10:55 pm	train wreck has she not learned that one should not sing on stage drunk, wait rather lip sync. You have to admit MTV is ingenious for having her perform, the whole world tuned to see her fail which of course she did and if she was actually going to be good then they would of been the first to air it. Well Britney maybe you should take a clue from Amy Winehouse... REHAB. Also, clothes are not optional...... oh britney..... seriously.... (3 Comments |Comment on this)

5:42 pm	procrastination 101 standard sunday to do list includes: clean apartment, laundry, read, apply for jobs and work out. it is now 5:45 and not a single one of these has been accomplished rather the list includes reading the current issue of OK magazine cover to cover including starting the crossword puzzle in the back, reading the Seattle Times online and discovering the perfect job for myself, oh and finding three jobs at Nordies to apply for, but can't because I need a PC to do so. I am smitten with a new column in the Seattle Times, The Girl About Town- it's celebrity sightings, fundraisers and parties, all wrapped up in a fun weekly column. I have now officially read every column this past year- versed with the knowledge that Karen (Megan Mullaly) from Will & Grace dined at Lola last week, the best fundraiser for young twenty somethings to meet other young eligible single professionals, the new Barney's store has an open staircase (I still have not been, I may have to go try on shoes- that would be a delightfully free activity, but I would have to abstain from purchasing) and a multitude of useless facts about Seattle socialites. Over 15 columns later, I started thinking, what a fabulous job, she gets to attend fantastic parties, openings, fundraising events, meet celebrities and much more for work, sounds perfect to me, sign me up. Seriously, ok, I'm not a journalist, but I love this kind of stuff. I am tempted to e-mail her and find out how she got this as a job. I don't have much money, however can I live vicariously through the rich of the city? I need a hobby, although this is sort of shallow and reminiscent of Holly Golightly, I think starting to learn the who's who of the city- keeping notes would be sort of fun. Spend time at Barneys/Marios- take note of the people I see and the latest styles. So in the words of Miranda Priestly, that's all. It is time for me to be a domestic goddess. (Comment on this)

3:17 pm	holly golightly how i love thee!!!! my all time favorite movie got rescheduled so tonight I can go see Breakfast at Tiffany's at Lake Union. My day just got 10 times better. And I am celebrating my French heritage cause it's Bastile Day. I realized this morning in the most unfortunate way that my spending this past week was too much time to go back to checking my acccount more often and spending less. life all of the sudden got busy. there are now three burners lit in my life. i am ready to turn one off though right now- one more chance on his part. Nothing has happened at work, still waiting for that raise, I'm hoping August 1 will bring good things. It's beautiful out but I want to stay inside in my apartment hole. It is soo nice to have time at home, I need to remember to schedule more home time now that my life is busier. (Comment on this)

11:34 am	i'm bored.... i should go to the gym, i haven't been since Tuesday. I have to get my butt down to Tacoma soon. I think my laundry is done. I guess I should switch it out. Life is too mundane. I need more excitement. I am craving change again. (Comment on this)

9:56 am	California Here I Come! I know I haven't updated since my trip- somehow life has been busy! California was incredible. Seeing friends was great and I realized even though my parents are gone from the state, lots of people I care about are not- I have to get down there at least once a year. Highlights include beer pong with Corine, lunch at Aqui sitting outside when it was like 80, Cyn's wedding (did I mention condoms in the bathroom and the recessional was the muppets song), gettting drunk with Sam, my trip to Lodi (I was a Lodi virgin before), seeing Sam's mom and getting a hug before Sam!, helping Sam with wedding dresses, In N Out and the drive. I didn't expect to enjoy the drive, but I was surprised- I had a really good time- I felt at peace with the world- it's really hard to describe the feeling. As a co-worker recently said to me, it's a spiritual experience- I'm not going to lie- I felt really connected with the earth, enjoying Mother Nature's glory. Mt. Shasta and Crater lake are incredible, I really wish I had time to get out an enjoy them, but it was more of a look but don't touch. Doing this drive, made me realize that I want to do more roadtrips- discover other parts of the country. I wish we had more vacation in the US like Europe, so that we actually have time to realx and learn more about the world or different cultures. I've made a pact with myself to start saving more for travel. I'm going to start going on a trip every few months even if it is a weekend trip because travel is so essential to my soul and well being, I can't live without it as I have been. Coming back from CA was hard, but I was able to quickly get back into my routine. Working out has been going really well. I've made a commitment to it and the results are showing. When I exercise I feel more motivated to eat healthy/less. I have to say I'm feeling much healthier and the energy level has increased. I guess Elle Woods was right, exercise makes you happy, gotta love those endorphins! I went to Pilates on Friday- man oh man, I'm still sore, but that means I really worked those muscles- funny enough I could actually feel my core doing it's thing- I think I may actually have some stomach muscles! I'm on track to be at my pre-college weight by the end of June and hopefully to my goal weight by the end of the year, possibly even Thanksgiving. I'm seeing subtle differences in various areas and I can tell my tummy is smaller- believe me, that's a good thing. Speaking of which, I gotta get to the gym because Mother is coming up for Easter. I think the weather is actually cooperating so we may be able to do our picnic- I might even convince her to go paddle boating at Greenlake with me! For those of you who celebrate Easter- have a good one! Current Mood: chipper (Comment on this)

