- I've lost about 15 pounds or so in the last month. Randomly, the most notable losses have been from my fingers and my feet. My rings fly off if I shake my hand to hard (like the reflexive shaking you do when you slam your thumb in your desk drawer) and spin around on my fingers when I applaud anything.

- I got my first ticket in 9 years last Saturday, and for the dumbest reason ever- stopping behind the limit line at a stop sign. I stopped at the corner rather than at the line, and there happened to be a cop right there. Grrr.

- My AIM, for whatever reason, is blocking my friend's sister from IMing me. The other day Dee had to set up a chat between her, her sister, and me so that her sister and I could talk to each other (I needed to ask Jen a favor).

- I have abused my fingers more in the last four days than I probably have in the last four years combined (not in severity, just in sheer volume). In addition to stabbing myself with an embroidery needle at least twice a day, I've slammed my thumb in my desk drawer, and my fingers in a supply cabinet the shower door. I've also nicked a knuckle on our Christmas tree stand cut the back of an index finger on a broken ornament. I also got my finger stuck while doing something last weekend, but I can't remember what.

- I punched myself in the mouth putting on my bra the other day. Apparently it's dangerous to be me.

... or it's just dangerous to have your boobs. That last line made me laugh.

Also? I got your card. But you didn't sign it. Sillyhead.

Don't get too close. You might rub off on me!

Congrats on the weight loss. Doing good.
