Sweet revenge

nainadg

Ooooffff….why is it that despite my best intentions I end up getting annoyed with J on thursdays and fridays. It seems like by thursday night my bull shit ignoring tactics have completely broken down and i can’t deal with his irritibality as well. I swear I get really annoyed with him only once a week and then i yell and he says something sarcastic and we have a mini fight…is that normal? To have your partner get on your nerves once a week….I guess it could be worse.

Last night he was just in a bad mood because his phone charger wouldn’t work. To me thats no reason to be upset, you just get a new phone chargers, why waste valueable time being bitchy over something that can be easily fixed. I don’t understand boys. I told him “we need to talk” today and I could tell he was upset…so i’m going to spring a “oh baby i love you so much” ..and be totally sweet during our “talk” and not mention anything bad….i’m evil…its going to mess with his head ….but revenge will be mine ….ha ha ha. But seriously it will also eliminate bickering on a friday night and he will feel extra guilty for being bitchy last night. Ta Da! Mission Accomplished.

Don’t have too many plans for the weekend yet…but hopefully hanging out and just not dealing with work will calm me down. I do love the boy…he just frustrates the hell out of me.

I just looked through ebay and ogled tons of stuff I want, but I’ve decided I won’t buy anything super cute, till I am close to goal weight and can really enjoy it.

Still on the quest for a cute pair of shoes….Any shoe angels out there who can give divine directions to a cute and affordable pair….Kate spade and Manolo Blahniks and Jimmy Choos are out of my league

Food

1 peanut butter and jelly sandwich
Thai fish and noodles ( snooty waitress, but it curbed my appetite)
2 slices pizza
3 breadsticks
2 margaritas
1 beer
lots of tobacco and other smelly stuff

Sore

nainadg

Went to kickboxing yesterday….it was soooo hard and kicked my ass, also ran around the indoor track and walked for a while. I feel really sore now, but optimistic that i might finally lose some weight.

I was really psyched for the new cycle of ANTM and watched it last night. But I don’t think i like the 20 semifinalists to 14 finalists format. Why not just pick 14 in the beginning and let them be the finalists, that way they can get a better photo shoot in the first episode and they can also give more background on the semi finalists. These are my favorites so far

Brittaney – She is really pretty and seems funny and weird
Naima- She looks really exotic and cool
Tiffany- Dramatic Improvement from last season
Brita- Looks like a “model”

Don’t have anything too interesting to talk about today!

Thursday food

1 peanut butter and jelly sandwich
1 philly chicken sandwich
1/3 can Tuna
Chips ( a lot)

Green Hookah

nainadg

Sooooo tired.

Last night we went over to the green street house and hung out with those guys. It was mostly fun, other than when their research conversations got too full of jargon and I stopped paying attention. They also got a new roommate who seems pretty cool, almost fits the CS role /niche in this developing clique. I also smoked some Green Apple Tobacco from a hookah last night. Wasn’t a super buzz… i think it was the novelty factor that made it cool! Also it made me think that my great grandpa probably used to drag the hookah while watching baijis perform. What can i say… 1/4 of me is from that kind of stock…should i be proud or dismayed…

Also…question of the day …is cuddling with a friend of the opposite sex cheating? especially if you are in a serious relationship…hmmmm? I used think it wasn’t a big deal and i used to cuddle with a male friend when I first started dating J, but now i would feel very very strongly against it. Maybe I am overly conservative and possesive….i just want my partner to me the most intimate with me. I’ll have to think more about this. At this point if J were to have a super close female friend, who wasn’t my friend too, I would have huge issues with it and I think he would feel the same. Sometimes I think he and I are too uptight .

Food Intake
1 mcdonald sausage biscuit
1 hash brown
1 scoop chocolate eclair icecream w/ cone
1 chicken soft taco
6 tortilla chips
2 tortillas
Paneer Butter Masala ( ready to eat )

I am going to a kickboxing class later today, psyched about that. Also the raleigh gym will probably be renovated by next week and have new equipment….it will be so nice to watch tv while treading up and down the mill

Back to reality

New Acquisitions : Durham County Library card. Its bronze and actually looks pretty hip for a library card. Its just too bad that my local branch is really small and lacking in good collections. Other than my mysteries and fluff requirements, I will have to depend on Duke Libraries.

