Friday Freeday: Nothing to say ramblings

It was many and many a year ago
In a kingdom by the sea
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
by the name of Annabel Lee
Something something long ago
In the kingdom by the sea

I was a child and she...No, just kidding, I won't recite the whole poem.

Happy Friday!

I just read (and by read, I mean looked at a picture slideshow) that 1/3 of the Wrestlemania VI roster are dead. WHEN DID BIG BOSS MAN DIE?! Well, 2004 apparently, but that was my reaction when I saw that. Earthquake's gone, too! It makes me so sad when they die. They work over 300 days of the year, most have suffered some degree of injury, they get addicted to drugs and steroids, and then down the line, they're gone. It's crazy. SO glad I watched RAW after the Ultimate Warrior was inducted into the Hall of Fame. That was the last time anyone technically saw him.

Okay, darkness leaving. Christmas is in 6 days! I get paid on the 24th, which is great, because I still have to buy my mom and sisters' presents. They're all getting gift cards, but...ah well. lol (Mom just wants money this year, so I won't disappoint. She's hard to buy for anyway.)

It's only 9am right now. Ugh.

I'm halfway through revising the final section of my WIP. At this point, I just want to go for it. I envisioned myself finally getting a Pulitzer for this book and crying about how long it took and how many times I had explained in talk shows and stuff where this thing started and laughing at myself, and I REALLY WANT THAT TO HAPPEN.

I ate at least 2 pounds of sugar yesterday, so I plan on starving myself or drinking nothing but lemonade on one of these days. I'm terrible and slightly overweight, and I refuse to buy a size up. I need to get this weight off.

...Okay, I'm out of thoughts. Back to work, sort of.

Rambling is always fun. Sometimes it's just easier to get gift cards for people. I'd rather do that than get them something they wouldn't like.

Oh wow, I've dreamed about getting a Pulitzer too, lol. And going on talk shows. I think we have the same dreams :)

And I refuse to buy a new winter coat just because I can't fully button the one I have. I just need to lose a few pounds, then I'll be warm again...

Yikes, shopping on Christmas Eve! Want to borrow my steel tip boots?
Talk shows... *shutter* - you go ahead with that. I'll cheer you on from here.
Does lemonade cause weightless? I hadn't heard that before.

Trust me, it would be the most awkward but hopefully hilarious pile of interviews. lol

Lemonade and Grapefruit Juice help break down your food faster, so you digest them better. My cousin has done the "lemonade cleanse," and one of my friends would eat half a grapefruit after she ate. She lost 5 lbs, but got acid reflux. lol
