Today I am 31. Jeff let me open my presents this morning, whoohoo! I was pleasantly surprised to see Season One of Six Feet Under. The first time we watched that was in the middle of a blizzard. We just kept watching and watching the DVDs that I had gotten on Netflix. At one point Jeff had to walk out to Blockbuster to get the last discs. It will be cool to revisit Nate and David and Claire from the first Season. I also got Antoine et Collete, finishing the Truffaut Doinel series. My spelling is awful today, sorry.

There are so many things that I am looking forward to. First of all, autumn! Other things that I am looking forward to:
New Wes Anderson film, The Life Aquatic
New Farscape Miniseries in October
Crafty Bastards show (if I get picked!)
Trip to London in November
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind DVD (since I have only seen the movie once!)
bunch more.

I spent all night nightmaring again. Don't feel bad for me, though. I don't mind nightmaring. This time it was a Buffy episode. An all new one created by sleeping me. There was something about a zombie virus that turned this girl into a meaty skeleton. Buffy had opened a coffee bar and this zombie girl was trying to give us all the virus. I had to keep trying to shut her in a closet. Then we stomped on the meaty bones of the skeleton. Where does this stuff come from? These weren't really nightmares, but more like fast fast exhausting dreams. Oh, and it all started when I saw this friend from high school, Heather Turnrose at the coffee bar. I tried to google her once and nothing. Where are you Heather Turnrose?

People keep asking me, what are you doing for your birthday? It is weird because everyone gets a birthday every year, why should it be special? Well, the answer is that so far today I have been thinking a lot about the weight loss journey. This time last year, I had only lost 16 pounds. Now I have lost 64. This time last year, I made a shirt that said, "Invincible like the Eiffel Tower". I think it was more to convince myself than anything. I looked at that shirt this morning, realizing that not only is it way too big now, but I don't feel like I have to wear it anymore. I don't have to convince myself of my invincibility now. I feel it deep inside, at my core. So, that is what I am doing for my birthday. Plus sushi for lunch.
