No more worries

I get the feeling that my family is very worried about me since Rachel is in Italy. Well family, I’m doing fine. I’m (involuntarily) taking the New Special K Challenge™ – the one where you kick start your day with a bowl of Special K and replace another meal with a second bowl of Special K. I usually eat my second bowl at dinner because I am too lazy to cook the microwave dinners I bought for myself. To be fair though, we don’t have a microwave, so to be expected to wait 30+ minutes while my 300 calorie meal slow cooks in the oven just isn’t that appealing.

On a serious note though, I picked up the new Ryan Adams album tonight. And get this, in addition to only paying $10.99, I got a free Easy Tiger poster AND a free live performance DVD. I’m keeping my poster in pristine condition until I can figure out what to do with it. If I take it into the office and hang it in my corner it will probably be faded by the sun by the end of summer. If I hang it somewhere in the house, I will only be able to keep it up until Rachel gets home. Either way, I’ve only got about a month of good use out of it (and yes, that was a cheap shot at the length of Oregon summers). The album is good, I like when he plays electric, but his acoustic songs – especially if he adds a little banjo – are always my favorite. Easy Tiger leans pretty heavily towards acoustic, which I think is going to mean good things.

Now that I’ve worried everyone about my eating habits, I’m going to get some dessert (probably a third bowl of Special K) and try to stay up with my goal of watching a movie a night. Tonight’s “movie” will probably be 4-5 episodes of The Office Season 2. Sometime soon I’ll post the movies I am trying to watch during my month alone.

    I think the 3rd bowl defeats the purpose of eating special K

    I think a 3rd bowl is fine!! What is it 100 calories? You are doing really well and it will be good for your relationship to watch the movies you like. Rachel will appreciate the honest info.

  1. you’ve inspired me to start a reese’s puffs challenge.

  2. hi love. i hope you are eating more than just Special K! I love you and miss you! xoxo

    I know I’ve called you more but I like talking to you. I miss you and Rachel and it makes it a little better! I have the same problem with one of my blink posters, only it is me that won’t allow it in our house. I finally hung it in the basement. I am very happy with it there. Maybe you could try that! Happy 4th!
