Vegetarian week - still going strong! I did the first week of this month without too much trouble, and that means I'm 2/3 of the way through the year. Holy crap, am I going to actually keep the eat more vegetables/vegetarian week resolution?
Pin-Up Shoot - Anna and I had our shoot. And, it ain't bragging if it's true - our untouched pictures look hot. I'll throw them up here as soon as I get them back from Stacey. In other picture taking news, I got my headshot back from the NO H8 campaign and I love it! I do think that it's funny that with my white white skin, a white shirt, and a white background I look just a little bit like a floating tattoo, hair, and eyes. Still, it makes me feel a bit like a big time super liberal celebrity, and at the end of the day, isn't that what it's really all about?
I guess while I'm doing all the superficial resolution checks I should mention that dressing up and feeling hot is working out a-okay. It doesn't hurt that I've lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 - 20 lbs since June. I feel better, although my clothing is not such a good fit anymore. I'll live - THESE ARE GOOD PROBLEMS TO HAVE. Am I right? Of course I am.
Let's check in with the other resolutions, shall we?
Jam of the Week - Abandoned, as was the 30 Day Song Challenge. I got busy right around the time it asked me for a song to describe myself. No matter how you answer that question it comes across as cocky, or inspires a raised eyebrow and a bemused "really?" from the peanut gallery. Maybe I'll pick it up and finish it off. I'm honestly not losing a wink of sleep over it.
Three NYC trips - Here's the thing about doing a solo show: THIS ONE PROBABLY WON'T HAPPEN. If we're lucky we'll get in one visit before the end of the year. It's a bummer because I really wanted to see the Alexander McQueen show at the Met, and it closes tonight. Maybe I'll do something irresponsible and use a few vacation days, take some time off during the week and just go. That sounds like it might work. Maybe? File this under things that I'll be daydreaming about while actually being tied to a desk.
Monthly Real Date with D'Paul - Sort of. We're bad planners, so none of this has ever been as organized as my compulsions would prefer. But I did take him for mussels and beer in DC last weekend and we had a marvelous time. I paid the bill while he was in the restroom, so he couldn't be a gentleman and steal it away. This is a game we play, stealing the check. We are both exceptional at it and each enjoy stealing the other one's purchases so that we can give a surprise gift instead. We are adorable like that.
Do weekly body work - Humbug. We played tennis again and had a great time, then the devil went down to Baltimore and it's been ungodly hot so we've not been back outside. My job has sent me on outreach a lot lately, so I've been walking in this awful weather. That's exercise! Also, I have blisters from the heels I'm required to wear. Yea maintaining dress codes in inappropriate situations!
Clean the apartment - Nope.
