171.8

Dear Readers:

I told you that if nothing else, I would post the number. The funny thing is, you'd have to live under a substantial rock to not heard, as I have used the following methods to communicate that sweet number:
1. Facebook
2. Texting
3. Word of Mouth
4. Post-It Note
5. Mind Control
6. Interpretive Dance
7. Smoke Signals
8. Homing Pigeons
9. Craigslist
10. Postcard

I may be exaggerating a bit, but not by much.

So here is the skinny, (I've always wanted to say that with conviction) my class let out early most likely because my professor forgot that he was teaching today and had nothing prepared. We spent the better part of the ninety minutes staring at him.

Bueller, Bueller, Bueller

Just like that. At a point, even he gave up. This messed me up, because I usually take a 15-20min bathroom break. This time when I came back, it was time to go. Naturally I panicked. Was I really in the bathroom for 90min? What would become of me??!! I was happy to find that we were dismissed early but then instantly annoyed since my next class is at 7:30. Now what? What would become of me??!! Another teacher decided to go to the computer lab. I just wanted to find somewhere warm to curl up and FB. He invited me to the computer lab, as everyone knows, computer labs are hella hot.

He is working on something important. Hell, everyone is working on something important, so I didn't think that FB, solitaire or online shopping would look good.
Ta-dah, this is where you come in. I am typing furiously with purpose, trying not to laugh, because I look and sound (tappy tippy tappy) so important and studious.

I look like I am working on a dissertation, which is funny because I do have one to do and I have yet to start. What's the rush? The information is not going anywhere. Freak it.

Back to the matter at hand, because I forgot why I said "here's the skinny". I belong to Weight Watchers online and I noticed one user talking about reaching his 50lb milestone. FIFTY POUNDS!!! I did not even consider losing that much. Remember the goal of 40 in 40 was 40lbs in 40 weeks. That means I would have been at 160lbs. I am only 11lbs away from that.

OMG...the fire alarm. Seriously?? What are we, middle schoolers..? My friend went to check the validity of this madness, in the meantime, I'm still with you.

Anyhow..so if I wanted to do the entire 50lbs, I only have about 18lbs to go. That would be nuts because I'd be like 150lbs. I probably weighed that in (damn alarm...sheesh)seventh grade.
