And if my last blog wasn't enough, even bigger news. I've joined weight watchers! LOL! Yeah, I went to the Dr. a couple of months ago and he wanted me to join. I filed it in the "let me just forget about this" file. A few weeks ago the book keeper at my job was talking about it and then a couple of waitresses. Well, since there was no way in fuck I would go alone, I went with them as a support system. In 2 weeks I've lost 17.8 lbs. The funny thing is I'm not really following their plan. Yeah, I counted the "points" during day one, but once I did that and since I eat basically the same thing, I knew I was cool. It's just common sense stuff, don't eat crap and eat more fruits and veggies. I've even cut back on red meat. No excercise program yet, one step at a time.

I was more worried about losing Abigail! All the times I've lost weight thinking I'll magically get a gal. This time I was thinking the opposite, I'd lose the one I have! But she reassured me she loves me for me, be it I'm big or skinnier.

Myes, I'm still head over heels in blissed out love. We message every day and talk around 3 or 4 times a week on the phone. Her holiday was approved and everything is set for her to visit me for 10 days starting November 4th. I still need to plan on finding a hotel and such. No way my hardcore Catholic sister would allow her to stay here. I will be trying to work on that though.

I'm just continually amazed how everything has fallen into place. Call me sappy, but I believe what ever higher power there is had a hand in this. Or just call it fate. She's my dream come true!

Ah, any long time readers know of my insecurities and depression. I swear my mood is a 100 times better. She is the perfect drug indeed.

So what else is going on?

The Sheckies still don't have a bass player. We just played a show in Brooklyn last Saturday with Shane Problem filling in. And we're still getting show offers. Between Philly Dave from The Slotcars and Shane, we'll pull it off.

Work has settled down somewhat. Elmer and I had a sit down meeting and aired out some shit. I even got a .50 cent raise out of it! Him and Silent Rob are barely hanging on. And them using other people to do their prep and work for them 'coz they don't wanna hang around the kitchen is bound to catch up with them. I ain't saying a fucking word, I'm just doing my job.

That's about it. Now back to my blissed out love thang!
