I miss you Mom.. and newsflash.. I'm fat!! ROTF

  • Hey there homies. Back from another weekend. I actually got rest, can you believe it? Friday morning I worked at Traffic, then came home and collasped into bed. I was TIRED. I'm tired most of the time, but I was to the point of feeling drunk. I told my coworker Gianna to answer the phone, since I was kinda slurring my words. The other Lisa (Lisa D, who used to be Lisa C, you know her Leeanne) was doing traffic for KOIT and both she and Gianna made nummy treats. I was a bad Lisa. Okay anyway so I went home and conked out, and Cathy woke me up around 6pm to tell me she and TJ were going to the Iron Horse and I was invited. They waited for me to shower and eat some supper, then we took off. We only stayed there about an hour and I had a few drinks. Then we stopped by Coldstone and TJ treated me to a Who You Callin Shortcake? Sundae. Did I need it? Not really. It was good though. Face it, its the holidays, I'm already fat. Haha. Later I went home, watched TV and went to bed.
  • Saturday morning I worked in SF, and got stuck for an extra 30 min on BART due to a track malfunction near Lake Merritt. Eventually I got back to San Leandro and went to the gym. No it didn't reverse all the bad stuff I've eaten lately, but whatever. Later on I came home and did housework, then watched a lot of TV. Oh and I made a mixed Christmas CD to bump in the car. I watched even more TV after that, then fell asleep in my room watching Scrubs.
  • Sunday morning I woke up nice and refreshed. 11 hours of sleep will do that to ya. I think I deserved it. I took a shower, ate some instant Cream of Wheat (those servings are uber small, no wonder I'm hungry all the time), then Cathy and I picked up Michelle and Dad for our ride up to Sebastopol. We stopped by Safeway so Michelle could pick up flowers and I could get coffee for everyone. Soon we were on our way and were blasting Christmas tunes. The ride up there is so peaceful. After visiting Mom at the cemetary, we had lunch at McDonalds. I got my fries with no salt, if that helps. Yeah I was bad. Ugh so hard to eat healthy. So on the way back we got more coffee then headed on home. Once Cathy and I got back to the house we switched cars and I went with her to pick up some groceries at Lucky for her and TJ. TJ gave her money to buy food since he's a guy and eats triple what even I can put away. When we got back home I uploaded pics to Myspace then watched movies in my room. The cinema choices for the evening were "Single Santa Seeks Mrs. Claus" (thanks Kimmie) and "Like Father Like Son". Cathy came in and I popped a huge pimple on her buttcrack. I'm sure she's stoked to hear I'm blogging about it. It was gross.
  • It's 3 days until Christmas and my schedule is hectic. I'm working all week of course, with comp days coming for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I'm actually doing our grocery run this evening since there's no way on God's green earth that I'm setting foot in a store on Christmas Eve. That's the only other time I'd have to squeeze in shopping. So yeah. Craziness.
  • Yesterday was exactly one year since Mom passed. I really don't have enough time or energy to blog a giant retrospective about what the past 12 months have been like for our family. This will be my 2nd Christmas without her. Last Christmas was only 4 days after she passed and we were too busy planning her funeral arrangements to fully enjoy the holiday. I still wake up sometimes and wonder if it's a bad dream, if I call my Dad's house maybe she'll answer and not Michelle. Guess I'm just silly. I miss her a lot, and I always will. God needed her more than we did, obviously. I shouldn't be so selfish. Okay well I'm gonna go now. Here's a video Victoria from my fulltime job made at our Christmas dinner last week. I have 2 giant chins. LMAO
