rush....rush...

Its not just a Paula Abdul song these days. I seriously have been so busy -  I'm stressed about not doing the things that make me - well - me.

I knit
I embroider
I kvetch (ok, that one I am all caught up on)
I geek out
I spin wildly like a dervish
I'm a control freek.

Some events have transpired...

  • I lost Mokey Moo. Without getting into it - and therefore causing me ill feelings...I am still pretty upset. Gus and I are back to a party of 2.
  • I have gained a bit of weight.
    • Seriously you know I am freaking out about this if you know me. I'm at least 10 over my comfort weight. On a midget like me...that's a lot.
    • I am working to get back to my raw diet
    • I'm having a hard time - my legendary self control has diminished.
      • where the fuck did it go?
        • get back here!
      • I'm doing better with about 70% raw
      • I WANT TO BE 90% raw by September.
      • DAMN YOU POTATO CHIPS
  • I have a bunion
    • while its not terribly disfiguring, it's a real pain in the foot.
      • Gus keeps stepping on it - how he can walk sideways between my legs and hit it - I have no idea - he needs to go off and join Cirque Du Solais- and make me some damn money with that talent.
      • Flip flops are the new black flats/converse
    • It's my driving foot
      • I am scared to take sick leave...how can they possibly survive without me? 
    • I'm getting surgery next Monday 7/30/12
      • I don't like being put under
      • I am a wimpy pain girl
      • I HATE narcotics...I will literally scratch myself so bad, I put socks on my hands at night 
  • I am no longer the wino I once was.
    • Some (like me, most days) may think that is a good thing, but giving up something that I love so much and dealing with my reservations, has not been easy.
    • It's been so many blah blah blah's since my last glass
    • I'm accepting of it, but it doesn't mean I like it/or used to it
      • I saw yesterday they changed the name of my favorite store to TOTAL WINE.
      • I would have normally been like YEAH~! 
      • I was like oooh - cupcakes (cakes plus is next door)
  • I gave up SMOKING CIGARETTES - COMPLETELY
    • It goes along with the good/bad thing. It's mostly good...
    • first - nicotrol inhalers (YUCK)
    • second - electronic cigarette
      • I also got another lovely lady to give up the smokes with the ecig - I feel like I saved her life along with mine!!
    • now: almost down to nothing
  • My teenager is acting like a complete, well, teenager
    • she's at camp
    • I have the plague
    • I am a complete moron
      • I am embarrassing
        • I have no idea how this happened...I am a cool mo-fo.
    • I probably will meet her "boyfriend du jour" when she comes home
      • I hope not
So that's what is up in my world.
Going to try to document my bunionectomy in photos...
If I can tear myself away from the Kristen Stewart Cheating Scandal and the Jackson Family Feud.

Kiss, Kiss.
Rush...Rush...
