Definitely excited about the day off today. Although Bobby is still sleeping away, I've already been up and got my morning routine out of the way. I'm experimenting with different workout routines, and I think I've pretty much got it down as far as what I prefer to do. A friend mentioned exercisetv.tv for free videos, and I've been trying out a few different trainers to see who's style I like best.

I'm working as hard as I can to get down to 210, because my reward for that level is a new haircut, which I really need. I decided since I want one so bad, might as well make it a milestone reward. I'm hoping to be there by June 13th so I can get it styled for my first real day of work on the 14th. I have 8.2lbs to go to reach it.

I also caved in and took my ring back. Not only do I feel utterly naked without it, I was feeling other weird feelings like sadness and guilt. I know it's just a ring, but I'm proud to wear it and I'm actually proud to be "Mrs." Weird, huh? So the final reward is changed slightly. I still get a real proposal, but Bobby's under orders to pick out a new ring, that he chose by himself, and surprise me with it. I think that's a lot better, especially since the rings we have now were bought as engagement rings anyway (and I picked them both out). Then, we'll hire the wedding planner (or maybe I should call it a handfasting planner?) and get the ball rolling on the "real" wedding. Am I cheesy for wanting to keep the same date? We'd have the ceremony on December 31st again, because I think there's some symbolism in that. But what do I know?

I ate peas and throughly enjoyed them last night for the first time in my life, literally. Ask my parents. I've never, ever liked peas. But I pan-fried them on the stove top with some other frozen vegetables and they came out really sweet and not mushy at all. I was really impressed. I'll have to eat like that from now on.

Well, I have to wake up my husband. It's our only day off together for probably at least the next few weeks and I'm going to make the best of it. Tonight, I'm going to cheat a little bit and go out for 50 cent wings, because we haven't gone in a while. Don't worry, I'll be sure to eat all the celery too! :P
