Only 25lbs... :unsure:

I am heavier than I have ever been and can't fit into any of the clothes I brought - I had to buy trousers especially for our Colorado trip so now I can wear stuff... Other than that I just lived in sun dresses that had elastic on them so I didn't notice... :cry:

oh man, I feel a bit better now; I'm facing the whole gained-weight-need-new-clothes issue too :wacko:

most of mine went on about this time last year - I was on a particular medication and gained a kilo a month for six months; THAT was fun :angry: - but a bit more has crept on here too, with less exercise and fattier foods and massive portions and all that... very depressing :(

Eric will be fine... I never pack until the last minute either (mainly because I'm still wearing all my clothes :lol: ) and I've never had a problem, or forgotten anything important :)

*still hugely envious of people who are allowed to leave America :( *

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

Don't be. We have to come back, which is sometimes harder than just staying. ;)

StP, never forget that you are, in fact, allowed to leave any time you want. Its the coming back that would cause you problems. ;)

And what's taking so darn long with your AOS?

Aww - he leaves a few days before you? That sucks... pity we can't come and keep you company for a couple of days while he is gone... saying that, Jeremy *does* have Sunday and Monday off... :whistle:

Luckily I have a few hoodies from my student days that are a bit more on the loose side... at least they used to be - now they fit snugly :lol:

I am allowed to leave and re-enter but can't afford to do so :cry: Seems there are a bunch of us who all want to lose weight - I don't know if anyone has found http://www.sparkpeople.com/ but we could create a VJ team and all get fit together :D

MY procrastination is as naught compared to the USCIS's procrastination :P

plus the fact that the authorities here don't like me :(

and yes, Dave says the same thing (about the leaving vs the coming back) whenever I mention it :lol:

but then I say 'you mean they wouldn't let me in, and I'd HAVE to stay in London? sounds even better' and he shuts up :D

Stop having a pity party for yourself, StP...I am certain the Texas authorities would LOVE you, as we do, if only they could catch up with your leadfoot self and spend a few minutes with you! Just slow down and let them get to know you. :P

Poor Dave....you always get in the last wicked word! :lol:

slow down? I drive so slowly it's a joke; everyone zooming by me on the main roads :lol:

of course, I'm always at the speed limit, so it's them breaking the law... I bet half the time it's T-Bone, going past as many times as he can and swearing at the goldanged furriners :P

and of course I have to get the last word... we can't have him thinking he's won ;)

And I guess if nothing else, I can enjoy my holidays, even though Jeremy has to work :(

Oh - if anyone is interested, here is our tree - I am sure I could get a better contrast but tbh I wasn't trying all that hard... if you don't look at it fullsize it doesn't even look that blurry :lol:

DSC03713.JPG

Ok - I am confused... the image code is in the post but it isn't showing up... owel... maybe it will sort itself out in a bit... if not you can click on this but it's the fullsize image so will look a bit lame :P

Oh - and the "interesting" lametta (sp?) distribution is courtesy of our lovely kitten :lol:

Lovely tree Aly :) I haven´t really started thinking about Xmas this year much. Actually I did long time ago and when we went to Europe we took all Xmas pressies with us and it´s waiting there for them nicely wrapped. So didn´t have to pay the postage :P Now I´m mostly busy with getting Baby stuff ready and going in and out of the hospital all the time :P

So looks like STP is trying to join my lonely "lost under a pile of dust" AOS waiting club :P If you can, try not to join this club :)
