BLECH! I am light-headed from allergies, sneezing nasty snot all over everything, roaming around my house in a dazed stupor. Not hard to imagine why I didn’t pick up the phone when Adam called. The day tried to begin pleasantly enough. I actually woke up in the span of 8:30-9, instead of 10:30-noon. I ate breakfast and started all my laundry, including my pile of things needing hand-washing that I basically put off until it takes over my closet. So every item of clothing I have is now clean, including all bedding and rugs, excepting the clothes I am wearing and the smaller, not-yet-impending pile of Dry Clean Only. But I feel like crap. I should take a shower. Yes. That would help my allergies, which have already died down from this morning, but my stomach had a bit of acting-up time too. And then I got a Reader’s Digest in the mail (my grandma renews my subscription every year, like it or not) and I was once again reminded of the Columbia explosion, where 7 noble and highly intelligent people lost their lives miles above Texas. Thank you Reader’s Digest. I then proceeded to the computer where, after 20 minutes of internet research, I have diagnosed myself with type 2 diabetes. But I did learn that my BMI (body mass index) is now at a healthy level. (Joy!) Well, actually, it’s barely in the healthy range – 24.5 in a range of 19-24. That may seem over, but the website said it was still healthy so I’m assuming they mean all values of 24 up to 24.99. So HA. And I have a new BMI goal of 21, which will be reached when I am 115 lbs. I am now at 130 lbs, which I still am very proud of because I weighed 153 lbs at the end of my sophomore year of college. See?! I have just completed major weight loss planning, all whilst sitting on my rear staring at a lighted square box. Fantastic.
Ew. I just realized Tyler should be calling for the gym in a little while. Perhaps running will do me some good. Tomorrow I take the toll booth collector test at 9AM. I hope I feel much better by then. Bye-bye, nice people.
By the way, don’t ever watch Intolerable Cruelty. It was dumb. Even George Clooney could not distract me from picking up a magizine in my boredom.
One more thing, Alesha is the best person in the whole world because she bought me a DVD about geisha called The Sea is Watching. I will tell you how it is when I watch it.
