Random String of thoughts: 

I'm so excited tonight for Super 8 - it's gonna be awesome.

I have "You Can't Stop The Beat" from Hairspray stuck in my head.

This weekend is also exciting - the a cappella group formerly known as The Cuddlers has a performance tomorrow - then the AIDS/LifeCycle ends - so I'll be cheering on some GMCLA guys there. 

And then Sunday is PRIDE. I've never actually been to LA Pride. I've never marched in a Pride Parade - but this year, I'll be a part of the parade with GMCLA - we're seeing some songs - doing some parade choreography. It's going to be fun. 

I'll try to think of some interesting things to blog about today - this blog is noticeably lacking. 

I'll put a picture of me (why not) here to add some spice. I just took this picture - so don't be too judgmental - it's early in the morning. 

And here's "You Can't Stop The Beat" from Hairspray just so you can jam out on Friday!

How is it Monday morning already? I swear it was just Friday afternoon and I was so happy and I kept myself busy at work while thinking about all the stuff I was going to get done over the weekend. 

Of my extensive checklist of things to accomplish, I may have actually done two of them. Maybe...

I guess "Lose 10 Pounds" will have to wait until next weekend. Who wants IHOP?

You know what's not a good idea when you work in a corporate setting - especially when you are in HR? Being vague when complimenting someone on an accessory!

I wanted to compliment a coworker on a cool necklace she was wearing - but instead of just saying "Hey, your necklace is cool" like any normal person would do, I decided to point to her and motion to my chest and say "I like this. It's pretty." 

Thankfully, she picked up on what I was saying - so it wasn't too awkward. 

But that could have seriously gone awry. 

Could you imaging if I had made the same hand gestures but with an even worse comment like "You should accent this more." 

Lawsuits are fun, right?

For those of you reading my last blog post below - let me just say - it was a joke. I would never contact someone out of the blue through Facebook like that.

Would I contact the mutual friend to find out what the deal is?      Absolutely.

Did I?      No.

...and the search continues...

After a long night of Facebook stalking – I’m contemplating whether I should send the following message to someone. Let me know what you think:

“Hello. Facebook suggested that I ‘Friend Request’ you. We have a mutual friend in (insert name of mutual friend) – and from what I can see from your public profile (which is mainly pictures) you seem pretty cool. Maybe we could grab coffee sometime? Let me know.”

How creepy is that on a scale of 1 to “Violates Facebook's NonCreeper Terms Of Service”

Unfortunately, there aren't any medications that I can take to make me less socially awkward. 

I went to my new doctor today - and he is great - but I'm a moron. Why didn't I just ask the nurse to measure how tall I was? Why did I need to tell her the entire story about how I think I'm 5'11" but my boss says I am only 5'10" and can't we just compromise on 5'10.5" --- there was no need. None whatsoever. 

And, as predicted, the doctor told me I need to start exercising - which I knew he would - but it's just always so painful to hear, you know? 

So I'm counting tonight as my last night of actual freedom before I start really (seriously) watching what I eat and working out. And with that in mind - I'm heading to Burger King. TRIPLE WHOPPER!!! YEAH!!!  (I'm not really heading to Burger King now, but I most likely will have a burger tonight.) 

Alright, well, if you couldn't guess by the string of "HA's" in my last post - I wasn't really planning on going to the gym tonight. And I didn't. (Yay - expectations MET!)

However, the gym will be in my future - it's time I actually took some initiative to start working out - and not just because I feel I could have a better body, but also because it's just a good thing to do. I'm not getting any younger and while I don't have any health issues now, that's not to say that a jog here or there won't help me ten/twenty years down the line.

Plus, I am having some guilt issues right now. I have a physical tomorrow with a new doctor and I'm sure he is going to ask how active I am - and I can't make the same "as active as my imagination" joke again - because it's just sad now that I'm no longer 14 years old. 

Today - I came home  from work - and I was starving. But I decided to quickly sit on my balcony and finish a quick chapter in my book (Game Of Thrones - I can't wait to see the HBO mini-series) while the sun set. 

Then I ate some food while watching Parks & Recreation (a great show). 

And then, instead of doing the ten jillion other chores I could (or should) have done, I just played the piano - for about an hour and a half. And my thoughts are that the dishes will still be there later. The receipts I need to gather for my taxes will be there. The clothes I need to fold will be there - and sure, I could have easily gotten most of those things done in that hour and half. But would I be as relaxed as I am right now?   -  No.

Would I feel as lazy as I do right now?   -  No. Because I would have gotten shit done instead of just sitting on my ass and playing songs that I've played seventy times before. I'm a lazy asshole. ugh. This is why I'm single...
