good weekend!

wow, it's been a good weekend so far! *grin*

friday night i went shopping... i was feeling a bit better stomach-wise, so i headed out to the mall. i didn't have any clean clothes to wear, except this cargo skirt i'd bought too small for me (it was skin-tight)... but i tried it on for laughs, and now it fits perfectly! victory! so with my weight-loss high, i decided to be daring and try on some designer clothes (DKNY, geoffrey beene, etc.) and they FIT! wahoo! decided against buying them, because i didn't want to be stuck with expensive clothes i'd only worn once as i lose more weight. i figure i'll wait until i'm a size 6 or so before i start really splurging. did buy some shorts though (i never wear shorts!) and a pair of jeans (i rarely wear jeans), each a couple sizes smaller than i was a month ago. so WW is working!

got weighed yesterday, and i'm down another pound. so that's 7 so far. wahoo! the key this week is exercising... today i'm doing a 5K asthma walk, tuesday i have 3 hours of dance classes and then a dance, and friday night i'll probably go dancing as well. that should help push things along. i figure if i continue losing 1-2 pounds a week, i'll be 30 pounds thinner by the end of the summer. holy crap.

yet another reason...

...why i live in the coolest neighborhood in the world... i was in my favorite coffee shop this afternoon (diesel cafe) getting lunch, and who do i see walking by and window shopping but john malkovich! yes, THAT john malkovich. he moved to this area recently, but i hadn't seen him out and about until today. i did a double-take, not because i saw a famous person, but because of his look -- he was standing in the sunlight, and in the bright light his hair, skin and jacket all looked blindingly white. he looked almost other-worldly. he caught me looking at him and looked back at me for a minute... i felt like a doofus, i almost wanted to run after him and explain that it wasn't because he's a celebrity (i have several famous-y friends, so the celebrity thing doesn't get me going much)... he just looked hella cool. and he rocks.


did my 5K this morning... between that and my walk around the city after, i walked about 6 miles in 2 hours. i am so tired and ouchy! my muscles are going to suck tomorrow...
