Can't...Stop...Cleaning....

Once you've started, you just can't stop. At first I was just cleaning up a few things around my room, and the next thing I know I've rearranged furniture, swiffered floors, wiped down counters, wash dishes, empty the dishwasher... Most of you wouldn't even recognize me right now, seriously! I'll save the bathroom/toilet for another day. I bought some flowers yesterday for my room, and using the glass milk bottle that Johnny and Lucy Long bought me while they were in town - looks like a got myself a vase. And it's sitting right next to my picture of Owen beside my bed - smiles. Also just turned my blow up bed into a couch/futon/kitchen table/closet space. But really it's a queen size blow up bed and I turned it longways against the wall, put a fitted sheet on it, and threw a comforter on top. Its a pretty enticing deal for whoever comes to visit this summer.  My room almost looks like a REAL room now! Lovely. Now I just need to figure out a curtain situation - my balcony door is connected to my window so it makes for an awkward angle to hang curtain. Hmmm.....

Made some grilled chicken tonight, pretty simple stuff. I haven't been eating starches for the past 1.5 weeks (eternity). It's like there are no other options out there. I'm trying to make it till Wednesday, my birthday, though I don't even think cutting starches out has done one thing. Maybe it takes longer than a week and a half to start losing weight, but I guess I've just had it way too easy in the past. 23 is all too much a reality right now. When I told my friend Henry earlier that I didn't want to turn 23, he says, "why, it's great!" His "argument" was that 23 sounds so much older and you get more respect. My response (and all I heard out of that statement) was that I just sound older because I'm old now. Ah - I should stop my complaints because 23 is still very young. And there's no other holiday I love more than my birthday. I'm kidding, sort of. Mom sent me up a Happy Birthday banner to hang it my room. My roommate said to leave it in her room and she'd hang it because there's no way I can hang my other birthday banner.

Wow, I wrote a lot tonight. Oh, and one more thing. A friend promised me that if I gave him a shout out on here he'd finally follow me. So here it is
My first Peace Love Chi O date, Drew Plunk
Please take note of the Jessica Simpson poster hanging in Drew and Morgan's room from that year.

Annnnd another one - Destin '08

There ya go, Rew. Now you better follow through. 

Night, folks. Happy Genna Eve Eve.