10:59 am	i'm tired. i didn't fall asleep to almost two last night. the gym was incredible, my heart was pounding- almost too much, too intense. i'm tired of all the bullshit- the crap- home, work and just life in general. ..... now, trying to make it through the day.......

6:47 pm	spring has come? time to bring the boys in the yard! Today made a surprising twist. Woke up around 10 so I could get an appointment with this lady at Deluxe in Phinney Ridge to get my hair cut and highlighted- had that appointment at noon. She did an ok job, no one else has seen it yet to critique it. Highlights turned out a little bit lighter than I thought they would- less red more gold, but that's ok. Haircut seems decent. So here's my issue with the place- she didn't really style my hair. Just blow dried it like I would at home- not sections so it look at shiny, full and bouncy like a normal salon. I like that. I like feeling like my hair could be in a magazine. So it's hard for me to judge. I really like my old girl in Tacoma, she was about the same price, but I think way better. The jury is still out. I don't think I'd go back though- again don't want to sound negative, but I want the salon experience, I don't need Gene Juarez with tea and robes, but I want my hair style and I want to feel like a million bucks for at least a few hours! Regardless, it's better than before- a bit shorter but still nice and long plus the color is better. Came home- finished up some laundry/e-mails. Was starting to feel sorry for myself cause I hadn't lost weight this week and then said, I am going to the gym. Got up and went. I found out they have a Friday Pilate's mat class- I am sooo going to start going. It's at 5:30, so I'll really have to leave work on time, but that's a good thing- and honestly, when I do have plans for happy hour so I can do this. I loved pilates. Not quite sure why I didn't realize they had this before-- maybe it's the blond in me :) So I did a full 40 mins on the bike plus weights. But here's the good part... I had seen this really hot guy there before last Weds- smelled really good- you know that fresh boy smell. Well anyways, last time he had a Santa Clara t-shirt- this time he walks in with a Georgetown medicine and a Giant's t-shirt... ding ding goes my head- Doctor? Catholic? From the Bay Area. I swear I caught him looking my way a couple of times, but that could be because I was look at him. So hopefully I'll see him again and yes, more inspiration to go... desperado I know, but hey at least he's good eye candy! And who knows maybe I'll actually talk to him...... Now that I'm feeling inspired I am going to make cookies! gotta love baking for others and not eating them :) Seriously it's what I do, sad but true. No new Desperate till next weekend and I'll be gone!!!! Current Mood: chipper (Comment on this)

