More sleeping, less eating
Friday, May 15, 2009 at 06:59AM
While trying to sleep last night, the Giraffe and I experienced the following:
- a loud and endless car alarm (no joke, the thing went off at regular intervals until the wee hours of the morning)
- parking lot dwellers drunkenly carousing (ie: mostly yelling unnecessarily) late into the night
- his roommate getting home late, slamming doors, stomping around and watching tv at volumes you probably heard in Minnesota
Ah yes, just another restless night at the worst apartment complex in town.
In other news, I can't stop eating! Last night I ate five (five!) tacos for dinner. Then we made kettle corn while watching our Thursday night shows. But that wasn't enough, oh no. I also had to finish off a box of Girl Scout cookies (Lemonades - there were only three left, but still). This morning I've already eaten a bowl of cereal, half a Crunch bar and four Chips Ahoy cookies. And I'm already eager for lunchtime.
I don't normally eat like this, with all the crazy snacking, so it's odd. Pretty soon I'll be on an episode of Oprah explaining that it all started when I got home from Ireland and couldn't stop stuffing my face.
Oh I just found some old Easter candy in my desk. Gotta go.

My suggestions are as followed: slash tires, slash roommate. The drunks I would start throwing ice cubes at them, if for nothing else but your amusement.
Also, I think you could curb your snacking if you'd quit smoking all that pot. Seriously, lay off the weed, Cheech.
Usually when someone comes back from Europe and they're hungry all the time, they have a tapeworm. :) I wouldn't worry though, unless you snuck away to France for some raw meat.
Post some pictures!
Parking lot dwellers are the worst. They are so obnoxious.
Starting any post/conversation with "big news" provokes emotion! At first I thought *you* were the one expecting/engaged!
