Baby, Maybe, Someday

I am:
- Watching Metal Mania on VH1 Classic
- Writing the next chapter of my epic fanfic that not too many people seem to give a shit about
- Thinking that I should do some transcribing, since I am actually being paid to do that and I do need actual money to go on a week long road trip in 2 weeks.

But anyway! I heard this song on Metal Mania called "Tears of Fire." OMG, so freaktastically ballady and metally and awesome, complete with the guys with big hair in leather. The video has the essential elements of being half onstage with the guys rocking out, half on the road in the big tour bus showing what life is like for the big metal giants Keel. Have you ever heard of Keel? I haven't, but I just downloaded like 12 of their songs from iTunes. You gotta love modern technology.

In real, relavant news, I am losing weight. Ever since my body decided to rebel against me 2 weeks ago, making my neck hurt so bad that I actually threw up from the pain, I have been trying to eat better. And so far, I have been doing okay with that. I remember the vow I made to myself on my 27th birthday...I thought, what better present could I give myself on my 28th birthday than to have lost weight and actually feel good about myself at that time? I am sorta kinda on the way. I mean, tonight I went shopping and there were so many delicious temptations I could have let myself succumb to...Steak and Shake, Freebirds, El Fenix, pizza at the mall, just about anything, really. And instead, I came home and ate a hot dog. Well, 2 hot dogs. And some chips. But that's about 1,000 calories less than what I would have brought home with me. And that, friends, is progress.

That is all.