8:29 pm	another good weekend! now if only the weather would improve I had a really good weekend. A friend was visiting from out of town, so I played host. Lots of drinks were consumed and way too much food. I got to do girl stuff, which I haven't had time nor someone to do this stuff with in awhile- we got manicures and I got my eyebrows waxed (after being scolded by the little asian lady for being too bushy, nothing like honesty for ya!) and went shopping. I found some really cute stuff at this new division of Gap called fourth and towne- new jeans, brown moc-croac flats, a cream silk blouse and black tank. Plus new yoga pants/camisoles at old navy. Overall a pretty successful shopping trip- gotta love tax refunds! Had a good St. Patty's day in Tacoma, unlike previous years being stuck at BSA events, I actually got to celebrate for once since the one in Vegas my senior year (sans drunk old man hitting on me!). It was really nice to just have fun and spend time with a friend. Sunday we went wine tasting in Woodinville, which is always enjoyable and the weather was fantastic to boot. I really could get married at Chateau St. Michelle- it's soo beautiful- I love how I scope out potential wedding spots before there's even a groom- I guess that's the plight of every girl. We even managed to have a traditional St. Patty's day dinner- it only took about 4 hours LOL. This little weekend of fun did mean that I didn't get to the gym so I had to work that much harder yesterday. No pounds lost, but none gained which is ok. I have about 10 more to lose before the wedding which is about three weeks away... ahhhhh must get back on track! I didn't go tonight because I'm feeling naseous from lunch... I know bad Lorraine. I'm not sure I get this whole not really spring weather. i want warm weather. Although, I'm not quite sure I'm ready for summer attire, however with a few more months of dedication it might very well be a possibility! I hate to sound focused on this, but it's been such a challenge and i have to keep it at the forefront of my mind in order to make my dream a reality. On a funny side note, I saw something about a Boy Scout this am when logging into yahoo, I felt compelled to check it- like what council was it etc, I figured if it was my old one I would of found out. you can leave the organization, but a part of it will always linger.... (note cheesy camp song playing in the background of my head). Ok, well I am going to change into comfy clothes and get started on dinner... beans and everything cause now it's all about the fiber and flax seed! LOL. I'm thinking a movie sounds perfect.

7:27 pm	Music and ipod! o I finally broke down and bought a new ipod. I got the uber cute red nano. I figure it's about time since I need one for the gym- seriously it's an essential plus with the road trip down to Cali, i'll need something to get me through the baren parts of OR and central CA. So here's a question for you peeps- who is your current favorite artists for the gym and for car rides? I of course have the requisite Pussycat dolls, JT, Britney (pre-crazyness), Mariah, 50 Cent, Kenny Chesney etc for the gym- but I'd like to add a couple of new ones to keep me going. Also, that goes that same in general for car music- I have the basic Fleetwood Mac, Snow Patrol, Decemberists, Martina McBride, Neko Case, Kelly Hogan etc, but I want some new artists to fall in love with. Any suggestions? What artist do you find yourself listening to frequently? (3 Comments |Comment on this)

9:49 pm	exercise=happiness Finally went back to the gym after battling the Seattle plague for over a month and oh my god was it awesome. I spent a solid 40 minutes on the bike. I think I am going to get an ipod for the gym plus I'll need it for my road trip to CA. I'm thinking a Nano would be good although certain people think I should get a shuffle since I tend to break things. I'd like to have a screen though to know what's playing. Maybe this weekend I'll head to the Apple store. The red ones are just sooo cute :) Anyways back to the work out, I am going to do this. Sam and I have a plan, there are even charts- I am going to get to my goal weight. I'm about 25lbs less than I was last August, which is a good start, but not enough. I'd like to be at my pre-college weight and then even less. This was seriously one of the best work outs ever- I was really sweatin- I'm guessing it's because I'm actually drinking water- I know bad Lorraine not drinking enough water. I'm trying to make it a part of my routine. Plus had a kick-ass healthy salad when I got home. I'm starting to really look forward to this wedding I'm going to at the end of the month. I still need to figure out specifics with friends etc. It will be weird to be in my old state- I haven't been there since 2004- almost 3 years..eek! Last time I was there was for just a weekend- I guess I haven't called the bay area home for quite some time. Although I am excited to see friends plus I have some awesome tables that I'm picking up that my grandmother gave to me- they have always been my favorite and remind me of growing up. I'm kinda honored that she gave them to me since they are kinda expensive and she actually thought enough to give them to me (she has a tendency to sell "antiques"). I think they'll go quite nicely in my room and I won't have to use the ghetto hamper anymore. Almost time for my favorite OC housewives :) (Comment on this)

