Scared Kitty...

well it appears Griffen does not like thunderstorms. he crawled underneath the bed when the wind and hail started to hit the windows and he hasn't emerged yet. the best he can muster is a paw reaching out when i drop a pillow and go to pick it up.

well i did eat breakfast yesterday as well as everything else on the schedule. i can't believe it's wednesday already. i've been going to bed at 9pm and waking up at 4:30am cuz my body is all wacked out. the scale wont start reliably moving downward until i commit to more diet changes. but what i'm prooving with the ttnw list is that all things eventually change if you consistantly make small changes.

i can't wait for the weekend. i just want to sleep all weekend. its supposed to be sunny and cooler with highs in the 50's and not the 70's we've been spoiled with the last 2 weekends. one thing about me: i can't stand riding in the cold. not that 50 is cold but there something about my upper body getting a chill that is so unpleasant that i would do anything to avoid the slightest chill. this is from a guy who wears shorts in the winter. but if you notice my upper body is usually layered up.

flashback time: it all started one day in 1991. the basketball team was in springfield, mo for the bass pro shops high school tourney. when we go there there was 5in of snow everywhere. now, coming from TX this might as well been moondust to us. well when we get to the hotel it turns out the heater in my room was stuck. and of course being the sophomore forced to stay with the seniors guess who got stuck sleeping on the floor? now, sleeping on the floor wasn't too bad until the other guys decided that because the heater was stuck they would raise the windows to get under the nice covers in bed when it got cold. i didn't know this until to my horror at 3am my hands and feet were literally frozen on the verge of frost bite and my chest was so cold i felt like i was dying. i jumped up closed the window and went to the bathtub/shower and stayed in there until i used all the hot water. i mean like 2 hours and i was still cold. the guys still didn't offer me a bed but they did give me their sweats and an extra blanket to go back to sleep on the floor. this time i slept by the door to the hallway and got warm from underneath the door as the guys still didn't close the window. but to this day that is the coldest my chest has ever been and if it gets close to feeling like that i start to freak out a little.

anyways, duke/unc will be on tonight so i can't wait. slamma jamma baabyy!!!
