need sleep

I should go to bed. Really, I should. But I didn’t get up until after 12 and I’m just not that sleepy.

I am quite inspired by your blogs though. Dipu’s theme of turning points made me recall important moments in my life. Although they seemed normal at the time, now I look back and realize that they were major events that should not be shrugged off.

Lisa’s blog has inspired me to think more about why I eat certain foods and why I eat them in certain amounts. Her diagnosis of emotional eating has made me realize how strongly food is tied to my daily routine. It’s time for me to slow down on the late night dove chocolate snacking and web-surfing. Also, her lament over not exercising enough made me get up from my desk do some yoga before my bedtime shower.

Matt’s blog made me remember my HS and college buddies with whom I would spend many hours drinking beer and “authentic” renfest foot long margaritas while traipsing around the fairgrounds dressed as a beerwench. I miss those friends. I called one of them today.

Tamara’s blog has me looking at my vents suspiciously. *shudder* I hope the cats would notice if something was amiss. I hope.

Babs’s blog brought back memories of scary 80’s fashion. Has it been that long since poodle perms and sky high bangs?

And last but not least, Amy’s blog reminded me that everything comes full circle. It was a little over three years ago that she and her then-boyfriend Chris set Danny and I up on a blind date. Thank God we got off our computers long enough to meet one another. And, as they say, the rest is history.

Wedding update: We’ve set the date for May 6 in Dallas. Since it will be a small family affair, I’m tentatively planning a big party in Austin in a few months. Self-indulgent? A little. Worth it? Hell yeah! Will there be a margarita machine? Of course.
