My Monk Man

Today...Is a good day. Today is a good day for many reasons! Starting with me becoming really sick again. Now...That in itself wasn't good, but what happened after was! I called out to work, and got a doctors appointment. Once at the doctors I got the usual routine, weigh, walk, wait sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit....Talk, sit sit sit sit sit, done! But the sitting was spent more or less with me in the cold quiet room all alone talking to myself. " WHAT?? REALLY? NO FRICKEN WAY! WHERE THE HELL DID IT GO!" this of course referring to the 40 lbs that the nurse just told me I had lost since my last visit 4 months ago! I haven't been down to this weight since...A long time. I'm feeling great and now realize that it's not just in my head, that my pants ARE getting to big and that my cloths just aren't fitting the same. I felt crazy for not noticing that!

After that shock wore off....Somewhat, I begin to continue my search for an apartment. Haha, that's right, im MOVIN on out! This of course starting with yesterday me being approved for a car loan and me deciding NOT to buy the car because if I can afford a car...Then I can afford to move out and I need to do that soon enough! So after I got over being totally upset about not getting the car, I got really hyped about getting an apartment. Thus me all day sitting at home in my pjs finding apartments online.

Next big thing is that I got my wish and was put on a new drug. Forgetting names and remembering that it's just not that important, I was put on a drug to help with my Ho-Hormones as I would like to call them. This being birth control and it being the one where I get to have only four periods a year! SCORE one for the ladies okay?

Last but mostly not least...Robert.
As of the 16th, Robert and I have been going out for 6 months. This being no small feat in the long run, however, I think of it as a time in which we can talk that stoic look back and realize where we have come from, where we are and where we are going.

I have a feeling he hates these stories, but I tell them all the time, and because he's the sweetheart he is, he usually lets me....

When I first met Robert he was brand new to the Target culture and it was still awkward for me, a seasoned hit women to talk to the like of his rookieness. However, this didn't stop my curiosity, and to this very day, I remember thinking...How quiet, interested and curious his face was to people, he always had a look of question, a raised eye brow if you will, and that intrigued me. When we first started dating I couldn't place my finger on it, yet now, I have come to see, it's the curiosity that has kept us both together. We are creatures of habit and animals of taste. I want to try everything out, see it, taste it, feel it, know it, and from my view, that's who he is also and I find that even more intriguing. Call it self exploration, call it chaos, I call it the monkish phenomenon in which, you just can't resist to reach out.......And touch. ;)
