Kicked out. Again. (Jan. 7)

Well we got booted out of the Little Theatre again. You want to know why? Because it's going to take some dude a week and a half to wax the floors. SERIOUSLY?? I think they should have done this earlier in the renovation process. I swear to God it takes workers like 70 years to build something nowadays. This traffic light near my house? Took 3 months to put up. I would think it would take at the very least a month, maybe a month and a half, to re-pave the street, plug in some lights and bam.

I know I'm being unfair and rude to the workers who do these things. But I'm just fed up with pushed back construction schedules!

My school got a new gym, one smaller than the older one we have. That thing took practically a year to build. True that's something that isn't easy to set up. It's not Legos or Lincoln Logs. And I know problems come up. But when a school on the North side of town gets the exact same gym and has it up and running in 6 months, what does that tell you? Sorry to rant. It's just annoying to finally be in an excellent acting space, only to be kicked back into a dinky classroom. Calm yourself Iago... I mean Damian. Huuuummmm. Huuuuum. OK, little better. *Rubs bridge of nose in annoyance*

Besides such nuisances, today went fairly well. Almost got my iPod taken away by our assistant principal. The jerk one, who from what I hear used to, or still does, drugs. But who knows. Cholla and my school district are wack as hell. Luckily he let me off with a warning. But I can't help it! Music helps my day flow better. And gives me something to think about.

Had that doctors appointment today and man am I in trouble. I thought my triglycerides were bad, but I had no idea how bad. I think the norm is 210 or something around there. Guess what mine were? Like 358. I know. CRAP. And my cholesterol was nothing to cheer about either. He almost assigned me cholesterol medicine! That really scared me. And of course he suggested diet and exercise. In the past I've watched what I ate and with volleyball I had some regular sweaty time. But recently I have been naughty and just eating whatever the hell looked good.

So seeing as this is barely the start of a new year, I am making a pledge. Let it be written here. I promise to eat better foods; oatmeal, veggies, less soda (I can't give that up completely sadly). I will plan to work out three times a week, since I am planning to quit volleyball. I need some sweaty time. Because in all seriousness, I don't want to die before I should. I want to live a happy and long life, get married, see the world, have kids, get wrinkles, and not die a virgin!! So I am taking this to heart and really making the necessary changes to become a healthy person. And hopefully lose my round gut.

Although I'm supposed to start taking fish oil pills. Yuk.

Until tomorrow!
