Reason number gajillion that I love my daughter: “Mom, I want to go to one of those… um… um…. I want to go see them at a umm… ummm.”
I was on the treadmill, watching my Godsmack DVD, as usual, and thought I knew where she was heading with it, but couldn’t believe it.
“You want to go see them in concert?”
HER: “YES!”
ME: “Oh, baby. That is awesome, but…. yeah, no. I don’t think so.”
Then we got to have a nice discussion about mosh pits and huge crowds and crowd surfing and danger and getting smooshed or hurt or any number of things. I told her I’d take her when she was a teenager. I’m freakin’ thrilled she even asked. My little rockstar.

So, tonight I completed my Week 1, Day 3 of the Couch to 5k. I actually did a really long work out because I was trying to hit all of my Activity Points for Weight Watchers tonight so that I can take a break tomorrow. I almost did it. I got 8. I needed nine. If the weather clears up, even a little bit, tomorrow, I’ll take Hexe for a sort walk and call that one Activity Point.
I’m just thrilled that it seems like I’ve almost re-lost the five pounds that I gained because of my period, a trip to Reno and a birthday dinner last night. I hope hope hope I’ll have dropped four of them tomorrow.
I’m just getting anxious because I’m barely on track to still lose 100 by the end of March. I should be able to do it, but it will take some serious committment and work. Like the 80 up to now hasn’t? Wtf? I can do it, if it’s really that important to me. I think it’s a matter of that remaining to be seen. Heh.
