I must have shocked that bug right out of my system last Friday night. It must have fled, screaming in terror, “She’s stark raving bonkers! Save yourselves! Run awaaaaaay!”

I crashed on my friends’ couch at around 8 AM but any sleep was impossible. My friends’ maids were up and about and my mind was racing with a thousand thoughts per minute. I got back to my place at around 2 PM but had to try to stay awake because, the last time I slept early which was when I was feeling really sick last Wednesday, I slept at 8 PM and woke up, refreshed and fully rested – at 11 PM. Doh!

True to form, I did such a good job of trying to stay awake yesterday, that I only finally got to sleep at 5:30 this morning. Geezoos. The maid woke me up for lunch at noon.

All of this is to say why I am struggling to get my lazy, fat ass over to FTX for a workout. Ugh. I know it’s long overdue but it’s soooooooo faaaaaar. And I can’t find my head.

The only motivation I can think of is that I can swing by Carmen’s Best afterwards and pick up a tub of ice cream.

Oh, yes. As you might have guessed, the diet never happened. You know that clause about eating at new places? Well, that’s what I did. A LOT. Good grief.

Well, I did say I’d start after the holidays, right? Did I specify which holiday? Because there’s a freakin’ holiday around every corner in this country. And the new year really hasn’t begun until Chinese New Year, right? … Wait, are there any other new years I’m missing? I should make allowances for all cultures, no?

Perhaps I should just wait till the damned Mayan calendar is through and then I can really get a fresh start.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’ll get back to it.

Tomorrow.

Really. I will.

It’s going to be the perfect day to start, actually. It’s a Monday, the first day of the Year of the Black Water Dragon… Plus, it’s tomorrow.

I just really really really want a tub of ice cream NOW. Please. But I really really don’t want to work out first to get it. Or get out of bed.
