Usually I look forward to the weekend. I get to sleep in and (though this doesn’t always happen) get stuff done around the house. It usually means spending time with friends and just getting caught up with life in general.
However, this weekend I am not really looking forward to.
Pretty much everyone I know will be out of town this weekend. In fact, originally I wasn’t supposed to be in town, but I have a paper due on Monday so I am staying around Burien. I had made plans to go to a corn maze, but I was just informed that the friend that was going to accompany me isn’t feel well so she might not be able to make it. All the lack of plans is starting to make me anxious because this weekend is my 10-year high school reunion that I am desperately trying to avoid. I am avoiding it for purely vain reasons. Let’s just say I was in much better (way better) shape in high school and I am embarrassed for people to see me. It would be one thing if I had my attractive husband by my side because I could say “Yeah, I sorta let myself go, but look at him…he is hot!” Alas, Andy will be out of town this weekend and I definitely do not want to go to this thing solo. Plus it is downtown, and I hate driving downtown at night. Plus plus it costs $50 to get into this reunion and like always money is tight for me right now. But it makes it hard not to go when I will have nothing else going on. I hate that that is the reason I don’t want to go to the reunion. Why can’t it be that I live out of state or that I am saving starving children in Lapland or something? Why does it have to be because I am insecure about my appearance? That is so effing stereotypical! If my life were a movie there would be a montage right now, I would lose 50 pounds and look amazing. Hint hint life! I will take my montage now.
In other news, I am losing my memory. I honestly think I need to see a doctor about it. I have lost my keys, like they literally have vanished off the face of this earth. I put tuna in my closet (don’t ask), and I put A-1 steak sauce in with my pots and pans. I don’t feel more stressed than normal. I haven’t been hit in the head lately. Nothing has changed. I have always been forgetful, but this is getting ridiculous. It is almost like once I sleep my brain resets itself. I know there are certain vitamins or herbs I can take that will help with memory, but for heck’s sake I am already taking something for my thyroid, vitamin D, fish oil, and a multi-vitamin. My doctor wants me to start taking calcium and (embarrassed about this) something for my high blood pressure (damn you genetics!!!). Pretty soon all my nourishment is just going to come by pill form.
I am in a crappy mood as you can tell. Have a great weekend.
