also my persumptions of how others see me, as well as, my over health and abilities. One of the goals I have is to defeat the most embarrassing moment of my life. Several years ago, I went to Six Flags, and stood in line to ride my favorite ride (batman) and to my embarrassment, when I got to the seat in the front row (which is a must for this ride), I couldn't fit in the seat. Can you imagine trying to squeeze into a seat and having the employees try to push/stand on the harness to try and make me fit. I was devistated. I never realized how big I was until that day, and I hadn't been back since. Amazingly enough, it took several more years before I did anything about it. I am quite sure that my size is not an issue as far as this scenario is concerned, but I want to make sure of that. So my goal is that by next summer I will go to Six Flags, I will wait in line to ride in the front row of seats, and I will ride batman again! Wow, I think I just teared up a little there. I hope that some of you will be able to join me. I have no idea where whole rant came from. I just started typing and this kinda fell out. Pardon my emotional outburst please :~)
I'm procrastinating again. I should be working on science homework, but the excuse to blog was to readily accessible. I should probably get going. I'll chat @ you later!

That's it don't give up on the weight loss. And don't worry about waiting in line for the Batman ride next year. When our family went this past summer there was NO line for the Batman. You just walked and weaved through those long lines and went striaght to the front or end. We couldn't beleive that there wasn't a line for the Batman. But it's deffinately changed majorly. No line for the Screaming Eagle either. It could have been the day that we picked as well. We went on a Wednesday so keep that in mind when you go too.
