dizzy

first things first: i have two followers! that makes me incredibly happy. i spend a lot of time feeling alone, so anytime people want to hear what i have to say i appreciate it so much more than you know. hello!

i haven't had a chance to write in a while. i haven't been home much. right now i work for two agencies--one finds me temporary office positions, and one finds me nanny work. yesterday and the day before i had two different nanny jobs that lasted all day, like i was gone from 5:30am until 9pm on tuesday, and 7am until 11pm yesterday. cra-zay.

luckily, chasing after children is not easy. i got in a lot of walking, lifting, running around, etc. i also had plans to not eat, but i am having a hard time squelching that poor-girl voice inside of me that screams FREE FOOD, REMEMBER HOW POOR YOU ARE???? i ate lunch both days, probably totaled around 600 cals on tuesday, and yesterday more than that, because i ate cereal at home, too.

however, i'm not going to let it get me down. my work pants are looser in the thighs, which is nice because they used to be tiiiiight. i'm keeping on.

today i have an apple with me (80), and i may have a spring vegetable cup-a-soup (45) later, but i don't want to eat a lot. i have a first date tonight and we are going for drinks. it's not exactly a blind date because i have spoken to him on the phone before, but we haven't met yet. i am a member of okcupid which sounds (and is) waaaay lame. my brother met his fiancee on that site, and sometimes i get curious and log in. then people message me...whatever. we'll see.

good news of the day: the yoga pants i ordered last month that never came have surfaced! they got returned to sender which is ridiculous, but at least i'm not out that money.
bad news of the day: i was planning a trip to london/edinburgh for new year's but that just fell through. stupid stupid. my summer boy (we work at a camp together) lives in england and i was so excited to see him. we're going to try for a trip in the spring, but that's soooooo far away.

hope everyone has a good day!! i'm feeling empty and light-headed...hope you are too!!
