Three's a Crowd

My pet scan came back with 3 new spots. 
In the eloquent words of my sister, "Um, yeah. Well, I have no words, that's......yeah. That's shitty.  Um....yeah."
Ditto.

Smoothie? They call that a smoothie?!?!

I sit here on the eve of my bajillionth pet scan.  This is what is going through my mind; vomit, barf, puke, ralph, vom, gag, throw up, bark at the ants, blow chunks, boot, bow down to the porcelain god, hurl, upchuck, do the technicolor yawn, retch, spew, toss cookies, chuck, and yack.  Who makes this shit??????????????  I'm only 2 sips in..........

Oh, check out The Online Slang Dictionary.......brilliant.

Happy Valentine's Day! I got a ro-ose, I got a ro-ose......nah, nah, nah-nah, nah.

It was orange and from a 4 year old. Oh and the box of chocolates I got, from another 4 year old, I ate. In one sitting. In bed. About 2 hours ago.

As I continue on my journey of happiness, I feel.....good. Great, actually!  I've been reading Crazy Sexy Diet.  Fantastic book. It gave me the boost to really change my lifestyle. I changed my juicing (vegetables) routine to the morning when I wake up, which gives me long lasting energy all day long and also causes intense starvation at around 9:00 AM.  SO intense I want to eat the small preschool children I am teaching. Somehow they are all accounted for at the end of the day and are safely returned to their parents.

I have started another journey: vegetarianism. A good friend gave me the best advice ever......'don't tell anyone you are trying to become a vegetarian.'  Oops.  So becoming vegetarian is easier than I thought partly because I really don't eat meat to begin with.  But I have been trying to really cut out the 'white stuff' and other 'bad carbs'.  That part is not so easy. Especially when I leave the house for dinner or drinks, with my mother yelling out the door, "Watch what you eat and drink!" You can only imagine what happens at dinner......drinks, drinks, drinks, and wings.
People say that you lose weight when you become vegetarian. I feel fat.....er.  It could be the accidental beer and wings though. Or the box of chocolates........

I have met a few vegans along the way.  It is very motivating to be around them and it helps that they are pretty amazing bitches! It keeps you in check for sure.
And I get organic vegetables delivered once a week, which is SUPER exciting!!! The delivery guy......not as excited as I am.

I am not 'there' yet (wherever 'there' is), but every bit counts. Here I come!!!!!
