Man, the stars are aligned for me today for some reason--

Some woman, I definitely do not know, left me a lovely voice mail--a poem she wrote herself about love, and then she said "I love you. Call me when you get the chance." Um...well...this is so sad! WRONG PERSON! (I sent her a text message, have no idea if she got it--but hey, it was lovely and I enjoyed it very much!)

Then, Steve Kuzma, one of the Real Estate dudes from BNSF Railway I do tons of map work for (he gives me the greatest challenges--real puzzlers, and I always, always figure it out--which is why he comes to me lol). He told me, "I should bring you latte and a box of pastries for all you do for me!" I laughed and told him, no thanks, but a basket of fruit? That would be awesome! He looked at me all puzzled, then REALLY looked--and said WOW, you look fantastic!! (snort) Guys are so observant--the boss didn't realize, either, until one of the crazy women at Staubach pointed it out.

AND THEN!!!!!!

Went to Firehouse Deli and got a salad--they have great ones--and when I told the lady "no cheese, chili or salad dressing" she looked at me and said "weren't you here a few weeks ago? You look fabulous!"

AND THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leaving the deli, walking in front of the stores, some chick calls out from her car, "You look really cute!" I turned around and said, "Excuse me?" All puzzled here... And she said, "You look really cute!" I said THANKS! And left, laughing, escaping across the field.

3 women (ok really 2) and 1 old RR dude...but hey, I love every second of it.

Beats what happened in the ladies restroom yesterday, being told by one of the Staubach ladies, "So, I hear you're either sick, or starving yourself. Which is it?" GEESH!!!! I've lost 33 lbs since January 1. Yeah, that is fast, that is alot, but I have given it 100000%. It works.

I feel like one of those stupid ads in magazines, "I lost 30 lbs in 6 weeks, ask me how!" But the funny thing--I have, and all by eating fruits, veggies, and bison/chicken/fish/shrimp. Time to stabilize though--I do miss cheese!!!!

Hi Carolyn, I can't tell you how happy it made me to see what you'd written here... It's wonderful to know that what I wrote DID mean something to someone and wasn't simply annoying everyone. (I mean, you have to admit it -- I wrote pretty depressing stuff most of the time.) I feel like I have no life whatsoever half the time, so it feels weird to hear that someone actually likes reading about it. Heh :)

I really am sorry about leaving (especially so abruptly), but my life is really difficult at the moment, and let's just say that I needed a break from journals altogether. If I have nothing nice to say, than I'd rather not say anything at all, which I'm sure you understand. As I told people on my Facebook profile, I will DEEPLY miss LJ as I have been here for years and years now, and find it incredibly hard to not be reading my friends' insightful entries on a daily basis as I used to. But... I need this. At least for the time being. I need time to simply heal.

As I told you before, I would never force any of my friends to join FB if it's not their cup of tea. However, I must say that I'm crap when it comes to e-mail, phones or snailmail for that matter, so this does mean that staying in touch with you may get quite difficult :( I will try my best though, because I'm not willing to let you slip away!

*hugs real tight* Don't you worry, Po is still breathing.
