another week begins

The picture above was taken from my new phone. It was actually my little sister's old phone, but she upgraded and gave me hers. That's where I spend most of my time. It's where I read, where I think, where I watch the sunset while listening to my IPOD. It's where me and my friends smoke our cigarettes and drink our beers late into the night. It's where I sit every morning before work with my VIA instant coffee in one hand and my morning cigarette in the other. *sigh* I'll miss that porch. There are so many good memories there. Of course, I won't miss it for a while--because I'll be living here for quite some time longer, I fear. Mom called me a roommate today, which was kinda weird. But they do sorta treat me like one. They stay outta my business, let me do my own thing, acknowledge that I'm an adult--albeit a poor adult--and let me make my own life.

It's 9:00 at night and I'm about to go to bed because I have to be at work at 5:30 tomorrow morning. It should be a pretty easy week. I think I have Wednesday off? Or maybe Thursday. Hell, I don't know. This week should be pretty good, though. I've bought all my groceries: fish fillets, eggs, bread. Yep, that's it. I'm hoping to lose three pounds this week. I should be able to. I'd LOVE to be at 135 by Thanksgiving. Of course, by the end of Thanksgiving I'll have gained it all back--but that's what Thanksgiving is all about, at least in my family, so it's expected. There'd be something wrong if I didn't gorge myself for once. Most people probably think I eat a lot all the time. I actually don't eat a whole lot. At work I'm known as one of the Snackers (a select few of us who snack on marked-out pastries throughout our shifts), and some people have asked how I don't gain weight. It's easy: while I may snack a lot at work, I rarely snack here at home. I usually eat dinner around 5-6:00 and that's it till the next morning. Anyways, good night.
