MMT

Where to begin...Well, one thing I forgot to post on Friday was that at work on Friday afternoon, my knee doctor in Florida faxed over an order for me to have a knee xray at work so he could verify the placement of the screw he's going to remove on October 16. Anyway, I was laying on the table having my xray and the tech looked at my ankle and said, "Oh, what do you have, a tattoo or a note or something?" And I freaked and said, "Uh, yeah." Thank God she left it at that because printed on my left ankle in sharpie pen are the words "QUOD ME NUTRIT ME DESTRUIT."Anyway...On Friday night, I decided that I couldn't let this out-of-control behavior go on any longer, and I took a metabolife thinking that it would make me less hungry at breakfast and make it easier to wake up in the morning because of the caffeine. Well, I went to bed at 1am, and around 5am, I was wide awake. Actually, it was probably earlier because I tried really hard to get back to sleep but I couldn't, and I finally got out of bed at 5am. So...I took a shower and packed for my cousin's wedding, and then decided to go to work and see if there was any filing or anything to do. I got to work a little after 6:30am, and there really wasn't much to do, so I finished up what I could in less than 20 minutes, and then went in the back to say hi to Kim. I ended up leaving work at 10:40am and rushing to get to my grandmother's house. Kim and I talked about everything, and I really enjoyed her company. She's the nicest person, and it always makes me feel a little better to talk to her. I need to get a card to give to her when I leave.So, I got to my grandmother's house around 11am, and we didn't end up leaving until 12:30pm, and then we stopped about 20 minutes into the trip to eat lunch, and finally got to the Cape and checked into the condo around 4pm. My aunt and grandmother went to the rehearsal dinner and my two cousins and I went to the grocery store, took a nap, and then went out to dinner. I got chicken broccoli alfredo but I only ate about 1/2 cup of pasta and no chicken or broccoli because the pills make food repulsive to me (yeah!). Anyway, we got 2 pints of ice cream for that night, and I only had one scoop of each flavor while we were watching "Legally Blonde." All in all, I had a pretty good food weekend.This morning, we went to breakfast, and then back to the condo to take showers and get ready for the wedding. The wedding started at 1:30pm, and it was really good except for the fact that there were a lot of people and it was outside, and they didn't use a microphone, so we got to watch the wedding, but couldn't hear it. Also, it was at lunch time, and they had crackers, cheese, shrimp, strawberries and an open bar, and it was at lunch time...so everyone was starving and drunk. LOL. I don't think it's smart to give people unlimited alcohol and no food. But, it was really cool to see all of my family again...some people I haven't seen since I was a baby, some for 10 years...so, yeah, it was cool. And my God-mother was there. I haven't seen her since 1992 (I think she was at my dad's funeral in '95 but I don't remember seeing her). I wish I had more time to spend catching up with her. She said she'll be at the Cape until next Monday (they live in San Francisco) but I don't know if I really want to drive there and back in one day (at least 5 hours, maybe more).Also, I was kind of freaked out being surrounded by people that looked like my dad. Actually, I kind of wanted to scream and run, but I just pretended I was fine. All of his brothers and sisters (mostly my God-mother) look just like him. And it makes me really sad, and it's just a weird feeling to see someone who's gone in someone else.Well, I need to get to bed. It's only 9:30pm, but I'm exhausted. I'll write more tomorrow. And on a good note, I'm working with Kim on Tuesday and Wednesday. :o)
