3 things thursday
1. went to see sex and the city last night! had a great time w/friends and the movie wasn't bad either. i expected a lot more in the movie, but i guess as always my expectations were too high. the movie is really funny though, definitely a must see. i would go in depth about it, but i think i'll wait until more people see the film.
2. woohoo! for 3 day weekends! so excited to spend time w/my honey this weekend. hopefully we'll go to houston for a little getaway. this week has really worn me out! is today really only thursday?
3. looking forward to crawling into bed this evening. that's all.

alls well that ends well
so, this morning wasn't one of the bests. attorney after attorney kept coming into my office annoying me more than the last. i swear i thought i was on an episode of "boiling point." the only thing that kept me going was knowing i had a yoga class during the lunch hour and i knew that would calm me down. i knew once i got there my mind would be clear.
...and that is how my class began. but further into the class i began to get hungry--then i remembered i didn't bring my lunch to work--then i decided i'd leave class early to have enough time to pick something up--then i thought about where i would go--then i remembered a coupon i had from one of my favorite restaurants downtown, sip--bingo! with every bit of excitement, i began rolling up my mat as quietly as i could trying oh so hard not to disturb anybody. then i grabbed my towel, my water bottle....and uh-oh, there goes my water bottle! water all over the floor! i am mortified! i quickly cleaned up the mess and tried to get out of there as fast as i could!
i make it to sip and order, what i always order, an oven roasted breast of turkey, artichoke parmesan spread and baby spinach panini w/a side salad. it was yummy...even better because it was only $4 compared to the $7 it usually is!
this afternoon is much better. i am able to laugh off my morning and look forward to sex and the city 2! going to an advance screening tonight...a whole 2 hours earlier than the midnight showing :) even so, i'm looking forward to it just the same! lord knows i need a cocktail after this day!

i'm baaaack....
so last night, a couple friends and i got together for a raw potluck and to watch SIMPLY RAW: Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days. i was very impressed w/this movie as it is evidence that diabettes IS cureable. there are so many positive effects to eating raw and i keep being drawn back into it...but i also shy away from it when it gets to be too redundant. i keep eating the same foods and get tired of them easily or keep craving fast food, sugars or anything else that comes along! i love food and want to find a balance between the two them. so once again i am going to challenge myself to eat better.
while i've been away, i also signed up for the rock n roll san antonio marathon in november. i think eating right and training for a marathon will hold me accountable. so let's see what these next few days will bring!
