every day is a new day somewhere

Good morning to whoever is left of my loyal tens of readers. I must apologize for my delinquency with regular posting. I’ve been on the busy side… see… there is this new man in my life, and true to form, all other aspects fall away into the abyss during the first few weeks where I’m trying so hard to learn all there is to know about him.

This past week, I had an opportunity to display to him exactly how I feel about him when I did something for him. In a moment of altruism, I gave up a primo parking spot directly in front of my apartment, on a one way street (where I needn’t worry about my mirrors being taken off by passing cars) to give him a ride home, in what must have been the truest display of affection ever made in an urban environment. I mean, I like this guy more than a primo parking spot. That is HUGE.

In other news,

I’m back on South Beach phase I again because, I’ve been a bit too liberal with the allowable carbs in phase II and my momentarily loose pants have become snug again. Phase I part Deux (Day 1) saw my breakfast of eggs, Canadian bacon, coffee with cocoa-soy-moo and splenda, and an 8oz glass of tomato(e) juice. One daily multi-vitamin and 2 fish oil capsules (Tom said it helps with depression and the bottle says it helps with stress). I did my stretches (ok, half of them, the upper body ones, the lower body ones I’ll do at lunchtime) and tonight, I’m going to go running in the park after work. (Thank god the park is only one square block)

Much to do today while the grey clouds have parted long enough to give me some breathing room. I promise to be better at posting. I do, I swear.
