Every party needs a pooper

I should be in bed right now. I skipped out on 'girl's night' to go to bed early. I am so sorry to all my girly friends who I abandoned. But let me assure you that with the look smeared on my face right now, I am no fun. Don't ask me why I am blogging. It all started when some information came to my attention tonight and it bummed me out. I know you all want to know what the information is, but not important (and mind your own business, jeeze). Then the feeling of the bummed out-ness inspired me to eat chocolate (WHY!!??? OH WHY AM I SUCH AN EMOTIONAL EATER?!?!?!). Then I sat on the couch feeling horrible that I drug myself out of bed at 5:30 this morning and worked out and now all the benefits are melting away slowly with each Hershey kiss that I unwrap. Sad pathetic me. Then that guilt led me to feel guilty that I don't blog nearly as often as I want to nor as often as I hold the standards of my friends' blogs. So, here I am. But on a better note- Kameron has learned how to climb up on the couch by herself now. I didn't know this until I looked up from doing the dishes and she was sprinting across the couch cushions and diving headfirst into throw pillows and laughing hysterically. OH! And this is great! I was at the 'Y' the other day and I weighed myself.... 119lbs!!!!!! I pretty much walked out of the Y letting everyone along the way how much I weighed. In fact, I went to the DOL the next day to get an enhanced drivers license and the guy there asked if I needed to change my height or weight. HECK YES I DO!!! I gave him the new stats (I'm sure he was SOOOO impressed). Anyways, I picked up my little temporary card afterwards and THEY DIDN'T CHANGE the information!!! It still says 140lbs!!! My lovely wonderful husband actually offered to grab another number and wait another 30 minutes to talk to someone about this and get the entire very important ordeal sorted out. But Kameron was super cranky, and I, putting my children first, walked out of there with my head hung low. I went to the Y again the next day and reweighed myself (because I worked out so hard... you never know). OH. MY. GOODNESS. Well, turns out I need to wear my glasses more often.... APPARENTLY I was reading the 'kg' line. I weigh 100lbs and 19kgs! Which equals out to 142lbs. Which makes my driver's license accurate. And makes me ten pounds heavier then what my scale at home says.... cruel cruel world.

Okay.I am done complaining. Off to bed.

oh miss lizzle bizzle. Everyone gets a poopyday card and yesterday was yours. We definitely missed you tho. That really sucks about the dumb weight thing but if it makes you feel any better- I weigh 140 lbs too and you LOOK like you weigh 120 lbs! Lets just get the truth out there..the depression you were feeling was brought on when you found out that I won't be your visiting teacher anymore. I was really bummed too.

I have not laughed that hard in a long time! I so relate to that whole story. I even had to tell my husband.
