Two weeks ago I went to my very fist of the Iraqi war protests. I was a bit nervous becuase it was the wednesday after memorial day weekend in a conservative town and a conservative state but in the end we had an overwhelming amount of positive back-up from people not protesting.

To be exact there were only two instances I can remember that someone actually did anything remoted offensive becuase of our presence at all. One of which had been some backwards fuck screaming from his truck that “All you damned hippies are going to hell”. I found That particular statement exceptionally ironic….I mean I may not be a christian however, I am familiar enough with the religion to know “Thou shalt kill” means just that….

Anyway, I’m rambling. My point is, that I FINALLY made a point to walk down and support my beliefs with more than just words and it felt great. I can’t wait until next wednesday so that I can do it again.

Well, I more or less stopped doing ANY of these goals for the last week or two when I started a new part-time job in the food industry. Needless to say this goal has been one of the many hat I have forgotten about and being that I get free soda at work I have actually started drinking more.

In the last week of drinking whatever pop I wanted (and not exercising) I have gained about five punds and my picture perfect mid-section is starting to get that bottom heavy post children curve….it’s not terrible but it’s enough to make me realize how much I’d rather just have water at work and at home.

So, I have not had a soda today and I plan to not have one by the time I go to bed tonight.

I look great and (for the most part) I love my body but I have NEVER owned a swimsuit that I truly loved. I’ve always been stuck with Flower print bikini’s or just plain black. So, this year I want to find the perfect suit something that’s fun and sexy and really makes me want to go swim.
