Bonjour

Today, I shall type with a french accent. :P

So, a lot has happened the past couple days. And I'm tired. Lol

So, pay day came early. I already said that. But we got up early and went to the bookstore and out to "lunch." Then went to our friends wedding around 6:30. The wedding was beautiful. Many people showed up. Makes me feel kinda crappy about myself. But oh well. Nothing new.

Lots of dancing and good music. Was lots of fun to watch all these young adults dancing with older relatives. All the friends they had were mostly from high school. I said that wrong. They were friends "in" high school. Only a few were underage. But everyone was close and had cute jokes and games.

I kinda felt like an outsider. It was so fun to watch. But made my chest hurt a little. I never could make many friends. And they all drifted away. Some rather quickly. My power of invisibility strengthened and I couldn't turn it off. I am forgetful and I am forgetful. Easy wiped from people's memories. *sighs*

It was so fun to watch. And I could at least dance a little with my husband. I have pictures of them dancing. I couldn't get any picture of the bride and groom. We were placed almost around the corner from the ceremony.

It's a picture of Jorel (hubby), Lance, and Roger (groom.) They were playing some wedding game where you could buy dances with the bride and groom. And Kayla (bride) had a long line of men suitors and Roger had no one. Lol. So Jorel and Lance decided they would dance with Roger to be a demonstration. And it worked. Lol. He got a big line of ladies.

This is a picture of everyone doing the macarina. Picture are pretty bad quality because they are from my phone. But my camera broke. Sadness. It was so fun to watch everyone have fun.



Ok. *wipes tears from eyes*

The party just would not disperse. Of course the older generation left first. But all his friends stayed behind to chat and dance and have fun. I don't think we got out of there until almost midnight. My feel were tired. And Jorel was even more tired because he and some friends watched a Ukrainian video on break dance moves that were ridiculous and did a unison dance that made everyone laugh there ass off. I should see if I can get that from someone. Maybe someone got a video. My phone couldn't take any more pictures.

After we left, we went to Ziggy's to munch on a couple of appetizers and decided we didn't want to go home. We were feeling good. He got a message from an army buddy. And we ended up saving her from a few drunk "friends" that were using all of her money. So we hung out together and became fast friends. I couldn't get myself to shut up. Me. Shy, talk to no one. I was going on and on about this and that. To like no end. It may have been the Cosmopolitan and the Amaretto Seduction I drank at the wedding. Plus, I was really tired and punch drunk. But I just couldn't stop talking with her.

She left us around 3 a.m. to drive her drunk friends home. I stayed up with hubby a couple more hours so mad that she was such a nice girl who let people treat her badly like she believed she didn't deserve better. I hate abusing friends. That's not friendship. Anyways, not going to ramble about that anymore.

Ok! Today. I traded my '94 Honda Civic with almost 200k miles on it for a '84 Porsche 944. Yes, I know. You're all jealous. Just kidding. Like any one will care.

The pic is one he took when we were discussing the trade. I'll get a new one tomorrow if I get up when the sun is out.
It's a 5-speed so I'm gonna have to learn stick. Joy. I already hate driving, but love cars. What's wrong with me? MMmmm, but I'm gonna love bending over that hood. He did a lot of work on it to upkeep so it's in good condition. But the fan blew out on his way to my place. Figures. So I'm gonna go out in the next couple of days to see if its the actual fan or the wiring. But, no biggie. Easy fix. Looking forward to it.

Wow, that was a lot of typing. And somewhere along the way the french accent disappeared from my head. Lol. I'll sign off for now. I bought a book about sushi the other day. So, Sayonara! <3

Its a Miracle!

Omg! Its a miracle! Payday came four days early and its nice and big with over time and holiday pay.

A Test

This is a test entry. I'm trying to post a entry from my phone. It is a blackberry and my husband tells me that is what technology is for.

I really don't have anything to write about.

I just finished watching The Duchess with Keira Knightly. I rather liked it. I wasn't sure it was my thing but I tend to like her movies. Historic movies set in that era do make me miss my violin terribly. I miss music. I felt so sour the other day when my mother told me she bought a piano. I miss creating music so much.

Today's Thoughts

So, I feel very thoughtful today. But I must have a wire loose or something because I can't seem to stick on a single thought for long. This doesn't surprise me though.

Feeling of today. I'm not quite sure. I feel not really down, but more mellow. And no real desire to do anything today. Not really the desire to be lazy. But I can't think of anything to do. My hubby has left for work and I decided to get on the computer so I could at least listen to music.

