No More Kelly Belly

So I get a meeting request from my boss yesterday telling me that her and my director have some exciting new to tell me and that they wanted to meet up at 4:00 that afternoon. Well, I left work yesterday not knowing the secret.

So I come into work today and there is another meeting request with apologies for not having the meeting yesterday and that we would meet today. So at 10:30 we all meeet up.

This isn't big news for anyone, but I really benefit from it.

So the deal is "The Company" that I work for has decided to do some straightening up and updating their employees job descriptions AND their pay. This was active as of July 1, 2005 and I will see this on my next paycheck that I get on Friday.

Isn't that cool though...I got a raise just for being an employee..didn't do anything special.

This is just about the most eventful thing that is going on in my life right now besides playing scary videogames with my husband and dodging all the pregnant women that are around me.

Two more souls have been claimed and dragged over to the world of pregnancy. Stay back!

Six months ago today I was waking up at my Nana's house. Getting a shower, getting dressed and getting ready to start the day....my wedding day. It was such a perfect day. Feels like it was yesterday. Since we married life has been good. I have never been happier. Life makes sense. I hope that this marriage last another 6 months and more after that. I love my husband and I love being married. Happy 6 Months to US!

I thought that when women get pregnant they glow and embrace the changes that are happenning to their bodies. Why is it that someone that has the money to make them look good when they are pregnant end up looking like a shithzu? WHY BRITNEY??? WHY?

OMG! I am in such a bad mood today and I don't know why! All I can say is that I don't want to be at work, I am hungry and I am soooo tired right now! I just want to be in my bed under the covers. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK????? grrrrrrrr.

Ok so the one person that consistantly reads my blog is wondering wear all the diet juice is. I AM STILL ON IT. But of course some things in my personal life have made it difficult. Today I brought my lunch its healthy and I still have let off on the cokes. I know that I have not gained any weight. So there.

I think that I am the only person in the world that TiVo'd Britney and Kevin: Chaotic. Some people may not know this about me, but I am secretly a Britney Spears fan. Like huge fan. I think that she is so great. And I really have no reason why. I used to despise her. Right now I am all about her. I guess this will be my way to come out of the Britney Spears closet. So here is my news.

There is chatter going around on the internet that Britney and hubby K-Fed are chatting it up with UPN about a second installment of their reality series. Guess What?! The birth of the POP Princess' baby or maybe BABIES is expected to be broadcasted! That should make an interesting second season. I am sure that I am the only person that I syched about this, but who cares! I think that it would be very interesting to see how she handles the joy of labor and bringing a new life in to the world. I just hope that she doesn't name the baby something crazy like Skittles or something.

So the other day I am driving home from work. Right before I turn on my street there is a cop sitting in the coldesac...probably radaring people. So I turn on my street. Then I see another cop car that is almost across the street from my house. There are two cops sitting in this car. So I go into my house a little paranoid. My husband doesn't know what is going on either.

Now let me take a few steps back for a second to pull everyone up to speed. A few days before there was a shooting at a conveinence store down the street. Let me tell you...the city that I live in does not have a high crime rate...to have a shooting in this old folk suburb is not common. So there was a shooting, I don't think that anyone was killed but it still happened and the people that were shooting got away.

We should be on the same page now. So after I have come home and changed my clothes I go outside to check the mail and my old neighbor came over because she was checking the mail. She said that at the other end of the street it was blocked off and that there were a ton of cops standing around and waiting for someone and that they had already tackeled some guy. - Ok so I am a little freaked out right now. Then I went to the store and sure enough there was a HUGE stand off going on. After I went to the store my family and I went to have dinner at a friends house. When we returned that night it was like nothing even happened. No cops or guns nothing.

Then I find out that two houses down from MY HOUSE lived the people that shot up the 7-11 and apparently had been selling ever drug known to man out of the house and the stand off was to wait till they came home and then bust them. IS THAT NOT CRAZY!!!!

