Somebody Slap Me ...

and wake me up! I am drowsy here at the store and I just hopped over to Java Depot to get a cold coffee. I just need something exciting to happen like say, a customer walk through the door or something.
Yesterday was a good day at the coast and the weekend was fabulous. Best Sunday we have ever had actually. I am glad tomorrow I get a day to stay at home. I am going to sleep in, do laundry, get a massage if my LMT has an opening, do more laundry, clean my room so I can walk in my closet and get a bunch of stuff into bags. A bag for donations, a bag for Ebay and a giant trash bag. I am really in the mood to get rid of the clutter around the house.
I put a couple of new pics up on my page. They are not new, just found. Paul brought them over from the old house. One of the pics is his favorite pic of me, so I put it up for him. You should check them out and tell me whiich one is your favorite.
Paul wishes I still looked like that. But honey, I can't go back in time and neither can you. And that is me, inside I still am that person. Alas, I have packed on some pounds since moving to Oregon and I really need to get it off, but the doctor said something like -- "no sugar, cut it out entirely. No white flour -- no pasta, rice, bread." Masochist. Who is she kidding? I like inflicting pain on others, self-deprivation is not in my vocabulary.
I can't fathom a daily diet without those things. Can I? So I am going to have to figure something else out. I have been contemplating getting a bike and that is probably an excellent idea for this summer, but what happens when the rain starts again?
I need a partner to go riding with and keep me motivated. Get me out of the house on a beautiful day for a little while. Paul runs, and I have never been a runner so that is not going to happen. I would really like to try yoga. My physical therapist says that I am very flexible. Yoga would help me become even more flexible, help strengthen my core, and give me some much needed stress relief. I don't know why I haven't already signed up it sounds so good.
This Saturday my friend and I are going to see the DaVinci Code. I am interested in seeing how they adapted the novel to fit into less than two hours. One friend of mine, who will remain nameless, thinks that the DaVinci Code is highly overrated and most people don't understand it. Here is an excerpt from a bulletin my lovely niece posted, "The Da Vinci Code ... was a really good movie.... I'm still confused on a few parts but it was an awesome movie. Just letting everyone know!"
I know that he will laugh at that and say, "exactly! Most people don't get it." OK, I say. But isn't it good to at least feed the people some interesting tidbits to ponder? And if we don't start instilling "conspiracy theory" into our next generation to take the lead then who will? Like Napolean Dynamite would say, "Gosh."
And speaking of Mr. Dynamite, I had tater tots tonight. I realize that this is completely off the subject, but hey, I will use any transition I can get to say "Hasta La Vista" so I can shut down this machine and hop into a nice warm bed. Ciao!
