I am happy to announce that after 5 months of healthy eating and regular exercise, I finally shed the 10 lbs I gained last summer. Woohoo! One month in Thailand and Vietnam led to 9 months of an unflattering potbelly/lovehandles. Oh how your cheap eats turn me into a gluttonous empress! I bet I won't have this problem in Europe, where I'd be starving from our weak ass dollar. Btw, is anybody as excited about the rebate checks as I am? Not to say its a good idea, because its not. Its an economically stupid idea. But I still like getting free money.

I've rediscovered the joy of earplugs. After 2 nights in a row of my manager's sexcapades, my tub full of earplugs finally came in handy. I even slept through my alarm clock, skipping 2 classes and conveniently waking in time for the Olympic torch rally. The latter was incredibly lame-O. For protesters and spectators, it was soooo disappointing. How can they change the SF route to include running along rocks by McCovey Cove, a giant warehouse, and the pee-stained streets of Van Ness? Tsk Tsk.

5 hour lunch break... this is the life. I've found my new addiction, it's this site where I can put clothes and accessories together like a magazine layout. If only I could actually own all this stuff.

Here's some sets I made that I can only wish to have.