And that is all that I have. Have a good weekend.

Poor Baby Brad Pitt. I bet he is still hot when he is throwing up and has a 102 fever. But who is taking care of him ? Is it Miss Jolie and her children ? Or is it the damsel in distress Jennifer Aniston, the one that was by his side for all those years to nurse him back to health. We will never know....unless People Magazine is there. hehehe

Obviously there is not alot going on in my life. =) Later.

Today was the first day that BestFriendAdam started his career. According to "The Company" that I work for the first day that you start the job is the day that you start your career. BestFriendAdam got a job were I work. I am so exicted for him. Hopefully we will enjoy his job as much as I do. We had lunch together and puffed on a few cigs. It was nice to see a familiar face from the outside come in. Its funny the same things that he was saying me about "The Company" were the same things that I was saying when I first started. Seems too good to be true. I just wanted to dedicate this entry to him and tell him Congrats and I look forward to seeing him everyday again.

It's like a never ending game. Being an adult now there is always something going on in someone that you knows life. For the past 4 years there is always someone that I know or that I am close to that is having a baby, or now, their second baby. It just blows me away. I have been married for six months and with my husband for almost 3 years and we aren't prepared to bring a new life in the world. Right now, I am just terrified that I wouldn't be a good mom, or that I wouldn't know what to do. Every mom that I know tells me that once you have a child that you immediately develop this "Maternal Instinct." I just hope that I get that instinct when I do have a child. Dont get me wrong...I want to have a baby someday, but what is the point of me having this blog if it is about documenting weight loss??? I would like to be married for a while and buy a home and be more stable than I am now. One of my good friends emailed me today to tell me that she is expecting her second child. I just can't believe it and I am very excited for her. It's just that...if I were in her shoes...I dont know if I could handle it.... Oh well...that's her life. I wish her well.

So the weekend went very well. We went to the concert on Friday and had a great time. We were really close to the stage so I could see Howie Day sweat. He looked at me a few times too. Made me have butterflies. Didn't go overboard with the food this weekend either and I think that I may have had only 2 cokes the whole weekend..so that is a plus. Gonna get back to work now. Ta Ta

So here I am like every other American sitting in my cube at my corporate job. Am I working? No I am blogging. But thats ok...this will only take a second. I can't believe that I have already crossed everything off my TO DO List for the day. It's only 10:45!!! What am I to do until lunch? Which by the way I am starving. The diet has gone soso...not as good as it should be. However, I wore a shirt yesterday that I haven't been able to fit into since 2001. So that is progress. I haven't had fast food in a few weeks and I am laying off the cokes still.I know that I am not getting any bigger. Next week has 7 fresh days that I can work even harder at this diet.

So today is friday. Every summer for the past 3 years I have been to a concert. Tonight we are continuing the tradition. My husband and our friends are going to a bar in Dallas and we are going to see the fabulous Howie Day I can't wait. Howie is so good at what he does and he is hot!!!! I just hope that I can control myself and that I don't get too drunk I can't enjoy the show. So I hope that everyone has a HAPPY FRIDAY and a safe weekend. Toodles!

Doesn't it suck when you are craving for something in the morning like a pop tart, or a coke, or a bean burrito and you go to the vending machines at work and the machine that has your delicious bean burrito is OUT OF ORDER??? What is that about? Was it a sign to me that something in the air didn't want me to eat the bean burrito??? I don't get it. There is nothing that I can do since it is the only machine that carries those burritos in the building. They are so good and they are only a dollar. Let me just tell you that this just happened, that is why I am going on and on about it. IM HUNGRY.

So I did really good on the diet last week. I have noticed a difference in the way that my clothes fit, but I really don't notice a physical change yet. I didn't do to well with the diet over the weekend. There was alot of strawberry daqs involved and I know that they aren't healthy. Today will be good though I have my Healthy Choice soup can in my draw waiting for me to open up during my lunch time. Ummmm Veggie Beef! YUCK.
