So, I gave Morgan a box today. Being it was her birthday it was not totally unexpected.

The note inside, however, was.

OK, who do I know on here who plays the SD Gundam online game? I think I'm going to give it a swing.

You can probably guess my username.

So, not quite a year ago I was at 384.

Today, I'm at 314.

Wow. :)

So, my paid time ran out on LJ.

I'm debating buying more. I still use the site to keep up with a few friends, but I'm nowhere near the level of "power user" I once was - a lot of my writing is channeled into The Cannon, Twitter, Facebook, etx.

I think I may go a month and see how much it really bothers me (if it bothers me!) to be missing the paid features. If it really makes a big difference, we'll re-up. Otherwise, mooch ahoy?

For every moment of depression, despite every setback, in spite of every obstacle, this is a good life, filled with amazing people, and incredible love.

I'm posting this everywhere I write so I won't let myself forget that during the moments when I need it most

30  
OK, so I'm working on my birthday, which I admit is a little lame for me, but I had a very good "family" birthday yesterday to make up for it, and planning a "friends" party in a couple of weeks. :)

So far, 30 feels OK. Older, wiser, etx.

My big project, aside from continuing to work on my weight loss / fitness and a plan I'm developing to remodel the bathroom shower, is that my grandparents announced last night that (pending successful resolution to my uncle's hip replacement and his own weight loss battle), they want to go to Norway in 2012 to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary there with all of us.

So, I need to renew my passport anyhow, but I guess I have to start working on saving for that. :)

Dad  
After going to the gym, I picked up a cake from Whole Foods and went over to celebrate Dad's birthday.

It was pretty low key - cake, some ice cream, and a phonecall from my grandparents.

But during the phone call, my granma said something that summed it all up.

"We're just glad that we got the chance to celebrate another birthday with you, and we're looking forward to many more."

It's been not quite two years since we nearly lost him. I'm so, so glad that we're celebrating a birthday tonight, and not mourning his passing.

*grump*

Couldn't weigh in at the gym today because Jason was out for the holiday.

The home scale says I gained four pounds.

On the other hand, my pants continue to get looser, and my shirts are getting baggier.

I'm just going to try to relax and enjoy myself during the holiday, and really work on pushing through that last 35 pounds in the new year, and then go from there.

New CPAP chip is here - they also sent a new mask and hose kit. Don't really need the new mask yet, since I just had my old one replaced a bit ago, but the new hose is a little longer, so I'll use that.

I was also asked to send them back my old chip - they'll download my usage info to see how it's been working. I assume that my sleep doc will talk to me about what they find when I go to see her in February.

So, a little while back I decided to take some advice from E. of Geek's Dream Girl, who I've gotten to know on Twitter because of Jeni's ice cream, of all things, and decided to try doing an OK Cupid profile.

What I have learned is that I am very, very hesitant to be the first person to send a message, but if a girl messages me back it feels much more comfortable writing to her.

Fear of rejection maybe?

Also, on a related note, hey, I got messaged out of the blue by two cute girls today. My life is awesome. :)
