A few things about me, and a preview.

First, a few random things about me:

1. I don't respond well to people who come on strong before they know me.

I don't care if we're new girl-friends, or you're a guy who's interested in me. If you come on strong I will pull away. We just met and you're texting me the next day...5...10 times. Obviously you're stalking me and my gut reaction is to run like hell. Shudder.

A few months ago a casual friend of mine obviously wanted to be best friends, and she wanted it now. She texted constantly. She invited me over all of the time. So I stopped answering her calls and texts. I can't handle it. It took me a year to say I love Jernae and I lived with her! It took me 2-3 years to say I love you to some of my best friends, KKKJ, but I was younger and much more afraid of that kind of affection back then. I don't develop best friends over night.

Don't even get me started with men. Yes, ask me out. Yes, flirt with me. Yes, text and call me. No, don't do any of those things all the time. No, don't comment on my facebook photos from two years ago when we don't ever talk in real life. No, don't shower me with affection or gifts when you haven't even asked me out.

This is from Just Like Heaven, such a cute movie! This is the skanky neighbor. Sometimes when you come on too strong it just makes you extremely undesirable

I guess that's the worst part. Guys who like me, but don't have the balls to ask me out. I bet if half of the guys I say I am not interested in just grew a set and asked me out, I'd say yes and reconsider. But being a chicken + a creeper = no good.

2. I am allergic to bell peppers...well let's just say they make me so miserable and sick that I tell people I'm allergic. It's awful. But, I discovered recently that I like certain hot sauces...just not Tabasco sauce...bleh.

3. Uncleanliness makes me anxious. I really figured this out this year and it explains a lot about my youth and my moods. I don't think I'm a neat freak. I can handle dishes in the sink...but when there is mess or filth in my living space it makes me nervous, anxious, and even depressed. Cleanliness helps me organize my mind, mood, and life in general.

4.Today I wore a pair of pants that I bought in the 8th grade. At the time they fit me like a sausage with a mega muffin top. Today I decided that I have to get rid of the pants because they're too big. VICTORY!

And now for that preview...
JUST KIDDING!

In 10 pounds I will have reached a huge weight loss mile stone. When I reach that weight I will tell my readers how much I weigh. I will talk about my weight loss journey thus far, and I will tell you about my plans to lose the rest of the weight. I will probably also have some sort of photo weight loss time line. The sooner I lose those 10 pounds the sooner I blog, wahoo!
