Out with a bang Posted on October 31, 20086 Comments

I nearly had a little Rocktoberfest slip up with some crazy things happening this week, but since today is my day off I’m leaving Rocktoberfest with a bang.

I am resuming my mission to find jeans today. I didn’t make it to the Gap outlet last week, so I’m headed there today now that the price of gas has dropped so dramatically. (It’s about an hour away). I will not return until I have some appropriately fitted, non butt-flapped jeans to wear.

I did hit my first Weight Watchers goal this week right smack on the dot. I’ve lost 15 pounds total, something I never, ever, ever, ever thought I could pull off. I managed to do it at a fairly busy time in my life, so I encourage any of you who want to lose a few pounds to try Weight Watchers. If you have questions you don’t want to address here, e-mail me and we’ll discuss. I just have to set a final goal now, and I’ll let y’all know what it is when I do it.

The Modern Beau and I still have not decided what we’re going to be for our post-Halloween Halloween party tomorrow night. I do know we’re going to go with something that can mostly come from our closet. Y’all had some awesome suggestions on my costume post, and we’ve got a few ideas now. We’ll have something good.

I’m also nearing a decision on a computer. I’m going to do some shopping today and tomorrow, and I think I know what I’m going to do if the shopping doesn’t sway my opinion. Thanks everyone for some amazing insight into Mac v. PC. I may make a purchase as early as Monday (I know that’s post-Rocktober, but it will be a direct result of Rocktober).

I didn’t quite keep up on the Rocktoberfest pledge to discover new music once a week, but I still feel that my Rocktober was much more successful than Sucktember. The good news is tomorrow is November, and the November-December holiday period is my most favorite time of the year.

  1. Oh man, MG. So much going on! CONGRATS! You totally earned the new jeans. Have a blast this weekend and post costume pictures!

    P.S. GO MAC!

  2. Wow! 15! Awesome!

    If the party tonight sucks, you can always sneak out and make up for the new music pledge at Barley’s. Courtney and I should be there enjoying a couple of bands.

  3. Congrats on your goal! Fifteen pounds is awesome. Can’t wait to hear your choice for the computer.

  4. CONGRATS on the weight loss! That’s awesome!

    If you’re still looking for jeans, try American Rag at Macys. I just got some on sale super cheap, and they are sooooo freakin’ comfy — and I get sooo many compliments on them!
