Today was the best day ever! Yep EVER! I spent the most of the day with my grocery shopping friend we started the day with a movie (shocker). We went and saw Horrible Bosses with my cousin. We had a girls morning. I would give the movie 2.5 stars out of 5. It was ok but not a solid good. I enjoyed the characters and the story line (kind of) but it could have done with less of what I call the "groaner" moments; moments that they really didn't need in the film. Who am I to judge right....oh wait I am the consumer and I can judge what ever I want! After the movie I was hungry; when am I not really. I always want food everytime I go to the movie I guess my mind seems to think that movies equal food. It is kind of like pavlov and his salavating dogs. I would have settled for pizza, or a pretzel or candy or pretty much everything. I was good and left the theater empty handed....
After the movie we made our way to target where I promptly lost my cousin and friend for ohh about 20 min. I just wandered down every isle like a lost puppy. Once I found them we headed out to our next stop; Walgreens. I was on a mission for school supplies. I never thought I would be saying those words again and refer to myself. But here I am, shopping, for school supplies. I spent a wooping 12 dollars on stuff today. I restrained myself I did not purchase the Justin Bieber backpack or Glee peechees that I had my eye on inst ead I stuck to the pens, pencils, notebooks and erasers that I needed. BORING! The rest of the things I intended to get were sold out thanks to all the other people who felt that they deserved the items more than I did and bought up everything before I got there. Guess I will just have to go on a mission to all walgreen's within a 20 min radius.
Right about now I was starting to melt. I am just not cut out for this heat anymore I am such a wimp. It could be worse, it could be 100% humidity as well. We returned home sweating and with our mouths parched. I spent roughtly 10 min in front of the fan just letting the cool air roll over me.
My friend was kind enough to paint my nails for me before I headed upstairs to get ready for my night out with my bestie guy friend. It was his birthday last friday and so I wanted to take him out for a little birthday dinner. I didn't want to interrupt his weekend plans so I made for tonight. We are going to PF Changs. I am like so excited right now I can't even handle myself. I have been waiting....more like dreaming for the day when I would walk across the threshold of the Chang and partake of their yummy awesomeness. I did not go unprepared I will have you know though. I had my friend go through the menu with me while I was getting ready to let me know all the things that fit within the guidelines so that I could make the best choices. I was more then ready to go.
I went through my wardrobe (which is getting more and more limited with each pound I lose) to find something worth wearing. I decided on a new top I just bought. I wanted him to be a bit surprised since he hadn't seen me in a few months (roughly 30 lbs ago). He didnt dissappoint, that my friends is why he is my bestie. I just love him and he makes me feel good about myself. When you don't have a lot of men in your life (besides family) it is nice to hear you look good once in a while, you know especially when you are stuggling.
We had a great time. I just thuroughly enjoyed my time. The day was great. Great company, great food, great looking outfit, and well great attitude! It is definitely a day that I want to remember.
A thick layer of self hate removed today! A thin layer of self love added.
Love Angela
