So i pretty much did, told him I had a crush on him and asked him to hang out and he keeps texting me and everything, but won’t do anything with me.
I don’t know if he’s too shy to actually hang out with me, or if he’s not interested, but likes the attention.
Meh, oh well. At least i don’t work with him anymore, so that’s not an issue. Even if i embarrass myself, I don’t HAVE to see him again.
means new friends, i’ve made at least 2 and am getting to know some more. Plus my roommate and i have become pretty close, so that’s at least 3 more friends to add to my collection.
I put in an application, just one though. I feel like with all the stuff I got goin on I don’t even have time to look for a job. Oh well, everyone’s hiring seasonal soon, so the chances of one just falling in my lap are growing slightly. : )
I moved out about 2 weeks ago but I don’t have internet, so I couldn’t share!! We have an apartment and things are GREAT! : )
I have a roommate.
There’s a place.
I have a co-signer.
They just have to run credit checks.
I’m packing today.
We find out Wednesday. If approved, we move in Friday.
a roommate!! We just need an apartment. We’re thinking move out in September or October
So yesterday was like the most amazing day ever! Well, it was pretty good any way. It started with a phone call from my friend. I had asked her if she would consider being roommates, because we both need to move out. At first she said yes, but I told her she should think about it. She decided I was right. said she was going on a trip, and she’d call me when she got back into town with her answer. That was over a week ago and I was so anxious to here back cuz we’d be awesome roommates and I really need one. Anyway, she called me from Puerto Rico to tell me yes, yes, yes!! Sweet!
That was the first thing, then I got out of bed and weighed myself like I do every morning and I’ve lost 26 pounds! That’s pretty damn exciting.
It was a gorgeous day, so I lounged around outside reading. Then I went to work. It was busy so that was tiring, but I like when it’s busy, makes the time go by. Anyway it had started to slow down after 8pm. I was helping this new guy at express teaching him some things and flirting, and he was flirting back a bit. This guy came up with some roses that were on sale. The customer was telling the new guy he should buy some for his mom, girlfriend, etc. So I was like yeah, you should buy some for me. And the customer was like yeah, or co-workers. So while I was wrapping his roses, the customer went and bought another one. I asked if he wanted that one wrapped, too and he said, no, this one’s for you. Awww. It was really sweet. A lot of times that is creepy, but it wasn’t at all.
So then I went home, got online, checked e-mail, 43things, and a date site I had joined the day before. This guy imed me and we started talkng. He was really nice and sweet and funny. We hit it off a bit. He gave me his number, so I might text him later. I don’t think I could talk on the phone with him without meeting him. Oh he lives over an hour away, though. It’s not a deal breaker, but I was just hoping for something casual with the dating site. Where’d it’d be easy and the guy would be local. For instance, this guy had the day off today, so did I. Where he close by, I would have asked him to meet for coffee today. Oh well. We’ll see where it goes.
So pretty good day! I never would have had the confidence to do that stuff before. I’m actually willing to believe guys are interested in me. I’m finally losing weight and that makes me happy, but I know I don’t HAVE to lose weight to be beautiful. Today was a giant leap!
P.s. I didn’t blush when that guy gave me the flower, either. I was pretty proud of that. I always blush when someone flirts with me or a guy gives me something.
Today. I think it went fairly well, i guess we’ll just have to see if they find someone better. They liked me, though. : )
Had an interview today, it went alright, they seemed very unimpressed with my availability, but I told them I’d work with them on the weekends and I’d be there Mondays and Wednesdays.
Quit about 5 months ago and I’ve stayed clean ever since. It had a ridiculously disgusting hold over me, and I’m SO glad I’m over it. I still get urges, but I fight them.
Every once in a while I need a picture (like for 43Things) and I go on, accept all my friend requests, and check out the pics, that’s all, I don’t even check my wall, I’m pretty proud, especially since almost every person I know is FINALLY on there. Who really needs 600 cyber friends anyway? So glad I kicked it!!
