restoring

i watched a hockey game (at least part of it) for the first time EVER last night. this has less to do with my 'band, and more to do with my good friend bren. the melles's are quite contagious in their love for hockey. brendan has spent many significant hockey moments over at their place glued to the set. so when he casually said last evening "i think i'll watch the hockey game" i thought i'd join him. i was just sitting around knitting anyways. brendan found i talked too much, and by the end of the second period he turned the tv off because he was feeling too overly simulated by all the noise coming at him. i maintained hope until halfway thru the second period that vancouver would rally, by then i was confidently telling brendan that i was more certain that we would some day own a hybrid car than i was that the knucks were going to win that game.

it occured to me the other day that i don't own a white tank top. or at least i didn't and i felt a huge need to get one pronto. so i bought one on friday and i'm loving it. it's so versatile. why didn't i ever own one before!!?!?

losing weight (and gaining weight too for that matter) is very strange. i'm finding shirts and other clothing items are fitting slightly different very gradually. it's a very slow process. i was quite surprised to discover when buying my new white tank top that i'm a size small now. strange! i'm probably not a small for everything, but for some things i am. after i hit what felt like a weight-loss plateau i'm happy that i'm making progress once again. i've now actually lost 20 pounds. crazy huh? like really. i can see a big difference in my face. brendan doesn't see it, he said he never noticed it in my face. i did, that's where it bothered me the most.

the mojomobile is getting hot flashes. i hope it gets better soon! i'm super thankful that i have a buddy like frank to help me figure out the problem and enjoys doing so.

i'll keep you up when you're tired.