One of the coolest things I did after I got my library card and checked out books was to go to this cool cafe, I ‘ve been meaning to check out forever and read while eating lunch. Oh it felt so good. Sometimes I think, I could get used to being a lady of leisure, but maybe if i had to do it indefinitely, it would drive me and everyone around me absolutely insane.

Watched Little Black Book in the afternoon. Better than I thought, not exactly a romantic comedy , so i don’t know, why they marketed it like that. I think it would have done much better if they had marketed it as more of a dark coming of age story. Brittany Murphy is awesome. She looks like an air head barbie…but she is actually funny in a “laugh with her” way , instead of “laugh at her” way.

Spent the rest of the day hanging out and later drank some guiness with J, later at night.

All in all…great Sick day

Hookey

So I didn’t go to work today! Yesss!!!! I really needed this day off, so i don’t feel too bad. I am just going to be by myself and catch up with me today. Its been so long since I have been home mid morning on a weekday! It feels unbelievably decadent.

Speaking of decadent though, Saturday Nights’ sushi was out of this world we ate at Kanki‘s. Yummmm….aghhhh…those are my homer simpson eating good sushi noises. i was fairly good rest of the weekend, i guess.

Saturday

1 biscuitville ultimate sausage biscuit
1 hashbrown
1 scoop Haagen Daaz Rocky Road
Sushi
Sake

So over all not really bad. Also bought 2 new tee shirts from JC Penney, but the stupid weather won’t allow for any flirty/fun dressing. I also went into Express on saturday, and I just can’t find anything fabulous in there. They raised their prices, but the clothes didn’t get any cuter. My new fave store though is United Colors of Benetton, but i didn’t really get a chance to look on saturday

Sunday, I just worked out, got a hair cut and made some Pad Thai for dinner. It was sooooo good, and I had leftovers for breakfast this morning.

Sunday
1 blimpie sandwich
Pad Thai
Spring rolls
Chai
Hot and Sour Soup

Monday:
Pad Thai ( lots of it)
1 cup chicken gumbo
1 pita with lots of hummus
1 huge bowl indian bhel
1/2 filet tilapia (not cuz i am cutting portions, but it just didn’t taste right)
more pad thai
salad

1 cup coffee
1 hot dog w/ cheese and may
1 bag chips
1 subway italian sandwich
some indian snacks

Since i got the new account, we are going out for sushi tonight. I can’t wait, its been atleast good 6mos since i have had sushi. Looking forward to a little alcohol consumption tonight as well.

KD told me last night that she was Eric on campus, it weirded me out for the split second that she told me and then it didn’t really mean anything anymore. I don’t even really think about him anymore other than passing thoughts about jokes he made etc. God I’m even dealing with ex boyfriends maturely.

During lunch today, I bought this new maybelline mousse makeup to play with. Figure I ‘ll play around with the cheap stuff before investing in a clinique bottle.

ANTM is starting next week…can’t wait for pretty bitchy girls being catty…..yay!!!

Here are some shoe ideas for this weekend, if i do end up going shoe shopping this weekend. Although, I haven’t really seen anything I absolutely love lately.

I do like these new wedges though and Steve Madden always has some good stuff, so maybe I’ll check out Hechts too.

Thanksgiving Week

nainadg

Okay so, the housing situation is under a major renovation. Big changes ahead….I have an impeding sense of gloom. Yeah yeah yeah…change is supposed to be good but I’m still a little nervous about this overhaul. Anyway more on that later, when things actually start to happen

So Imade a thanksgiving feast for J and me this thanksgiving. This is the first thanksgiving where i actually made a turkey roast and everything. A lot of things came from the box but, J isn’t overly fussy and traditional is so boring anyway. Here is my
