find out that person that i did the favor for, may still use my suggestions.  i hope so.  there is a still a massive something standing in the way...but oh well. 

i'm hitting my head a few times, not for the idea that people suck, but more clearly, that i cannot believe we are riding 150 miles this weekend!!!!  YIKES!  Who the heck thought of doing this on a weekend that could have had nothing going on in it?  It seems like it's not happening and more importantly, i keep forgetting that we are doing this.  my guess is that by the time that Saturday morning at 4 rolls around...i'm sure i'll remember. 

i'm going to the store after work to check out to see if they have the variety of colors of glasses that i'm contemplating.  here is my justification for these glasses:  1.  they are cute.  2.  i don't have any glasses anymore.  i have lost my oakleys that i had before (as t predicted that i would), but acutally, in my head, i think i know where they may be.  3.  since my mom got diagnosed with macular degeneration, she has been told to tell her spawn (me) to wear sunglasses to reduce the risk.  who am i to argue with this, i ask you? 4.  i think the reason why i don't love sunglasses, is that i feel like i'm closed in and missing something.  the glasses i am looking at are wide open.  and the lens is much lighter than i'm used to, which i like.  the one con that i can think of....is that they are a million dollars almost. 

one of my friends called me to ask me about the plastic surgeon that i went to years ago...to get a minor adjustment.  it was funny....at the time that i altered my appearance, i was so indignant to everyone that would tell me not to.  i found myself taking the opposite role with my friend in this situation.  now, let's get it straight...i'm not all about being fake.  i'm not into face lifts and lipo.   i feel that if something is very bothersome to you about your appearance though, that there should be some consideration about how it could change your attitude and confidence, if you were to change that one thing.  i know, that for myself...i likely will only have changed this one thing about myself and i will not be doing it to any other part of me.  did it do what i set out to?  yes.  i am more confident and my attitude changed considerable afterwards. 

my friend wrote to ask me, however, if she should let her boyfriend pay for part of the surgery, because she had thought that my boyfriend, at the time, had paid for mine.  after i screamed "HELL NO" at her, via text, i explained.  these types of things have to be all about you. it's when they are not, that i think they go bonkers.  you don't know if you will be with this person forever or not and i don't think there are a whole lot of men out there that would be thrilled about knowing that they paid for an ex-girlfriend's cans instead of their current wife's something or other. 

am i a fan of plastic surgery?  no.  do i think that, for some people, it can truly help?  yes.  is it natural? absolutely not.  am i glad that i did it?  yes. 

now excuse me while i go throw up, thinking of sitting in a bike saddle for 7 hours a day.