Weather is nice today. Kinda cold, but not a lot of wind so it's comfortable to be outside for a little bit.

Done with talking about the weather . . .

Actually, I'm so bored, I think I will write out this months expenses in my little bill organizer. That's gotta be bored. But I like numbers, so it gives me something to do. Payday is Monday so I usually leave it til payday, but I guess if I do it now I have more time to shop then. I'll perhaps need it since I've decided to drive across town to the other Walmart. I think its nicer. Maybe I'll even go to Target. I like Target. So much nicer and cleaner. I liked working there. That was like, oh, two years ago I think. Maybe.

Anyways, I've ran out of things to say now. Oh wait!

I thought of something. I tried a new recipe last night. I was gonna take a picture to post, but my batteries died in my camera. Stupid technology. I made chinese fried rice and chicken terriyaki. It was very good. Made many servings with very little ingredients. Very budget friendly. Quite quick too. Well it would have been faster if I had a bigger rice maker. It's only a 3-cup maker. I would get a bigger one but I don't think I have room in my cupbards for it.

Now that's it.

I'm listening to Lifescapes Relaxing Orient.

And here is my picture for the day. <3

Thoughts for today

Well, I think I'm finally over that cold. Good riddance. All that's left is a deep pain in my chest. Probably from all the hacking.

So, anyways, thoughts for today. I was laying in bed last night and couldn't sleep cuz I had all these thoughts running around inside my head. I thought about getting up and blogging them to release them but I was on the inside of the bed and I didn't want to wake hubby. So, I'll try venting now and hope that will help me sleep tonight cuz I have to get up early tomorrow and help mom move. I'm glad she got her new house.

So, my thoughts were these. I was thinking about my upcoming "health kick". My husband and I have been discussing weight loss methods. That's actually why I started this blog. I read an article about people having more success with weightloss because they maintained a blog. -- We were discussing different diet methods and not coming up with a lot of options. My husband loves food, and I love to make food. Cooking is such a fun and exciting hobby of mine. I don't like sweets, so it's not like I can cut deserts out of my menu. I love fruits and vegetables, but they are so expensive. And I'm always worried about eating them quickly before they go bad. My husband always fights me whenever I try to get him to eat some vegies. He's just a meat and potatoes guy.

I've already stopped drinking soda. Which I must say was a very hard thing to do. And I still get insane cravings. But now in replacement of soda, I'm obsessed with sweet tea. Red Diamond brand actually. Which I think is at least a little bit healthier.

I also plan to buy a bike. But I'm torn between to. I nice cruisor or a trike. Both have great review. Not that different in price. They both have positives and negatives. They both have a high upright rating for back support. The trike needs to be eased around turns, but the bike doesn't have the balance support of the trike. I'm unsure of which to choose.

And since I don't have any friends I don't have anyone to ask besides my hubby. And all he says is that it is my decission about what I want. But I don't know.

Anyways, got off topic. I was discussing about my diet thoughts. I'm not the type of person that will eat only water and veggies to become thin. I hate that. I think its stupid and ridiculous. We only have a limited time on this world with the people we love. And I don't want to regret wasting all my time and happiness on torturing myself. If I die at a young age, or my husband dies at a young age, by some horrible accident, or some medical condition we couldn't help, I would be so mad that I had wasted so much time in the gym, or making myself sick on gross unfulfilling foods then being happy with my husband and life. I'm the type of person that would rather live life happy now than to regret it later.

I already have a lot to regret in my past for letting myself be pushed around and unhappy. So I want to step into the sunshing (figure of speaking) and embrace life. Not let problems hold me down. And not care what people of the world think of me. I am me. And they can't tell me who I am.

Saying Hello

This is my first official blog post. I am starting a blog for severally reasons. One is to find a way to speak my mind. I am a very shy person and don't have any friends. I love making new friends, its just I have a problem with voicing my opinions out loud. I find it easier to type.

The second reason I am starting a blog is to help me chronolize my life. I have a memory problem where I forget. I forget a lot. And I fear I will forget all my life and loose every happy memory. So I want to make it a point to keep a diary of sorts. Not a lot happens to me. But what little that does should still be cherished.

The third reason, is that I read an article about people who have kept a blog while they were working to loose weight. I am overweight and I know I may need a little something to make sure I keep trying and not give up. I am hoping this blog will help me to voice the opinions I would normally keep to myself and to keep faith.

So hear it goes. Turning Whispers Into Songs. I am going to try to step out of the shadows and reach towards the sun. 

I will also post pictures to represent a little of how I am feeling.