7:14 pm	trips and friends- they are good things! I promise this will be a positive entry, but first i need to vent. I am tired of being sick. The first cold lasted over a week, but luckily seemed to have been better by time I left for my trip. I had a weekend of being sick free, but oh no, i had to wake up Monday morning with a cough that sounds like I am coughing up a lung literally. The sore throat is gone, but head is again filled with mucus and my ears feel clogged. I probably have a mild fever, but of course I went into work cause I can't afford to be sick. I haven't done any social since I've come back and today I've rested all day hoping that it will help. I also have a weird cold sore thing on the roof of my mouth that hurts. Me being the hypochondriac (note the blood clot phase of 2004) that I am, I am convinced it is much worse than it is even though it doesn't resemble anything in the pictures, which are always much worse. I'm sure it will heal and all will be fine, but my OCD brain is convinced otherwise. Regardless of the Seattle plague, I had a really good trip to Austin and Denver. Ursula and I of course started drinking the minute I got there. It was funny cause Don made coffee Saturday morning (gotta love men who make me coffee in the morning!) and I thought he was joking by saying "want some Baileys," so of course i said, yes, cause that's just how we are. Don hand's the coffee to me and is like if you want more Bailey's let me know! Austin is such a beautiful city. I fell in love with the Texas star. We went to the mothership Whole Paycheck in downtown Austin- OMG OMG OMG- it is humongous, seriously people, wine and beer tasting bars, a refrigerated beer alley, barbecue station with more beer on tap, a chocolate fondue fountain and more food stations that one could imagine. It's their corporate center with a restaurant, culinary institute and so much more. Seriously, this store made my toes curl. We of course had amazing barbeque at Rudy's Barbeque It was hard to leave Austin and the Logans, but I know I'll have to visit soon because there is so much on the horizen. Denver was a blast. It was good to see everyone, especially Jess, Kate and Karlen (which was way too short!). I got to see the Real World house, yes, I'm a dork and even took pictures..... Had a night of great drunken debauchery that included pool and flirting with the bartender. Note to self, when he suggest Jameson as his favorite shot, remember previous times that included copious amounts of whiskey and bourbon and just say no... I did have my first ever irish car bomb and our flirting did score us some free drinks :) Thanks again to Jess, who had to deal with our drunken antics and the hangover the next morning, which included watching the Devil Wears Prada! How I love that movie. I did manage to steal that author's new book from Jess. Then we headed to Fort Collins with a stop outside of Greeley (ahh, who can forget the lovely aroma of cow, you think the Tacoma aroma is bad, you've smelled nothing!). Found some really cute shirts at Banana and Anne Taylor Loft and finally a new pair of jeans at J.Jill! Still have some more clothes that I need, but I want to drop another size before I get more pants. Today has been really good, even though the majority was spent on the couch. I've reconnected with some old friends, started to plan a trip to California for Cyn's wedding and really rested so that I'll hopefully be better by Monday. I'm really happy to re-connect with on friend in particular and I really hope we don't let as much time lapse as we have. It's so hard with being in a different state, but really with all of our technology it shouldn't be that hard! Now, I've got to request the time off from work and figure out driving down. I really don't want to drive alone, so I'm hoping I can convince Mary to tag along for the drive. No big plans for tonight unless you count reading my book and maybe a date with a chick flick :) I might rent Little Miss Sunshine on the tv since it's supposed to be very good.

