Horsing around

Happy Tuesday!

Well, I'll go ahead and get my venting out of the way first. Way back in March or maybe April, the ENT scheduled allergy testing for today. I had to discontinue some medications and what not for a week to prepare for the appointment. I took half of a day off work for the appointment. Per usual, I got my appointment reminder phone call on Friday. After riding MARTA down to the appointment, I walked in and the receptionist was like, "Oh, that appointment was rescheduled for Tuesday, June 28 at 9:00 a.m." I was like, "Umm, what?" She said, "Oh, the allergy nurse is on vacation this week." I'M GLAD I CAN READ MINDS. NOT. So, needless to say, I'm not a happy camper. High five on failing.

In other news, the Charley horses are running rampant (AKA galloping). I am literally on the verge of horsing at all times. The weirdest occurrences today were in my hands and in my chin. Yeah, for real. I have been feeling horse-free for the last couple of hours, so I'm hoping this spell is about over... I've never experienced anything like this.

What else? This morning, after I'd been at work for a few hours, I went to Kroger and got biscuits for me and KQ; I had a craving. I also had a major disappointment because I went to two different Krogers, and they didn't have sushi made yet. SIGH.

It's almost my mom's birthday. Happy birthday, cutie! I love you!

I've been pretty inspired to write lately. I haven't exactly pulled the trigger yet, but there is a lot of material brewing. "Brewing" sounds pretty creepy more often than not.

I exercised yesterday morning before work, but I was pretty unsuccessful this morning. I did go up to the fitness center, but I just couldn't make it through. I was feeling a little off-kilter, and I kept thinking I was going to cramp up. Tomorrow...

Well, I guess I'll call it a night. The next several days are gonna be BUSY!

The Braves won tonight. GO TEAM!

CHARLEY HORSE!

Hey!

Man, last night when I was sleeping, I got the worst Charley horse in my leg. There's not a lot that makes me feel as out-of-control as a Charley Horse does. INTENSE!

Let's see... I came back to town on Wednesday; I was at the beach. My cousin and I flew back, so that was an adventure. Airplanes are pretty freaky, but it's not as bad when the entire flight is 42 minutes. The taking off and landing parts are what creep me out, but I remained pretty calm.

I was also in the newspaper on Wednesday. The CFF is hosting an event on Thursday, and the paper came to my [ransacked] place for an interview. You can access the article here. Celeb! I'm excited, too, because it mentions Drew's Crew!

So, the total fishing count for the beach was 12 sharks and 14 non-sharks. The sharks were so cute! I won't say that next year when one of 'em bites my leg off, but I liked them!

Yesterday I ate some funnel cake! I went to a festival and it poured! I don't know why I'm typing so many exclamation marks.

My floor and walls are still MIA right now, but I'm going to get insurance on the horn tomorrow for an update. It's a little frustrating that it's been almost a month since the fiasco and no repairs have been done yet, but I'm hoping we can get the show on the road this week.

I'm about to go to sleep. It's early and all of that, but I'm exhausted! I met KW at Starbucks this morning because I had to work on some stuff for the CF center communications plan. I got a lot accomplished, but I'm still not quite done.

I'm going to get up and exercise in the morning. MARK MY WORDS!

Fruuuuuuuit

Hellllllllllo. I ate a lot today. I'll go ahead and put that out there. I had sushi for lunch, then realized I ate too fast and had time to spare, so I went and got yogurt afterwards. The yogurt was so good - It was mango-flavored and I had pineapple, kiwi, and mango pieces on top of it. Deeeelicious.

Then, yesterday at work, we had a small office celebration, where I munched on just about everthing imaginable, including one of my personal favorites - cheese straws. I also had a beer, and it's just fun to be drinking a beer at work. It feels kind of rebellious the entire time, even though it was sitting there on the table for anyone to take. I was one of only a few people who took one (the only female), but that just shows that I know I'm a hard worker.

I got the worst Charley horse in my left foot yesterday. I mean, I've only had a few in my entire life, but this one was pretty lengthy. It seemed like it was a full two minutes, so it was probably only 30 seconds. I literally felt like my foot might explode. I wish I could articulate the pain in writing.

Roomie and I celebrated with Coldstone last night. She was a sweet angel and brought it home to me, like my little personal shopper. I had watermelon sorbet with gummy bears, like always. I haven't had anything else at Coldstone in at least a year. If it ain't brizzoke, don't fix it.

On Monday I started this plan of drinking more water. Why? Well, I'm in a constant state of dehydration because I very rarely drink water. I have a cup of coffee when I get to work, and then don't even think about drinking until I go to lunch. At lunch, I usually get a water, but then realize when I'm leaving that I forgot about it. On Monday I probably drank between 15 and 20 ounces, which is incredible for me (sadly). Today I forgot about the resolution until a few minutes ago, when I chugged 8 ounces. Maybe I'll be a better H2O-drinker tomorrow.
