No picture today

Good thoughts for the day:

• Random good mood, and on a Monday! I woke up at the boyfriend’s house and wasn’t in a great mood at first because I am really not a morning person, but I’ve now gotten over my wake moods, have had a couple cups of coffee, watch the Today Show and am watching the Bonnie Hunt Show.
• I get 4 days of no rehearsal or performance! We opened on Thursday and had a pretty good first weekend. Not huge audiences, but we had good audiences, we even found out that the author came from NY to come see us perform.
• Not last week, but the week before, boyfriend said the forbidden words….I love you. Yup. He came to pick me up from rehearsal and I told him to stop worrying about me driving on my sprained ankle and he said “I love you too much to stop worrying….(sigh) see, I knew I was going to be the first to slip.” Lol. You don’t slip on those words. No worries all! I didn’t leave him hanging. As I think I’ve told you before I’ve been wanting to say it, but I wasn’t sure if it was okay, if I was ready to say it, but then he said it, which meant I could say it. He’s so cute, his face always looks so excited when he says it.
• Without my prompting, the other night boyfriend and I were drinking at a friend’s party and he goes “I need to start working out. I can lose weight really quickly if I just work out. Now that I’ve met someone who loves me for me I can get all buff. Will you still love me when I’m all buff and ripped?” So, I’m excited that he’s going to try to get healthy, and I didn’t have to ask him to or anything.

Other thoughts:

• I’ve been freaking out about my weight lately. I’m at 120 right now, I want to be 100, the smallest I’ve been is 109. It’s been hard because walking and cardio is painful with my ankle being sprained. And yeah, I can do calisthenics, but that doesn’t do much to actually burn fat. So, I’m going back to cutting my caloric intake down big time until I can start exercising again.  I’ve been drinking a lot of water because of the show, but I’ve also been craving soda and juice lately which I know is the worst because we forget the calories that are in beverages pretty quickly. Like, I already feel guilty for having creamer in my coffee. But I have yet to eat anything so I can’t feel too guilty yet, right?
• I am extremely biased. My biases include : assuming I’m not going to get along well with someone if they are a republican, a christian, or have a southern accent. It’s not that I won’t give these people a chance, but my first impression of them isn’t usually a positive one.
• Saturday was Reno Pride. I marched in the parade, and our show performed a couple songs. Then I took a nap and went and performed the play that night, and then went out to a gay bar where I had to be rescued from a girl who wouldn’t stop dancing with me or staring at my boobs (and I was dressed fairly conservatively). Also got stopped by an SUV who wanted to pick me and a friend up as prostitutes (um, no), a guy we couldn’t understand was offering or asking for something at a gas station we stopped out so my friend said “I’m gay, so no thanks”, we saw a who block sidewalk covered with homeless people sleeping in sleeping bags, we went to a not gay friendly bar for about 15 minutes and got stared at, it was an interesting night.
• It’s almost Burning Man time!!! So excited and scared at the same time. I just want to wear lace shirts and dresses the whole time. I wonder if I’d get a lace tan. Would that look funny or cute? Duhno!
