Pinwheel, pinwheel, where have you been? Hello, how are you and may I come in?
Pinwheel, pinwheel spinning around. Look at my Pinwheel and see what I found.
Pinwheel, pinwheel, breezy and bright. Spin me good morning, spin me good night.

Long-winded? Me? Shut up! No way! That's a lotta intro for a list. :-)
Things that sit as well with me as a bowl full of ice cream in a lactose-intolerant tummy:
- The amount of tired I am currently experiencing. Can't find my energy anywhere. Who stolt it?
- A limited food intake that does nothing towards my goal of not weighing too much for my height/body type.
- The fact that the first two more than likely go together.
- Parking tickets on the beach. Screw you parking authority. You have no authority over me. I spit on your $18 ticket (and then I pay it).
- Today is my last day of peace for 42 more days.
- Florida on fire.
- Nothing has tasted right for the last two days except the bacon I "borrowed" from Lovey's omlette this morning.
- Knowing I need to do things and not having the gumption to do them.
Things that feel like sunshine on my shoulders making me happy:
- Walking into the house and looking at the pretty living room.
- Pole classes even though they remind me that I am a slug that needs to stretch.
- Fire-Roasted Tomato and Olive Oil Triscuits. Deelish. When paired with the Carribbean Chicken salad from Publix, it's like sex in your mouth (and not that he-just-had-asparagus-sex either).
- Writing things that make people say, "DUDE! GROSS!"
- MommaShyner getting an all-clear at her latest doctor's appointment.
- Free scoop of ice cream today at Haagen Dazs!
- Free iced coffee on Friday at Dunkin Donuts. 'Merica runs on Dunkin.
- My soon-to-be-rearranged personal space.
- My negative twin shooting through Miami this week, or at least he'd better.
- QT with Lovey on the balcony.
- Kiddo and her notebook notes.
- The knowledge that I am about to take over the world and there is not a damn thing that anyone can do to stop me.
- Writing things that make people say, "WTF is she talking about?!?!"
- Sunshine on my shoulders.
Things that I am waiting for that are nearly making me explode with anticipation:
- VACATION! In 59 days I will be 1000% loving life, talking to squirrels on the deck while I have my morning coffee, hitting the hot tub at night, the sandbar during the day (along with nekkid boating), and equal world-rocking for Lovey and I.
- MORE VACATION! A mere 262 days until we jet off to Park City where I can have two of the best massages I've ever had. EVER. One to warm me up for busting my ass on the mountain and one for relief from busting my ass on the mountain. No one ever told me that black folks don't do winter sports, so sue me. :-P
- GRADUATION! This one's still pretty far out on the horizon. So many days that I don't have a count on it, but everything in my evil plan is progressing quite nicely.
- MOVING! Miami can kiss the crack of my blac..oh, sorry, I forgot where I was. Right, so I've had enough of Miami and am ready to leave city living.
That's all I've got for you. I love you. What? Oh, nothing.

Let's just jump right in, shall we?
Things that get my panties in a bunch:
- Wedgies. Wait, that's not what I was supposed to say.
- Having to sorta write my job description. Why? Because it points out how much nothing I really do all day.

not-so-realprospect of hitting the lottery. $32 million here I come. - A nice round 80 days left till vacation.

- When I bite into a York Peppermint Patty.....
And, new for me.

Too blah, to think of anything else
I'm slowly coming to the realization that there's no point in loathing things that I can't change. Therefore, future loathing lists will only contain things that I can work on to make better, mainly things about myself. I'm shooting for a more positive tip and all around better nattitude, thanks Dr. Victorine. So, without further ado, the list.
Today's loathes:
- My horrendous habit of procrastination
- The lack of focus I possess
- Sunburn. Must use sunscreen
Today's loves:
- I have my health, a roof over my head, food in my belly and people who love me
- Kiddo - the kid's just funny!
- Mom - she relieves me of my Mom dutes every once in a while so that I can have...
- A relaxing weekend out of the country with Lovey
- Lovey - without whom I would very likely be in a much worse situation (not that I'm in a bad one now)
- A four-day weekend in general
- Future Mom-in-law - she is always looking out for us and enable us to have an awesome summer vacation
- My friends spread far and wide
- My stretchy yoga feeling
- My Zumba sweaty feeling
- Having almost completed this week's classwork
- Four books I picked up at the library yesterday for casual reading this weekend
- Buying cute new shoes for the wedding
- Sirius 23 - Hair Nation
That's what I have for now. I've got to get back to work. So much to do, so little time. 2 days till vacation and 12 until it's once again time to fly. HEP!