4:26 pm	posted this to myspace earlier, but forgot to add it to LJ... Impeding Goodness? Just finished a meal at Azteca with family friends or really ass-techa because I always feel nauseous after eating there. Plus our friend is on like super-speed (or rather 15 cups of coffee a day) so it can be exhausting, although I really do cherish how well they've treated me and I know that If I ever needed anything Mary would be there in a heartbeat. I have what Blaire has coined the Seattle plague or rather a lovely cold since Wednesday. It's getting better and I just want it to be gone by the time I leave on Friday am (how i love 7am flights, thank god for dussert being willing to wake up uber early!). On a side note related to Blaire, I swear I saw a former co-worker who lets just say has a very alternative lifestyle at the Thai restaurant the other night. I tried to figure out if it was her, but couldn't tell. I never know what to do in those situations when you think it's someone, but you aren't sure and you don't want to stare. Anyways, I am really looking forward to a vacation. I haven't had a true vacation thats really for me in a long time. Trips always seem to involve family, work or some "obligation," that is much more stressful than just fun. I'm really looking forward to both parts Austin & Denver. I've never been to Austin nor Texas really, unless you count the airport and a week in the middle of no-where at a hotel for training except for one night in Fort Worth. Plus Austin is supposed to be one of the hottest party cities- yes it is time to put on my drinking hat!!! And then Denver to see some really good friends, I've missed my Jess! I'm promised a night of partying including at Monarch (ok, I'm a Real World Denver junkie now....). Now if only Alex were there, life would be complete. I've lost a little weight which feels awesome, although I didn't do so well this week although none was gained- I can blame being sick since I didn't get to go to the gym. I need to get an ipod shuffle which will make the time go by quicker- really it would be just for the gym since I don't drive all that much anymore. Speaking of gas, I am really shocked sometimes by the cars we drive. Like tonight on our way home from Southcenter, this MASSIVE Escalade truck thing pulls up next to us and then tonight parked in front of the house is this huge ass truck that seriously would engulf any normal car. I still haven't started Kite Runner and this book club meeting is Tuesday... I guess I have a bit of reading to do seeing that I really want to do this. I need some academic/intellectual stimulation in my life otherwise my brain is going to to turn to mush. I try to read a part of the NYTimes daily, but I wonder how much intellectual stimulation i really give myself. Plus after taking a class in aging, I know how important staying engaged throughout your life is since it contributes to your likelihood of developing dimentia. I really wonder how much all of these things we do contribute to a longer healthier life? I take (or rather attempt to) vitiammins daily, eat fruits/veggies, o-mega 3s, moisturize with spf15 and all sorts of measure to stay "young," yet the ironic part is that when we are young all we want to do is get older. I guess I'm in that magic youthful stage of my life or rather "my prime," although I really don't feel that way. When do you figure life or rather when do things click? It seems that everyone around me is in this weird transitional state that they aren't sure where they belong or what they should be doing. When does this whole thing called self-discovery come to a close? I'm supposedly reaching my sexual prime soon, yet I'm not quite sure I have that figured out yet. Sexuality stills seems to be this elusive thing that we figure out when new chapters open and then we move on. It's funny, sometimes when BH licks Neko's butt, she quivers but then runs away- I tend to identify with that all too well- I runaway sometimes just because I'm scared of the outcome. When do we stop running away from the things that scare us and just face the reality? Or do we live life constantly running taking "breaks" just for a little bit of ciarity? I think over-analyze too much and just need to do things rather than think too much. I might go out tonight, but part of me would just rather stay home and watch a movie. It's another case of thinking more than doing. I'm still sick so I should stay home, so I really get better, however I have friends who are up here, so I should be social since I complain about too many Saturday nights being bored. People say you live in city but you are stuck in QA half the time and it's true. My life mostly consists of work and home with spurts of going out. There's so much of the city I haven't discovered, but I like to stay in my safe zone. Ok, cute cat moment, she found her ball and she's bringing it to me so we can play catch- she totally loves her ball, it's so adorable. enough of this stream of consciousness...

6:54 pm	exhausted but not sure why? All of the sudden I'm feeling tired. Sometimes I feel like I have too much time, but there are a million things I could/should be doing- clean, go to the gym, read, watch a movie, call an old friend or just hang out. Yet, my mind obsesses about things that aren't it's worry or dwells on things that are from the past. I try to push away my type A personality, but it always trys to come out and goes nuts when others around me don't want to plan in advance or don't feel the need to scrutinize the details. I'm really ready to get away. Only two weeks till Austin/Denver. I spent too much this weekend, I've been trying to save for the trip so I have extra spending money to just have a good time and not really worry about money. Plus I have a fatty tax refund that I'm planning on getting soon!!! Recently I've become addicted to the Real Housewives of Orange County, I didn't realize people were so shallow- one of the great lines was "I vote Republican because my parents were Republican. I don't really know what that means." Hello, how can you just be so blind-sighed. She needs to see the bumper sticker, friends don't let friends vote Republican. Of course now all the speculation is who will be the chosen one from each respective party. I'm thinking about trying to be more involved in politics- possibly campaign for a candidate or just volunteer with the Democratic Party. I was thinking it might be a good way to meet people in the city as well. I tried the whole football thing today, its really not my thing. I "watched" half the game, but really have no clue what happened. The best part was the Prince half-time show, honestly, thats the only part I care about..... People are wearing on my nerves. I'm trying to find a way to work things out with mother. I've been trying to call more often, however she likes to still call daily or every other day. She has such a jaded view of the world sometimes. I need more happy people in my life. I'm tired of complaining or moodiness. I had some people over for dinner Friday night, which was fun. I really like this friend of a friend, conversation just "clicks" or rather flows well. I need more people like him in my life, there are too many do-nothings or downers. I did have a lovely evening the other night which included dinner at Bleu Bistro, the movie the Queen and spending too much money at Whole Paycheck with dessert and Grey's Anatomy. I must say that it rocks my world that tv has Kallie O'Malley who is a size 12!!! finally a normal person who is pretty, but isn't a stick that you could break in half. I'm enjoying cooking again. tonight I'm making a roast chicken, such a classic Sunday night meal. I need to start reading Kite Runner tonight in preparation for this book club I've told myself I am going to! (Yes, positive affirmation is essential to overcome the lazyness.).

