Things I Have Learned From Living With My Boyfriend

1. Everyone really does poop. That fact does not make it less embarrassing. (Though there is someone there to bring you toilet paper)
2. There are probably a lot of friends out there worried that their girl is being abused based on dark, ugly bruises all over her body--in fact, she is just being elbowed in the middle of the night by the man sharing her bed.
3. Alone time doesn't compare to together time when the sun is streaming through the window on a saturday morning and the whole family is in bed.
4. "Clean" is a word with varying definitions.
5. "level" (as in pictures on the wall) is also a word with varying definitions.
6. Cooking is a lot less of a hassle when someone thanks you for the meal.
7. Dry erase boards are the epitome of communications technology.
8. Butter, milk, chicken, and garlic will never NOT be on the grocery list.
9. Dogs are a really good preview for children. But so far I think I might make a good mother. In fact, I think we might make good parents. If we can perfect the potty schedule.
10. That xbox thingy is not nearly as scary as I used to think.


Well. Color me happy. I have a roommate and a boyfriend.

Zumba Night!

Okay, so, I haven't updated my blog about my weight loss every Tuesday night like I planned. But I am proud to report that not only have I continued to go to the gym at least thrice a week, I even convinced N to join it with me! The exercise thing is going a lot better. Today I even looked at myself in the mirror while I was zumba-ing! I don't think that I will ever be the kind of person who loves, loves, loves going to the gym, it does feel kind of good, kind of virtuous to get all sweaty and be able to tweet, "I am at the gym doing zumba!" For those of you who don't know, Zumba is the new fitness craze. I guess if you were to totally simplify things you would call it a type of aerobic class, but it is really so non-aerobic-y. There is not a lot of pumping, or jumping. It is 100% dancing. A little bit of salsa, a little bit of hip-hop, and tonight, even a little bit of ballet. It gets the heart rate waaaay up, and I always end up drenched in sweat, and best of ...

Juice Fast: DayThree

The scale told me this morning that I have lost seven pounds. I also woke up this morning with a massive headache: the kind of headache that only massive amounts of water, a few hours extra sleep, and a good dose of extra-strength Advil could cure. So, ups and downs.  The hardest part of this whole thing continues to be eating at all. When I think about having to juice fruits and vegetables, I decided to just skip the whole thing because the idea of drinking another meal is so desperately unappealing. Norris is very against this. I think eventually he is going to pinch my nose and pour juice down my throat to make sure that I am consuming an appropriate amount of calories to keep my system running. I think I am getting better at the actual juicing part though. Tonight for dinner I made a juice containing kiwis, apples, celery, kale, lemon, ginger, and cucumber. It is totally green, but definitely the best tasting vegetable based juice that I have made so far. I think it will de...