Oh and I have so much more FREE time!! Yay me!
I bought the iPod and it is AWESOME!! I’m going to work harder now and my next ‘reward’ for my loss will be smaller and the goal will be more achievable. I’ve learned my lesson
I don’t want to jinx anything, but I think I found a roommate! We still have lots of stuff to figure out, but it’s starting to sound really good… : )
I’m getting my hopes up, though, and I need to stop
I didn’t lose the weight. I lost one pound, and I am very disappointed. I didn’t weigh myself the whole time, apparently a bad idea, because I had no idea how poorly I was doing.
On the other hand (and I’m not trying to make excuses) I work out a lot, so I think I’ve gained a lot of muscle (which weighs MORE than fat). I’m pretty sure this is a factor, not only because I exercise, but because yesterday, I lost yet ANOTHER notch on my belt (that makes 2, but still exciting) and I’m wearing a t-shirt right now that I haven’t worn in at least 6 months, and it’s loose on me.
So, that being said (and excuses being laid down) I’m still going to get my iPod. It just really won’t be as sweet, because I’m still disappointed in myself. But I need that iPod man, I actually dread walking the dog cuz I have no music to listen to!
So I hope no one now will look down on me, I’m going to work super hard and I’ll come up with a new goal, and hopefully meet that goal.
I work with this guy. And I have a crush on him, clearly. I should probably not get involved with anyone from work, but a) I rarely see him and b) I might be changing stores soon (like within the next month) and if that’s the case, we don’t work together, so…
Anyway, he’s really really shy and while I think he might like me, too, I’m afraid asking him flat out might scare him off. If he weren’t so shy, I’d have asked him to parties and stuff already.
Oh, one more reason to not ask him, he’s a manager. I am not, he’s technically my boss, but we’re the same as when we were co-workers. But he has the power to fire me. I don’t think he ever would, but there’s that.
Then there’s this other guy… I work with him, too… but he’s… young. Only 2 years younger, but at this age is a little severe. Plus I don’t usually like younger guys. He reminds me of my ex, though, kinda looks like him. (That’s a little sick, then isn’t it?)
He’s cute, though. And you can tell he’s smart, he picks up on things really fast. He’s super quiet, though. He usually never talks unless you ask him a question first, but today he saw me and his face visibly lit up and he asked how I was doing. THAT gave me butterflies.
Gah, I need to meet people outside of work. I’m only 20, though and I can’t really go out, plus I’m so awkward and insecure when it comes to dating. Every other aspect of my life, I’m confident and loud and I joke around and have lots of friends.
I need confidence. This goal should be “become confident with self”
...to set up a goal.
On July 7, 2008, I will have been doing this diet thing for 2 months. If on July 7th, I have lost 25 pounds (I’m around 19 today), I’m gonna buy myself a new iPod.
My old one is about 3 years old and barely works. The hold button sticks often, so I can’t change it. The back button (to go back a song) doesn’t work at all, and the forward button is going out, too. Plus it’s a nano, only two gigs. Modern ones are up to 8 now, but I know it’ll change next month.
Anyway, I take my iPod on my daily walks and it’s the best ‘reward’ I can think of for myself, so I’m gonna do it.
So now I gotta work hard to maintain and lose weight hardxcore for a few days, but it’s the boost I need.
Wish me luck, kids!
18 pounds.
I feel kind of guilty, though. I follow a lot of the books advice, but I stopped writing. I think ‘ll end up starting again, I’m just having a hard time getting anything done (all the more reason, I know), but everything’s so overwhelming, I feel like I’m barely hanging in there.
I still follow all the rules I set up for myself and I’m still slowly losing weight, I just can’t do the writing right now and considering it’s called the writing diet, I feel guilty. Oh well, it’s my own commitment, it’s not like I’m letting other people down, AND I’m still losing weight. Still I know better and I know I need to follow through better.
but we’re awesome. We go everyday unless it’s raining or I have to work at 7 or 8am (which is rare). We rock
