Acne Killer
I found a great new product for killing acne! Lately I have been breaking out badly around my chin, and since I no longer have my fabulous Dermotologist, I went to Ulta and got a line of product from Neutrogena. I bought a cleanser for the shower, a cleanser for the evening, a toner for the evening, and then (the special product) I bought some zit zapper stuff. I don't remember what it's called at the moment. But I've only used it twice now, and my zits are running away screaming! I had one big painful one that has been there for too long, and it's almost gone. In TWO days! I'm so happy! I love it!

Madonna is So OVER!
I had Madonna's new song. I wish she's just fly off into the abyss and leave the hip music to the new artists. She's no Cher!

What Was That I Said about Drinking?
So, I guess it’s only been about two weeks since my entry regarding NEVER DRINKING AGAIN. Well, I guess I have no will power. Darin’s 30th birthday was this weekend. We went to the local Legion to celebrate. Seems harmless right? Well, I have decided that drinking with relatives is worse than partying with friends. I never was without a drink. The drinks were very bad too. The bartender was making them horribly strong. I was so drunk, that when we closed the place down, I stood up to walk out, left over cake in hand, and fell over. It was a little embarrassing. But oh well, my husband was wasted too. So it was all good.
After we closed down the bar, we all decided that we should all go back to my grandmother’s house, where my aunt lives in the apartment above. We were on a mission to wake my aunt up, because she crapped out on us and never showed up to the bar. So we all tromped upstairs to my aunt’s place. My poor Grandma, she never came out to yell at us, but I know she was in her room pissed. My aunt wound up making us eggs. After that, around 4:00am we finally decided to go home. At this point, I still was not aware of the extent of my drunkenness. I should have been tipped off by my husband’s statement, who is never drunk, “I’m wasted”. As he drove us home… No I’m sure you city folk people are now thinking, “you kids shouldn’t have been driving if you were so drunk”. Let me remind you that this town only has like 5 houses in it. OK, that was an exaggeration… But we drove only 3 blocks to our house.
After greeting the toilet bowl with a little surprise, I wound up falling asleep on the couch. Don’t ask me why. I don’t remember lying down on the couch much. Sunday morning, I thought I was feeling fine, except for this little puking problem that I developed. I couldn’t hold anything down. I think I puked 7 times. The toilet and I are now close buddies.
So let me tell y’all again. I am never going to drink again. The thought still today makes me a little queasy. If I do drink again, I think I’m going to have to change my drink of choice. Maybe to something a little less alcoholic. Maybe a Shirley Temple next time.

It's Here!
No, I'm not talking about the cold northern winter. I'm talking about my Lateral Thigh Trainer!
woo hoo! I came home last night, and there it was, in all it's glory. Waiting for me at my door.
So I brought my new friend into my house, and assembled it. I only had time to assemble it because I had to run off to meet some of my relatives for dinner. So tonight, it's all me and my LTT.
Right now and for the rest of the week, we are having our annual Warehouse Sale. Last night they were allowing us to use our 30% discount on top of them marking everything 50% off. So I found some good deals! This is the retail perk that I totally love, and am glad to have! I bought a regularly priced jacket at $250, for $25! Woo hoo! And an $80 purse for $10. I love it!

I Just Might Be Too Old For This
Let me share with you, the details of my Friday Night.
Friday Night was designated Ladies Night Out. Dinner and a Movie. This is because my pregnant friend wanted to do something, but didn't want to do anything too strenuous. It also turns out that it was a co-worker of mine's 30th Birthday. That being said, our evening didn't exactly stay as planned.
We started out innocently enough by going to Houlihans and having two-for-ones and appetizer. Then around 7:00 we decided that we didn't have to go to a movie. So we stayed a while longer. Then our prego friend left, so then it was just us non-pregos left. 5 of us. So we stayed and drank some more. Then happy hour came back on, so we had a couple more two-for-ones. Let me tell you, our waiter loved us! So at about 11:00 we decided to go to one of the girls boyfriends friends house where they were hanging out. We decided this because the alcohol would be free. So after a crazy night of drinking, I finally drove my ass home at 3:00.
I totally thought I wasn't that drunk though. I went home, felt fine, and went to bed. No spinning or anything! I thought, this is great! Tomorrow I'm going to feel fine!
Noon on Saturday. I finally wake up to the chirping birds. OK, not chirping birds, loud fu&*^ing stomping upstairs neighbors. I hate them, how the hell can you stomp so hard on the floor, and not realize you are stomping? I swear they were going to fall through the ceiling an into my bed with me. Grrrr.
So I decided to get my lazy ass out of bed. Boy, did I feel nauseous. So I go to the fridge to get some water and some lunch. Since it was noon and all.... After I ate, I just felt even more nauseous. So I decided to take a nap. Then Darin called, and I had to talk. It was at this moment that I realized I was hung over. I didn't realize how hard it was to talk when you thought you were going to puke at any moment. So after I got off the phone with my hunky husband, I took a nap. The only time I changed out of my pj's all day was when I had to leave to buy groceries, then I came home, snacked on my watermelon, and did very little.
I'm not sure what put me over the edge. Like I said, when I came home I was feeling pretty mild. So I was pretty surprised by the state I was in the next morning. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with that blue shot I did. Or maybe it was that pink one. Or maybe that green one. Or maybe the big blue drink I had with chunks of pineapple floating in it.... Yeah, I think it was one of them.

Proud New Owner
I am the proud new owner of a Lateral Thigh Trainer. I have watched the infomercial for this thing several times and each time I think, "it's compact, it probably does what I want it to do, it's small enough to fit under my bed, I can move it back and forth from the living room to the bedroom. Heck! Why not buy it?!"
A few days ago I went to good ole' Walmart, and found the first version of this machine for $60. But it didn't offer the video workout with it, so I decided I might as well order the newest one, with all the bells and whistles!
So I can't wait until I get it! They say it takes 4-6 weeks for delivery. :o( I'm going to be eagerly waiting it's appearance.
I'm also thinking about buying "Core Secrets" with Brook Burk. I figure if she doesn't motivate me to work out and stop eating, then no one will. She's so hot.
