well, i finally figured out where i go to change my name legally. and also found out it costs $250 bucks to do it!
good grief. WHY would it cost so much money to change your name? that's utterly ridiculous.

i wish i could change my name to be only one name. you know, not a first and a last. but i know that it would only cause me a huge headache because every form you ever fill out they ask for 1st and last name and i think that's ridiculous, as well.

i am hopelessly retarded when it come to hooking up new appliances like my answering machine.
so jason is going to help me with that tonight.

i'm trying to get motivated to go out. but i think i may wait until later on, like around dusk because yesterday it was just too hot for me.

looking at this south beach diet book,it doesn't seem to be saying anything new and i'm kind of sorry i bought it.
it's just basically another eat sensibly, eat lean meat and lots of veggies , no refined sugar or flour, low calorie diet. which is like, duh. i think the diet i was thinking about that i wanted to be on was sugarbusters and i got south beach and sugarbusters mixed up. oh well. because in sugarbusters you can eat ALL the veggies you want (of certain kinds). and THAT is what i like, when you can eat ALL you want of something. i absolutely detest measuring things out, like having 1 cup of cauliflower of whatever. who wants just one cup? bah to that!

anyway, it doesn't matter because this walking thing seems to be working out really well for me. and i'm just eating normal portions of things sensibly, just as i always do. the way i eat is i nibble throughout the day. i probably eat like 10 litttle meals. and that is the best way to eat because it keep your metabolism up all the time. i can never sit down and eat one big gigantic meal. (except of it's sushi!) . in fact, whenever i go out to eat, i never can finish it and i take it home with me. one meal in a restaurant is equal to about 3 or 4 meals to me.

i'm a little hung over today. drank a bottle of wine last night, but over a 7 hour period of time so i didn't think it'd be that bad. i mean, it's only 4 glasses of wine. but ouch. at least my headache has mostly gone and now only the dizziness remains. i'm not that bad off, it's just slightly annoying and i don't feel in tip top form. still, i shall get out there and walk today, too.

and i lost weight! glory be. i don't know if it is just water weight or actual weight, but i don't care. i feel far less like a bloatation device. i keep sort of almost getting my period, and then it stops and i don't. i don't know what is up with that. so it could be that it was just water i lost because i certainly did feel all puffy. usually after wine the next day i can feel more puffy, but this time i gues it worked it my favour. who knows? who knows how or why the body works like it does. it is a constant mystery to me.

or maybe it's the walking that is helping. or maybe it's the weather. or maybe i've switched realities. haha :)
man, who knows.

i had this dream or premonition, last night, i think , that someone would want to buy the furry tube hat now that i have attched it to this coat thing. and sure enough, i wake up this morning to an email that someone wants to buy it. ha!
so i told them that after the show, i could possibly detach it from the coat and sell it to them. but i don't know if i will want to do that. i am quite liking this coat muppet thing i am making.

sorry there has not been much picture taking. but there will certainl be a lot more once this fashion show is over with on the 10th. and i didn't get much crocheting done yesterday so i really rrrreeeaalllyyy need to get myself into gear today and tomorrow.

and then also after this show, it's back to clutter clearing and feng shuing my house and doing my damn taxes!
