Dieting, cat poop, and other things.
Michael Jackson - Beat ItHey folks, many of you are back in school – but I’m still hanging around doing the underachiever thing I do so well, haha.
I’m visiting my mom for like 2 months, I’m leaving in early November (hey there’s a band called The Early November). That was geekish. I’m really excited to go back down to PA and see my family for a while. I will miss my cat, and yeah… even my boyfriend (a little bit!). I haven’t been home since March, and I can’t wait for some real pizza!
Speaking of pizza, I’ve been doing some extreme dieting, which was painful at first (I love food!) but I’m accustomed to it now. It’s been like 11 days or something since I started and I’ve steadily lost weight which is wonderful, because this time of the year is the worst for dieting… all those damn food holidays! It will take lots of willpower to keep it up through December – through my birthday, and Christmas of course. But that is still a few months away, so plenty of time to come up with a game plan.
Yesterday, my cat had a little “poop episode”. He has these like once or twice a year. He’s so furry and fluffy, and I think he sometimes sits in his own poop or something by accident because he had a huge load of crap stuck to his hairy butt and whenever he’d come near us Justin was like “Ew! Get away, you smell like shit!”. So anyway, we had to put him in the bath tub and wash off all the dangling turds, and he was just miserable throughout the whole thing. But anyway – that is the “poop episode”, haha. I know you loved reading about it ;)

Hahaha.. thats soo ewwy. I used to work at a Groom/Kennel and we did cats and I saw some really disgusting booties.. and oh my god.. the smell!! blahh!!!
Anyways, I’m glad your going back to see your family. I thought once I was in college I’d never go back to see them but how wrong I’ve been. I still see them a lot, not as much, but enough.
By they way.. when do I have to send you more money to keep my site up and running?

Good job with the dieting, I need to go on a diet all I ever eat is fast food because we never have any food at home!
Wow that was wonderful hearing about your cats poop.

I’ve been trying to go on a not so extreme, but still adequate diet. I need to lose 15 pounds in the next eight months…which is easy considering the amount of time I have, but difficult because it needs to stay off. Good luck with your dieting!
As for the cat poop, I nearly peed myself reading that. My one cat is so furry that we came across that problem a few times. I, of course, never once opted to clean the poop off. Instead I would just run around screaming, “Ew! Someone get the poop!”

Gosh, you must have a lot of will power to go on a diet. I really can’t. Congratulations on accomplishing the steady weight loss you wanted, but don’t push too hard you might suffer exhaustion or something.
Can’t wait to read your next post!

….and I thought my friend’s golden retriever was gross. Well, at least Mr. Bojangles didn’t run away or anything when you tried to wash him.
Good luck on the dieting thing. I’m not really a whole fad diet fanatic or anything, but volumetrics seems to be pretty straightforward. Basically, you eat stuff that’s less dense in calories and whatnot….and you end up eating more, but less calories.
Have fun visiting home!

This is my second comment, but who cares haha.
Well, I’m already in oollege, I know, I’m young right o_o But there are people in my class who’re like 18 and 20, so I’m hoping for some more mature people. And a code would be funny hahaha, too bad you can’t arrange that.

… lol. i’d hate to be you with that kitty.
i’ve noticed your comment rate as started to decline. guess this is because of all these people going to school?? so i’ll try to comment on as many of your blogs as i can. it’s the least i could do for such a wonderful host. ;)
dieting is good, although i love food too much to actually go on one. but i don’t think i’m obese or unhealthy or anything, so it doesn’t matter.

Extreme diets never work, because you end up going back to your normal eating routine and gaining all the weight back.
What I’ve been doing is gradually incorporating increased exercise and gradually changing my diet, and it seems to be working pretty well. It’s not a sudden lifestyle change, so I know I’ll stick with it.

Dieting?! Who does that?
No me, that’s for damn sure. lol.
My BFF Russell has this dog, God knows what kind…but she’s huge and fluffy and has a perpetually shitty ass. ALWAYS. Grosses me the fuck out. lol, I guess I can relate a little bit.
Love you.
