vacation effects.

vacation has come and gone. it was a lovely time filled with fun, family, friends, and a whole lot of food. and i mean a lot. the best greek food ever, my favorite chinese restaurant, a fancy seafood place in west seattle (splurge alert), kinza teriyaki, elephant ears, pastries, greasy spoon pit stop, hearty breakfasts and a bunch of snacks. "fruit snacks?" yes. even those.

don't get me wrong, it was incredible. our motto quickly became "it's vacation!", which allowed us to eat whatever we wanted. it also allowed me to struggle to button my shorts. people tell me that i wear my extra weight well; that it distributes itself in a way that you can't tell. i think they're full of shit. i see it in my face, around my middle and in chub gathering on my back. not even my backside, just my back. gross.

as soon as i get this whole "job" thing figured out, i am getting that gym membership that kerstin tells me i need. counting the days.

today i start by walking to church for rehearsal in the dead of the heat. i'll probably sweat a good pound or so by the time i get there. :)
