Monday Boredom.2003-03-31 - 1:26 p.m. So I'm tired of referring to the man of my dreams as 'MW'. It's not like that's what I really call him, and it's also not like his name's a big secret. For the record, his name's Kurt, and that's how I'll be referring to him from this point forward. Although, that's not really what I call him either. I can't even say it with a straight face if I'm really mad at him about something. See - we're just not the "Kurt and Dawn" type. Never really have been. We're one of those "hon" couples. We never use names; it's usually just "hon". Until recently. Schmoopie Alert. Turn back now if you're eating lunch or just bitter about the fact that your lovelife isn't as grand as mine. We call each other "Honey Bunny" a lot. I can't remember which came first - it either all started when Kurt gave me a stuffed bunny for Sweetest Day, and I named him, "Honey Bunny", or it started when I started singing it around the house to the tune of "Money". You know the one... "Honey Bunny Bunny Bunny... Honey". Plus there's the two lovebirds turned robbers from Pulp Fiction, so yeah - not really sure how it started, but we call each other "Honey Bunny" all the time, and I'm in the habit now of pretty much just calling him, "Bunn". He doesn't seem to mind, and it cracks the shit outta Cam so I'm goin' with it. I cracked up the other day because he left me a message on my voicemail at work - "Hi. It's Bunn. Call me". He's so cute. So basically if you're still reading, you must be as bored as I am. Not a whole lot going on today at work. I'm waiting to hear back from my refinance guy. Seems something was documented wrong for my first closing when I bought the place so now instead of doing a simple Streamline refinance, we have to do a full-blown thing which requires an appraisal. Hopefully they'll be able to do it today; not looking good though. I wanna go home. I have things I could be doing at home. I bought a new mattress pad last night with Kurt at Target. I could put it on. I could change my sheets. I could clean my bathroom. I could cook something fabulous for dinner. Did I mention I made homemade garlic mashed spuds last night for to go with our poached salmon and peas? Yum. Never did them before so I cut up 3 cloves of garlic, warmed them up in a little olive oil, then added about a cup or so of milk, butter, salt, pepper, and a few chives. Let it all simmer while the spuds cooked then poured it in and mashed. Quite tasty. Have I also neglected to tell you that I haven't smoked since the last time I mentioned it in here? Nope - not a one. Really don't miss 'em either. Oh yeah - I started a real honest-to-goodness diet last Monday too. Nothing too strict, but I'm just working on not eating for 3 anymore. I start off my day with a glass of tomato juice with lemon and 2 Metabolife. Then it's fruit and cottage cheese for breakfast at work. Lunch is either nothing or a small salad with only the healthy stuff off the salad bar. (No more claiming I'm having a salad for lunch when in reality it's all the shit like the potato salad, and really fattening goodies off the salad bar.) I eat a normal dinner with Cam and/or Kurt, but just a portion fit for a regular person. LOL I'm not doing the Metabolife on the weekends, but it must carry over or some such shit, because I didn't really overeat without it either. I'll keep ya posted. I know. You care. Hasta! Looking back... Just Pix - 2005-02-08
