Long (Life's) Journey.

Not much skin pickin' happened today, but last night... YEAH. I picked at the place I really, really, really do not want to be picking at. I stayed up too late, zoned out, and thus, ended up picking. I failed to grab my stress ball or anything else (my rain coat/poncho bundled in its little pouch would have sufficed, earth to me!). I couldn't seem to turn away from 'doing the unnecessary' and hurting my skin. Ugh. I was in the skin picking zone... The worst place to be... Don't ever be there!

I didn't do much damage though. I will say that. THANK THE LORD. It's fine. It's perfectly fine. I can still get back on track and conquer this OCD shit... and bury its remains in Captain Hook's dumpster somewhere in Neverland (if they have those there).

Today was pretty great. Work was alright. I brought everyone biscotti I had made. Gingerbread biscotti. They loved it. I'm hoping some of my co-workers will order some. I'm thinking they might...

After work, I had the best workout I've ever had in a long, long time (even though I workout like, everyday). I did run/speed walk intervals on the treadmill for 25 minutes, then cycling for 5 minutes as a cool down (um, more like a super fast, top speed, I can't control my legs cardio cool down...). Then I lifted weights. I did some few upper body work moves, but it was fairly intense. I lift everytime I visit the gym, but today I think I may have tried harder... ? Or was just killing time before my pilates class started.

Yup, (mostly) just killing time. The time slot for my pilates class arrived pretty swiftly.

Pilates was great today. Haven't done an actual pilates class in awhile. I've been focusing on yoga classes and DVDs a lot lately. Although I do encompass a few pilates moves in my day-to-day activities. For example, before work starts, I'm doing pilates outside on the cement while waiting for the manager to arrive and unlock the damn place, or in the breakroom where people alsmost trip over me or ask why I care about my appearance so much. I do all this so that I can feel aligned and ready to kickass at work, OK?? HIIIIIIII YA! <--- (my attempt at what ninjas say right before they kick someone in the face... except it's while I'm at work and after I do that pilates-muh-jig)

Went to the library. Got some books. About acting. Yes. And a play. Yes.

I've been feeling so nervous lately. I think I've made a choice in my life and I'm really not used to making big choices. So I feel uneasy. Because underneath my choice, I'm still not sure about it. Ugh. That's the fun in life though... not being sure about anything, any path you are choosing to embark upon. It makes human existance FUN.

Well... le sigh.

I'm gonna go drink a homemade iced soy chai latte. I'm almost done making it. I stopped making it to type this blog. Ack, why did I do that??? Silly me. I'm craving one SO bad!

Um, oh yeah...

I'm must mention that I'm gonna go to my cousin's high school graduation tomorrow night since I felt downright TERRIBLE for missing her pre-graduation/birthday party. (Her birthday is exactly 1 month away... I didn't understand why she would combine the two. To save money? Haha, that's a good enough explanation for me. I still didn't attend.) She went to a Catholic school. I'm sure she'll be happy not to have to wear uniforms anymore. do Catholic university's require uniforms? That would totally be Sucksville.

Ok ok.

Chilly Chai + Addict Me = Now!

Mmmmm...



Toodle-loo.


p.s. My three Weimaraner dogs got into my mom's Vitamin E oil tonight. It was sitting on her desk. They ate it ALL. Lapped up every last bit of it.

I really wish I worked tomorrow. Those dogs are gonna be puking until hell freezes over. Pure breeds... Extremely sensitive stomachs... *sigh*
