Drinking, Dieting and Dad. September 23, 2008
Are you there Eileen? It’s me, Paula. Below is the mental picture I had of Eileen when she saw that I hadn’t blogged in four days… and reminded me of it. lmfao.
Yes, folks I am still alive. Thanks to Eileen who reminded me how I had neglected this thing for four days. I kind of went on a bender this weekend, which was both stupid and childish. I just had this hankering to get drunk and watch Star Trek. I go through these moods where I just like to drop off the face of the earth for a while. I even shut my phone off for 3 days and just wanted to be left alone.
What I then discovered during my ½ a bottle of rum is how quickly those calories take to tack on to your ass. I gained three pounds over the weekend and I even measured my calories with drinking. So lame. SO lame.
The worst part about the drinking lesson from this past weekend is that I have the New Kids on the Block concert this weekend with my friends and low and behold – we are getting wasted before going. I even made a T-shirt that says I heart Danny’s Wood.
I am not really sure what you guys know about empty calories and the gaining of weight but any advice you can throw my way would be most appreciated.
I believe my change in mood and despondence came from the fact that I kicked my dad out of my house. Andy was screaming at me and just being a lousy human being last week – he goes to work. Dad comes out and starts on me, and people, I lost my effing mind. I will go into more details later but I think I am gonna head into the tub to soak. My back is still bothering me and causing some big nerve to shoot pain down my knee.
I have dropped my calorie intake by twenty and need to see 148 or 147 within the week. Need it. Need it. Need it.
EDIT - SARAH SAYS - “If you figure out how to drop 110 in 3 days please god tell me” ( I meant to say 247 or 248 LOL)
I also met a really good new friend named Sarah on this crazy site… she is like my hetero-internet-soul mate. Here is a snippet of a conversation we had today about cupcakes.
Sarah - so my friend got a new book today

Paula - wow, that is cruel. omg

I would blow a child’s face off with a grenade launcher for frosting right now.
Sarah - AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHA

Oh, and also later on I will be telling you guys about my supercalafragalisticexpialiNSV.
But like I said.. bath. Lol.
Yeah yeah yeah I’m here. Didn’t mean to be a pest! I was just worriedaboutcha, that’s all.
It’s funny that you posted that picture in your blog today (just for me, ha) because - ya know how ya tried to post a pic from your photobucket in a comment on my blog? Well of course when I clicked on the link it took me to your photobucket account and of course I had to be nosy and peek through your pictures. And THAT one in particular totally made me LOL. I can hear Picard’s voice saying that. I can.
I’d seen most of your pics anyway.
Sorry ’bout your mood/despondence/bender/andything/dadthing/backache stuff goin’ on. Glad you’re back, though.
