candylandFirst things first. I know I suck at remembering birthdays, but if I forgot this one, I think I would be a suitable candidate for a bricking because the birthday girl is my BFF who I have known for just under two decades. So...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY kaitodoushi! And good luck at NATS tomorrow! \(^o^)/
I had my final weigh-in for Live Healthy today. Between January 14th and today, I have lost 33.5 pounds.
I was exactly four pounds away from hitting fifteen percent, and while there's that little voice in my head insisting that if I'd worked a little harder in the last couple of weeks, I could have totally hit the fifteen percent mark, I am actually quite pleased. It's a one hundred day challenge, which puts me at almost exactly one pound every three days, or two pounds a week. And that's pretty damn good in my book.
I got new flip-flops today. Old Navy had 'em two for five bucks. I asked Mom if I could borrow the card to get twenty percent off, since the one pair I have right now is sort of worn down to nothing. She told me they would spring for my flip-flops. ILU, MOMMY ♥♥♥
summerwrite2 starts in a week. I have nothing planned. Halp me plz ;3;
And my first shift in the pharmacy was tonight. I am totally a blank slate back there, which doesn't seem to bother them at all. And I am now a master of the cash register back there. I think I'm going to like it back there a lot once I learn more of the stuff to do--I hate standing still at work. The pharmacist I was working with tonight seemed sort of amused by the fact that I was actually asking for things to do.
After work I was really hungry, so I decided to treat myself and swing through Burger King on the way home. And up on the drive-through menu was a sign: "Due to the nature of the advertisement, we will not be participating in the Spongebob Squarepants toy promotion. We will be selling the children's meal at a discount price without the toy."
If you haven't seen the ad, it involves a parody of "Baby Got Back" with women dancing semi-provocatively with their clothing designed/stuffed to make their asses look square. The one time I saw it, I actually was torn between "This is stupid" and "This is borderline offensive," but that's my inner feminist speaking, and it's not always totally rational.
An hour later, I'm still not sure what I think about that sign. What do you think?
