Whoa Crazy!

I had a dream about C the other night. I dreamed he was pale. Like hadn't been going to the tanning bed. I almost didn't recognize him. Plus he was...well...not fat...but not lean. Like he actually had some meat to his face. Hmmm. Weird.
In other non-related news, I have a date on Saturday. We're going to see a play at the theater. That's right, I'm headed to a fancy date. Well, not fancy...but just something that I never could have done in Charleston. Well, I guess I could have..but I didn't really know many people (and certainly not guys) who went to the theater. I'm a little nervous but mostly because I'm not sure what to wear. I'm leaning towards skinny jeans, a pair of flats and a cute top. But he's a little taller, so should I put on heels? I wish I had some of my summer tops here - I could pair it with a sweater and be ok but they are still in NC until next week.
Speaking of which...I'm headed home next week! I leave on Wednesday. I'm so excited to see everyone. Also to eat Bojangles. I have done mostly great with the no carbs thing but I'm ready to make up for that with a dozen biscuits and some fried chicken.

Ready for Sunshine!

Well we had a few really great sunshiney days. It was so nice - mid 70's, so hot but not too hot. The sunshine was just enough to warm my cheeks! It was amazing! But now? It's back to 50-60 outside...and windy. I took my bike out for a ride today, thinking it wouldn't be too bad but man, it was really cold! With the usual wind plus the wind I created with my speedy bike (haha!), my fingers were numb.
Anyways, when it finally gets warm again, I want to get a pair of roller blades. That'll be my next exercise activity to do along the lake front. Oh and guess what? The water here? It's blue! I don't know what to think of that. I'm used to the murky brown Atlantic...it's so pretty to look out and see blue water!
Ok I have to get back to my latest exception: Tiny Tower. It's a game on my phone and it's so pointless but so fun. You create an apartment building and you keep building new floors, which are residential floors or you pick a business to operate from that floor. Then you try to employ your bitizens (not a typo, they're itty bitty!) in the type of business that they like to work at. Like I said, pointless...but addictive.

Oops!

Sorry I've been so bad about blogging lately...I've been working a lot and have been super lame. Here's a sample of my usual schedule: Wake up, go to work, come home, make dinner, get ready for bed, sleep. Repeat. I know...no fun! But, I've been working 5-6 days a week for the past month which has been nice. I got my credit card paid off (yippee!!!) and need to call to make a decent size payment on a student loan.
Let's see...what else is new? I'm not eating carbs so have managed to lose 8 pounds but have been stuck at that mark for about a week. It sucks...it was actually pretty easy at first but now it's starting to get hard to resist temptation. Just 2 more weeks....
I bought a bike! I rode it to work today and got there faster than what the bus could have gotten me there. However, it sprinkled on my way home so I got a little wet. I need to take into account that the weatherman isn't 100% accurate and if he says rain at 5, it could mean rain at 3:30.
Aside from those couple things, I've got nothing exciting going on. I'll try to find something exciting to get into so I can blog more frequently....
