The big update -- I know you've been waiting by your computer

I've had a case of the Mondays that's been lasting all week. Work is kicking my ample ass, Boo is getting more active and I'm so damn tired -- doc wants me to start taking iron pills for possible mild anemia. But enough bitching. Let's get to la vida Christine:

Easter: Was great. Much too much candy. I have been eating it for breakfast, dinner and snacks, and in a related story, I can't fit into my pants. I undecorated my house today and now everything seems really bare. What's the next big holiday you decorate for, Halloween? Sheesh.

Boo: Mr. 15-Month-Old is just rocking the house. He's walking everywhere and often babbling and singing while he does it. He's still having a good ol' case of separation anxiety when I drop him off at day care, but his teachers tell me they distract him and all is well. They go outside every day to play, which he loves, and he's doing tons of art projects. And he loves to call me da-da, with a big smile on his face. Stinker.

M: Can you believe we are coming up on our seventh anniversary and will have been together 10 years come October? It's just unbelievable to me, especially how much our relationship has changed and matured and grown. As have both of us, because of each other, in large part. M has started his own business, so if you need a good lawyer, let me know.

Work: Very, very, very busy. I love being busy, don't get me wrong, but it's been nutty. And yes, I am grateful I have a job, especially one I've been lucky enough to keep for four and a half years. But whoo.

Casa Christine: Planning to paint her this summer. And possibly put on a new front door. Depending if we can find a good contractor.

So what's up with you?

In the words of Cartman

No...more...pie.

Easter was the biggest eatfest this side of Thanksgiving. I ate from noon Saturday until 9 yesterday night. M gave me a basket full of chocolate, and while I was good overall, I didn't exactly behave with it. Plus I baked chocolate chip cookies. And there were the leftovers my MIL and grandma both made us take home. I swear, no more pie or anything else. I feel like running the Marathon Monday.

Did you have a good Easter?

In this season of rebirth

Here are five cliches I try to live my life by:
  • It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
  • Never complain, never explain.
  • Regret and self-pity are both wastes of time.
  • Some things are just not your problem.
  • You should never feel bad about the way you feel about someone.
And on that feel-good note, happy Easter!

Out, out, damned Peeps

I love Peeps. I know they are horrible for you. I know they are pure junk food. But I love 'em. Love the colors. Love the sugar rush. Love the Easterness of it all.

Anyhoo, M brought home a whole sheet of pink bunnies. I have been picking at them, with the theory that you can eat four of them for three Weight Watchers points. He also brought home these hideous marshmallow things with "chocolate-flavored coating." They really do taste like ass, but they are good in a pinch. I'm trying so hard to drop a few pounds, and I knew I would never do it with those things hanging around. So in the trash they went. I feel better now.
