i did not, in fact die.

although it has been a great deal of time indeed since i have posted anything, i am happy to report that i am indeed living. that is essentially the only thing i can report that will be following under that category of happy.

if you have been faithful to read the rest of my posts, first of all i would like to point ant laugh at you for having nothing better to do and second, i am sure you will recall that i was attempting to lose fifty pounds in one hundred and fifty days so that i would be all sexy and whatnot by the time i left for germany. as i am sure you have gathered what i am about to say, i will be blunt so as not to make you feel foolish. i have not come even a smidgen close to completing this goal. as always, there is a story.

as the end of another school year rolled to a halt, i began seeking summer employment. to my joy, i was able to pull some strings and smack a few people around and secured two jobs for the summer. one, was a job as a counselor at a daycamp. this was to be a short lived job for the month of july only. i would be on my feet and working all day so there would be little worry of eating too much. however, life always has a way of making me fat so i also got a job at Dominos as a pizza delivery expert. (their words, not mine. a monkey could do my job, it certainly does not require any amount of expertise) i assumed i would be allowed a discount and have no access to pizza free of charge and i was partly right. i indeed got a discount and am still not allowed to take food for free. however, working with the less than competent crew i am a part of has certain consequences.

whenever an order is mussed and cannot be given to the customer, it falls to the employees of Dominos pizza to properly dispose of the unsuitable pizza. this means a fat heard of obese individuals attacks the stack of pies and gains eight pounds in the meantime. also, Domino's is in the habit of trading food with other local businesses providing the employees with a second supper.

in addition to the copious pizza i have been consuming, my schedule being erratic as it is, i have taken to shoveling food in at every non-busy moment, not knowing when my next free second will be. all in all my life has taken a downturn in food quality. more to come, hopefully somewhat better

procrastinated

i have refrained from posting lately due to a busy schedule. this is a lie. i have eaten such tremendous amounts of food lately that i have been ashamed to tell about it. as the school year comes to a close, copious festivities require me to eat more in order to keep up socially. this is also a lie. however, the aforementioned festivities have only added to the detriment of my weight and health. i have taken to eating out with friends and not eating only what is only on my own plate but also the remainders if my friend's plates. then when i see an obscene stack of plates before me and i realize that only one of them is actually my own, i feel an overwhelming urge to vomit and run a marathon as a means of purging myself. instead i just ask the waiter to bring another basket of bread.

Exercise is still going strong for the most part. although the past two days have been slightly less than physically taxing in an exercising manner.this is due mostly to the fact that a train ran me down somewhere in the vicinity of my sinuses. i woke up with a head full of concrete and a body that had been used as a punching bag. i couldn't hear, see, smell or taste and my throat was gently pulsing and throbbing in a manner that prevented me from turning my head. my joints had been pummeled and defeated. therein lies my excuse for not exercising. actually, i'm just stopped up and achy with no sense of taste or smell which oddly enough has caused me to eat all the more. i keep eating as if perhaps the next bite will have some taste.
