12:13 pm I had a somewhat shitty weekend…it was christmas…there were perks…but the holiday was overshadowed…I did something incredibly stupid last Thursday night…especially for someone who prides herself on, well, not being stupid…I suppose we all make mistakes, but this one was big…I got in trouble… real trouble…I'm not talking about a parking ticket here…so, without going into too much detail, I'll just say that it's going to be a long couple of months…but, a sober couple of months…I've been drinking too much anyway…the beer that I've consumed the past four months is congealed around the middle of my body…in other words, I've got a beer gut…it's kind of gross, but no one has to look at it but me, so I haven't had too many problems…the bottom line is, I could really benefit from cutting back in that area…when I drink beer, I drink beer…it's unfortunate that I like it…and I like it a lot…I like one after another after another after another after another…and now, well, I have little to no desire to drink…the true test will be to see if the desire comes back once I'm around my beer-drinking friends…

anyway, not everything about the weekend was bad…it was christmas…I did get presents…I got a scanner…woo hoo…I'm going to be able to put pictures up soon…as soon as I have time, that is…I also got like ten gift certificates…half of them are from old navy…not a place I usually shop, but I'm sure I'll find something…and I got some new cologne…it was much needed - now I'll have to fight 'em off with a stick…that's sarcasm…

on another note, I decided to count the number of times a family member asked me if I had a boyfriend - I counted 12…that's way too many…I was running out of answers…they all asked the same way, "so, any guys up in iowa city?"…and when I said, "nope," they replied with, "why not? there have to be guys you like?"…..and when I said, "nope" again, each and every one of them said, "I know a couple"….i mean, really, I don't' need my aunts setting me up…especially with boys…and I hate to see the look on my mom's face every time I answer those kind of questions…I can tell she's hoping I'll say something that suggests I've at least been "giving guys a try"…but, really, I gave them a "try"…and that's not what this is about anyway…ugh…
