Quite possibly dressing up as Dexter myself, but we’ll see about all of that. Anyway…I went and bought supplies for the cube dressing & I’m super excited! I couldn’t find any fake blood so I’m going to attempt to make some with the corn syrup and food coloring. Jesus be some arts & crafts skills.

So ok, they’re having a costume contest at work on Monday. Normally, I’m not here for Halloween…BUT THERE ARE PRIZES AND I LIKE TO WIN SHXT. Problem is…I’m also broke as shxt! SO. I need help brainstorming for a costume idea that is a) unique and 2) economical. I thought about making myself look like the letter ‘e’ and walk around reading all day. An E Reader…geddit? Again, you see my creative muscles are…in dire need of exercise. Any suggestions would be welcomed! Thanks!

Clarkson, Blige to honor soul cities for VH1 Divas
NEW YORK (AP) — This year’s “VH1 Divas” is celebrating soulful voices — and the cities where soul flourished.
Mary J. Blige, Kelly Clarkson, and Florence and the Machine are among the acts that will pay tribute to the places…
OMFG I need to go to this. Jilly AND Kelly? Listen man!!!!
My homie @ work says “Are you working out more? Have you recently dropped a few pounds?” I’ve only started back at the gym last week and thanks to this crazy week, it hasn’t really been consistent yet, so my answer to both of her questions were no. “Oh you look like you’re slimming down” was her reply. So I was all like this:

In true Jeanette fashion, I completely forgot about it until this morning when I was getting dressed. Since I was still au naturel, I decided to step on the scale and see what that do (as the young folks say). Stepped on the scale and I immediately went all:

Losing weight? Sheeeeeeeit, how about gaining it at alarmingly high rates. So high, in fact, that I now have to adjust my 30 x 30 list in order for me to make my goal weight that I had in mind initially. I never in my life thought that I would weigh as much as I do now. I am literally disgusted by myself.

Last week I read Portia de Rossi’s memoir about her struggles with an eating disorder and I swear fo’ GAWD that the eating/exercise regime on which she placed herself doesn’t seem so extreme to me now.
I would have never thought that one set of numbers could affect me so greatly, mainly because I never saw them as a possiblity. Now, however? i’m dangeously close to either acquiring an eating disorder or drug habit. Though, I don’t think either will fare well in my life considering that I’m the 99% these days…
::deep cunty sigh::
I gotta get my head in the game. In a few days I’m restarting a monetarily motivational weight loss/maintenance competition with some of my friends. My coworker has generously allowed me to share her gym membership with her for an indefinite amount of time. Though the winter is nearly upon us and I normally hibernate during this time, I’m determined to get my ass in gear.
Coz this shit right here?

I’m turning 30 next year and a bish has to be fiiiiiieeeerrrrrccceeee, okay?!
