3: Long, Hot Showers

Really... need I say more?

Awesome

2: My Dad

I am beyond a Daddy's girl. I strive a lot of the time to be like him in so many ways. My dad is funny, sarcastic, kind, giving, polite, and generally awesome. He and my mother raised me in such a way that my brothers and I were never grounded, never snuck out, never got in bad trouble. My biggest worry is disappointing my dad. He gets along with everyone but you can't walk all over him. He loves his family more than anything. He quotes Lord of the Rings to me. He gives me weed. He trusts me. He's never scared off my boyfriends. In fact my first boyfriend said, a while after we broke up, that one thing he really missed... Was my dad.

I can hardly even express how important my dad is to me. Hence why this entry makes almost no sense. He's coming to Guelph today to cosign on a loan for me to get a car. After helping me to find one for the last 4 months. I look up to him more than anyone else, ever. Sorry Mom ;)

1: Taking Off Your Socks

Seriously. Your feet are sweaty, or you're warm, or you've been on your feet all day. Get in the house, take off your socks and sit down. Doesn't matter where. Doesn't matter where your socks go (at the moment). It's like bliss.

Mmmm

Whoops

Oops.  It would seem in the madness of the holidays and rereading Dooce, and then starting The Biggest Loser competition with Erin and Jana, I've forgotten to blog.  I think this may have a lot to do with the fact that I actually feel better about everything lately.  I'm in the process of buying a new car.  I'm doing this competition and I've lost almost 6 lbs in 3 weeks.  Things are starting to look up.  I've joined this website called My Fitness Pal and it is just amazing.  I can track everything I eat, every exercise I do, and all the nutrients in what I'm eating and it'll tell me how much I'm allowed, and if I'm doing well. It's a massive community too so anything I've been having issues with, someone else has been too.  And they wrote about it. And then I read about it. Victory.

I do want to post more often. Just about things that happen in my day.  I'd like to add photographs but my camera is so abysmally average, and just makes everything BRIGHT (not pretty, or well-lit... just BRIGHT) that I don't tend to take a lot of pictures with it.  I wish I had an amazing camera. haha.

I had an idea though.  In an attempt to keep my mind on the positive side (I have a job interview on Thursday! I've lost 6 lbs! My birthday is coming up!), I want to attempt to post 1 thing that cheers me up or that I find awesome every day.  This, of course, has EVERYTHING to do with 1000 Awesome Things which is just.. a dude with a list of 1000 awesome things.  I honestly had 3 of them last night while I was fiddling around in the apartment, but of course, they're gone now.  I'll try to come up with one by the end of the night and post it. Maybe with accompanying picture? OOOOoooo so fancy.
