A Very Blissul Moment



There is nothing a bliss junkie loves more than traveling, seeing new things, living a different life for a bit...and when one has an 8-4 job 5 days a week, sometimes the only way to accomplish this is through the imagination...

Oh my love affair with good books...my boyfriend has yet to comprehend why I would rather spend an hour (or two) after work with this lover, who steals my precious afterwork time from him...

food...

I love food. To me there are very few pleasures that equal a good meal with good company. While I was "on hiatus" for the previous six months I chose to indulge...Paul and myself went out to eat 4, maybe 5 times a week. Cream of Crab soup, She-Crab soup, crabcakes, pasta, buttercream frosting snowballs...no whim did I abstain from. Now I find myself unable to button my work clothes from 6 months before and venturing towards...(ominous music)...the woman's department. It is impossible to be blissful with an extra 30 lbs on your frame...

So I have begun training to climb Mt Tallac in Lake Tahoe California. It is an 8 hours hike roundtrip and is apparently fairly difficult...but oh the views...



I have until the end of July/beginning of August. I am joining Weight Watchers. Getting a trainer at least once a week. And hiking. I drug poor Paul along for a reservoir hike with me yesterday...5 miles!!! But damn am I aching now. And of course the ribeye (and acai juice) I downed after the fact didnt really help my cause...a bliss junkie unfortunately loves to satisfy all her cravings which means this girl needs to grab some control and QUICK.