7:33 pm	lacking inertia i should go to the gym, but then again, Dussert isn't home so it's nice to have the apartment to myself. I have this whole gym plan and really i should there right now, but then i'm already hungry so i want dinner, but then that means that i have to wait for the food to digest and then that presents a whole slew of excuses, which ultimately means pure laziness and no gym. But then again it feels even better when i weight myself and i'm a few pounds lighter. so i guess that means i go to gym (now that i've had a "snack" of some tortilla chips). its funny how we tend to talk the inertia to do the things we say we want to do. I say I want to go to the gym, cook dinner, meet new people, read that book or go outside, but really if i truly wanted to i'd somehow find the energy to do it. (Comment on this)

1:35 pm	sometimes its just what you need So here I am again at work with my boss out "sick," alone at the office tryng to run things. I'm sort of taking a lunch. I really like my time with the NYTimes, especially at the office. I love how it takes me to other places or exposes me to new ideas. I wish I took more time out of my day to read it on a regular basis. What's funny is I don't like the paper edition, its cumbersome, but the online version is so simple- "instant news/gratification." Just like being a cafeteria Catholic, I can pick and choose my articles. So many birthdays are approaching this week. I need to get cards/gifts out. I'm trying to do the whole gym thing on a more regular basis. I took last night off, but am going again tonight, an exciting Friday night kids really. I signed up for a Pilates class hoping to meet new people/get back into one of my favorite workouts, but of course like everything else in life, I'm the only one signed up for it. Customers are back on the phone... so I must attend to their needs.... (Comment on this)

2:30 pm	Happy New Year Happy New Year- here's to 2007 being a kick ass year- I'm ready for a good year- maybe approaching things in a positive light will lead to improvement. Therefore, i will be getting drumpk tonight (that is drunk plus)- the ultimate drunk term coined by Blaire, Britta, Whitney and I in college after a night of a costco case of Alice White Chardonney.

6:55 pm	reflecting back on this year The first line of each first post of the month from 2006: January: the curse of new years eve's that suck is over! last night ended history with a big bang. i thought that it was going to suck at first but things really took a turn ending up to be a wild and crazy night. February: Thank god its Friday..... way too many early mornings this week. March: no entries... fundraiser and career fair month=no personal time April: I'ts Good Friday, the day that every Catholic should go to church besides Easter of course. Many people do not know that Easter is actually the "biggest/most important day" in Christianity/Catholicism. I didn't go to church on Christmas, but something in me says that I should go. I don't think watching mass on the Catholic channel counts (yes my friends, this is the station that the crazy old ladies watch). May: So apparently summer has arrived and everyone is out and about. Its officially tank top season. June: I seem to find myself updating on Sunday afternoons. I'm glad the weather is improving, although we seem to be having these weird spurts of torrential rain storms. July:Things are improving. I'm learning how to express my feelings. August: no entries :( September: I always tend to write on Sundays. I still haven't gotten dressed, but I guess that's what Sundays are for, lazy afternoons. I'm still at the temp job selling handtrucks & casters, answering the phones etc. October: Good weekned, some pleasant surprises. It's funny how the changing of the season affects so much in our lives. As the leaves turn over, so do many routines, patterns and relationships.
